European Union (Withdrawal) Act

Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Speaker) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 January 2019. It occurred during Debates on treaty on European Union (Withdrawal) Act.

No, not to cross the Floor of the House—it was a nice try by the right hon. Gentleman, and I do not blame him for making the attempt, although whether they will be inspired by the prospect of sitting near him is a matter for legitimate speculation and conjecture. I was saying that Members should try to take account of exactly when they started speaking, and they may be assisted by their Whip as well. I know that it is imperfect, and I am glad that the right hon. Gentleman has kept his sense of humour at this time of night, but we will have to keep going to the best of our ability.
