The Best Ever Put-Downs From House Speaker John Bercow

After announcing his plan to step down from the role of House Speaker by the 31st October, we take a look at some of John Bercow's most hilarious and best ever put-downs in the House of Commons.
Bercow has built himself a reputation thanks to his thunderous pronouncements of "Order! Order" in Parliament, and his habit of putting boisterous MPs in their place.

I simply adore how, even in the heat of fierce and partly very personal arguments, the British seem to be able to maintain their sense of humour. I wish it was like this in Germany.

[@JeffreyGillespie]

Lol If Germans were capable of humor we wouldn’t have had that “little problem.”

[@PutsOnSneakers]

@@JeffreyGillespie The problem of being so dumb to end nuclear power in favor of increased dependence on Russian resources ? Because so far that's the only relevant "little problem" worth bringing up instead of digging up and beating down that age old dead horse anytime anyone speaks about Germany

[@Fritz_Haarmann]

@@JeffreyGillespie Yes, of course! It's every German's fault, who has ever lived, that pressure and fear politics could achieve a dictatorship in a young and indebted democracy. And Germans not having humour is definitely the reason for all of this. Even saying Germans don't have a sense of humour is wrong. It's just a stereotype, that made sense in conjunction with the propaganda and rough sounding language trying and succeeding at dehumanising German people.

[@drno4837]

@@JeffreyGillespie Twice

[@NeovanGoth]

I think we Germans expect our politicians to be more like efficient governing machines than actual human beings, at least while they are acting in their official positions. Showing humor is perfectly ok (and even appreciated) at party conferences, talk shows, or the Karneval, but when a politician is in the parliament or speaking on the governments behalf, humor is often perceived as taking the job not seriously enough, anger as lack of self control, and strong personal emotions in general as unprofessional behavior. It's not an honor or so to have a seat in a German parliament, it's a _job_ and it has to be taken just as seriously as every other job. Also while the British House of Commons is a "Redeparlament" (don't know if there even is an English translation for that), the German Bundestag is an "Arbeitsparlament", which means most of the debates (and fights) take place in workgroups and committees, while the plenary meeting are more a place to present their outcomes to the public (this is also the reason why the Bundestag looks so empty most of the time).

"property or chattle", this man takes a word everyone understands and gives a synonym that is widely unknown lol

[@tumppu1975]

Property and Chattel are similar, but different and I'm pretty sure he got that reference from a law book. Merriam-Webster uses this as an example: "The program takes advantage of a New Hampshire law that requires all manufactured homes … to be titled as real property instead of chattel". Chattel is defined as: an item of tangible movable or immovable property except real estate and things (such as buildings) connected with real property.

[@Asklepios27]

lawyers would know the term from property law, fair number of MPs with legal educations.

[@asqures5541]

I don't think it's unknown, I've even seen it used in videogames, like in the Witcher 3 when you get interrogated by a tax collector, so even common folk should have at least heard it here or there, let alone MPs who often have Law degrees
