Perhaps Buckingham Conservatives will choose Mr Philips as the Official Conservative candidate?

Simon’s reply:

Himself of course! John loves John very much!

This could be John’s plea in front of the mirror:

‘Look at me! Hear me! Listen to me! Be impressed by me! Love me! I am so clever and feel so happy with myself and my superior intelligence! Please don’t hate me, instead give me constant attention because I’m John Bercow the self loving, cama, cama, chameleon; a man without conviction.’

‘I am a self seeking opportunist and disloyal I know, but please don’t hate me for it’ I can be all things to all people depending on who I am talking to or which way the most favourable wind is blowing.’ Don’t you think I have all the characteristics necessary to be Speaker of the House? ‘No!’ ‘Well my new labour and liberal friends thought I would be perfect in the chair of a future Conservative govenment. So that’s good enough for me’ I did notice one or two of them sniggering though after the election result’. But it couldn’t of been about me, could it?’

It looks like Speaker John Bercow hasn’t fooled as many Conservatives has he thought. If this little poll is anything to go by. The trouble is, I don’t think the Buckingham Conservatives know the ‘real parlimentary John Bercow’ as well as the people taking part in this poll; who are perhaps more interested in national politics than local issues. In my opinion so long as his name has the official blue Conservative party endorsement on the ballot paper or he has the backing of the Buckingham Conservative Executive Committee, they will be sure to put their cross in his box. But then they would probably do the same if Ronald Biggs the great train robber; had the ‘true blue’ endorsement! (The great train robbery was in the Buckingham constituency).

Unfortunately it seems the character of the person or his true politics or core beliefs doesn’t matter a jot, so long as he/she is the ‘true blue’ candidate; he/she will be elected by a large majority. Anyone standing against John Bercow at the next election would do well to remember this; if they are to stand any chance of winning. It is also worth remembering in a public poll just before the Speaker election, asked, who do you think will be the next Speaker? Only 1% of those polled said John Bercow. So please don’t count your chickens just yet Mr Farage or Mr Phillips or anyone else who decides to challenge Mr Bercow.

What Conservatives members think nationally is irrelevant to the unique conservatives voters living in the Buckingham constituency.

UKIP? What’s the point? Just another permutation from the fascist mindset. Why not take a look at something totally different? A party with some surprising and refreshing policies*:-

http://www.pirateparty.org.uk

* • Reform copyright and patent law. We want to legalise non-commercial file sharing and reduce the excessive length of copyright protection, while ensuring that when creative works are sold, it’s the artists who benefit, not monopoly rights holders. We want a patent system that doesn’t stifle innovation or make life saving drugs so expensive that patients die.

• End the excessive surveillance, profiling, tracking and monitoring of innocent people by Government and big businesses.

• Ensure that everyone has real freedom of speech and real freedom to enjoy and participate in our shared culture.

And pigs are already flying.

I consider my politics to be traditional conservative and I can say John Bercow’s change in his core beliefs from right wing conservative to trendy liberal, friend of new labour, did not impress me or many other Conservatives both locally and nationally.

Only a handful of Conservatives MPs supported him in his election to be Speaker but his new labour friends and the lib-dems voted for ‘their man’ on masse; to spite David Cameron and Conservative MPs perhaps? They knew John Bercow had very little support in his own party. Only a handful of Conservative MPs clapped when the final result was announced, most kept their hands folded. The many solemn faces on the Conservative benches said it all, as John was dragged to the seat by his liberal supporters.

John Bercow should of done the decent thing years ago, and crossed the floor, to join his new labour chums, instead he had another long standing plan; that we didn’t know of; to be elected Speaker of the House of Commons. He certainly will not welcome the news that a well known right of centre politician, like Nigel Farage is going to stand against him. The big question will be: Will traditional Conservative voters of the Buckingham constituency support the official Conservative candidate John Bercow; who actually was much closer to New labour and the Liberal Democrats in recent years or will they break the habit of a life time and vote for a well known UKIP candidate; who actually holds far more conservative views and beliefs than the official Conservative candidate.It will certainly be very interesting contest!

It’s a pity Aston Clinton will not be in the Buckingham constituency at the next election, as a traditional conservative, I certainly would not vote for John Bercow having watched him closely over the years and followed his liberal/ new labour voting record in the House of Commons. However, I will be happy to support David Lidington in the Aylesbury constituency. I am just so pleased that liberal opportunist John Bercow will no longer be the Conservative candidate for Aston Clinton.
