Rejected petition Move a motion of no confidence in Speaker Bercow

Speaker Bercow on 6 February announced that he would disallow President Trump to address both House of Parliament. He was invited during a visit by Prime Minister May to America by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as one head of state to another.

More details

Speaker Bercow made his announcement to disallow President without consulting anyone, most significantly Queen Elizabeth II. It is also embarrassed the UK government which is seeking to win over the USA as it leaves the European Union. This is one instance of many in Speaker Bercow showed himself to be unfit to occupy the Speaker role.
