I have edited this article extensively for four reasons:

• 1) Bercow was refered to as "John". This is inappropriate when writing an article about someone who most readers will not personally.
• 2) Bercow was refered to as being an Opposition Spokeperson - this is the wrong terminology.
• 3) The list of his appointments read like a shopping list.
• 4) It omited his clashes with IDS
