Chris Huhne and Norman Lamb lead LibDem calls for Speaker to quit
By Mark Littlewood
Chris Huhne (on Newnsight) and Norman Lamb have now both come out calling for the Speaker to go – with Norman making it plain that he will back Douglas Carswell’s motion.
Michael Martin’s days are surely numbered.
It’s important for the LibDems to steal a march on the Tories here, and for Nick Clegg to endorse and reinforce the calls of his two frontbench spokesmen.
Another Julian H augmentation: Betty Boothroyd is, allegedly, “just appalled at the way Martin has behaved”. This comes via the Daily Mail via Bernard Salmon’s Sound of Gunfire blog. Which reminds me that Bernard is an enlightened Wenger sympathiser, and I will therefore add him to our links. Done.
