allegedly Mrs Sally Bercow wife of the Speaker will be taking part in Big Brother. I do hope it is not true. Does this man have no control over his wife? Does she not respect the position he holds?

Whats next on her agenda,Strip Clubs or Pole Dancing.I don,t think it Control that is needed (Straight Jacket would help?) but respect for the High Office in the Parliament of our Country.Obviously Neither of them have any.**M**

Control is perhaps the wrong word Merlin but she should surely respect his position and he should stand on a box and insist she looks up to him.

Good on her,why should she be empowered and oppressed by her husband just because of a position he holds ,,,,,shes a free thinking person in her own right and if its true controls her own actions. :-D

In which case she should respect the office he holds (If not Him) on behalf of the electorate of this country and behave accordingly.**M**

But, I wonder, just out of interest. If she was not the wife of the Speaker, would she be invited into the house?

George Galloway, Ice Ice Baby... Not exactly a good advert, dressed in a leotard playing at being a cat licking imaginary milk on all fours ....did anyone take him seriously as a politician after that ( many didn't before I know lol).


"February 2011 Bercow caused further controversy appearing in the London Evening Standard free newspaper wearing only a bed sheet and was quoted as saying "becoming Speaker has turned my husband into a sex symbol".She admitted in a radio interview: "It was just meant to be a bit of fun, but obviously it has completely backfired on me and I look a complete idiot."

Precisely..."a complete idiot"... and I advance as proof of that the fact that she would even consider appearing on BB...a platform ( almost invariably ) for the desperate attention seeker, those with flagging careers, or those in search of becoming someone famous's 'bit on the side' !

Sally Bercow reminds me of a lady I met some 30 years ago in a Stop Smoking Group. The first week she told all and sundry where her husband worked.

I came home and told OH - he worked for the same large international company and nearly had a fit - her husband was also a Shop Steward.
By the third week she was a 'born again non-smoker' so much so - she was asked to give an interview to the local newspaper about the joys of giving up smoking,

When printed her husband's life was made very very uncomfortable for a long time after by his colleagues - why? He worked for a tobacco manufacturing co.
