Boris Johnson referred to the shadow foreign secretary as Lady Nugee. Emily Thornberry is married to Sir Christopher Nugee but goes by her maiden name. Bercow said it was sexist to address people by the titles of their spouses rather than their actual names

It sounds like a primary school kid getting told off by a teacher
That's what it is.
The only difference is that John Bercow isn’t a teacher
‘And I’m not having it in this classroom’
Its like a show about everyday classroom but its only adults lol
Sounds like when I got told off in school
"I don't want to be unkind" you know he's about to put someone in their place 🤣

Fabulous. The Brits invented many things, but a proper, formal dressing-down is always my favorite.
Couldn't agree more
I believe they call that an interview without coffee.
Lankfield the British also created free speech yet we are the first to take it away from people
Oh come on Zaphod 5 - he said "Lady, the Baroness, whatever it is, I can't remember what it is..." That alone is obviously discourteous because it is deliberately diminishing, delivered under a guise of faux oratorical fluster as it was, but the main point is that it is not parliamentary procedure to call your opposite number on the opposition benches by a married title, but to address them instead, properly, by their parliamentary handle. I rather like Boris, but he was in the wrong here, and quite rightly corrected.
Another subtle point for the non-British viewers here who may not be all that familiar with the way our parliament works: the Speaker of the House of Commons is obviously the chair of the debates, but he/she is an ordinary member of parliament who is voted in to the role of Speaker by the MPs. The Speaker's constituents are often left somewhat unrepresented, funnily enough, then, because the Speaker is not allowed to vote, although it can be argued that the Speaker has some considerable input into what is heard and debated in the first place, which represents quite a powerful influence in itself. This Speaker, John Bercow, is a member of the Conservative Party, which is the party in government, and also, therefore, the same party of the foreign secretary Boris Johnson, who received the dressing down here in this video. Many conservatives feel Bercow is not conservative enough and gives too much leeway to the other side in parliament. I think he's pretty fair, but there's no doubt many don't agree.
It’s two years ago.
I’m not British.
I’m disinterested in politics.
Yet, UA-cam Algorithms put this in my recommends and I watch it.
I am also not British but I find these Parliament sitting quite funny. As an American, I only wish the House of Representatives did the same thing when POTUS is sitting on a session and then televised for all Americans to watch. Maybe if we hash things out there, we could probably give what the people want most.... DRAMA.
JK but seriously, I love British politics.
u uRangers of mm, mmm
"Disinterested" is such a typical Bercow word- that's where the UA-cam algorithm connected you two.
@@MichaelJ44 about ur existence we all agree
@@MichaelJ44 yeah yeah bugger off
John Bercow did what he is meant to do. Put order in the house. A fine example. Then you have Paul Ryan who does not speak at all.
To be fair, the US speaker is far less of a "speaker" as in commonwealthian parliamentary mono-cameral politics...
That said, this was beast. Hats off to Bercow.
@@Dingosean US speaker is better
so when he yells "order" then thats polite way of saying "shut up" ? :D
@Tom H Exactingly correct on that, sir. Mr Bercow is outstanding at his handling of the Office of Speaker. Ryan is inarticulate and incompetent to find his hat with it nailed to his head. That is truly apples and oranges.
Paul Ryans reticence was a merciful kindness to our ears , unlike the unfathomable babbling of the current occupant of the White House.
I love the people in the background going "ye" like "preach"
Ok.
Sophie Anders 😂😂😂
they're actually saying "hear!" which means they agree. (like hear-hear)
I think they were saying "hear, hear" i.e. I agree, which is the equivalent to clapping.
i don't think they say anything coherent, what they say is dictated by the sound it makes en masse...sort of a parliamentary drone
He shut that nonsense down with class.
Seemed unhinged.

No matter your political standing, John Bercow is one of the greatest House of Commons Speaker. Even his own party has tried to get rid of him numerous times. The man has huge respect from me and my family, even if he is tory he will tell anyone off. He is also one great public speaker.
he was tipped to defect to labour before he became speaker
he is such a badass :)
Agreed
He's actually a disgrace and will go down in history as one if not the worst speaker of the house ever.

On a vid I watched recently, someone in the comment thread described British Politics as Shakespeare crossed with the Muppets. I was really gobsmacked-can't improve on that one!
When he says “I’m so sorry” he sounds like a little child getting told off lol
I think the term is called ‘being polite’ apologising is what you do when you offend someone, maybe you forgot that?
@@tomsoki5738 it wasn't polite; he interrupted. And he sounded like a kid in trouble.
You could barely hear it.
"Would you like a cup of tea?"
The ceo of sexism has been fired.
The git that keeps saying “order” is the CEO of politically correctness, because he has a big role in politics and keeps saying rubbish like ‘using the word lady is sexist.’
User Name kindly point me to where he said “using the word lady is sexist” in this video
@@username5502 He didn't say that calling someone a lady is sexist. He said that it's sexist to call someone by the title of their spouse (especially since the person in question doesn't go by their spouses surname.)

Calling a woman by her title, how sexist. Clearly just an attempt by him to get Boris to stop talking when he didn't agree with him.
@@markhenley3097 that or would you like to be called a name that belittles all of your achievements? Done deliberately because she's a women

You have to give it to Bercow, he‘s the best speaker since Parliament has been televised
He's good, but Betty Boothroyd was a genuine legend.
He's not a spot on Betty Boothroyd!
Definitely Betty Boothroyd ... She was savage!
He's pretty awful
He's absolutely brilliant.
Did someone say roasted just before the end?
i think it was 'well said'
Pat fourfivesix yes I think you're right
Ha, I said that too.
I heard busted
Posh English accent. The words spoken are "Well said."
"I hope I've made the position extremely clear to people who are not well informed about such matters" Schooled 👏 That was one of the most marvelous dressing-downs I've ever seen.
💜💜💜💜
According to John Bercow’s definition of Sexism everyone was constantly being sexist towards the Prime Minster of the time, Theresa May. By calling her Theresa May.
@@TheSealOfTheRose your 'logic' doesn't stand. Theresa May has chosen to be called thus. Emily Thornberry has never chosen to be called, "Lady, the Baroness whatever-it-is".
@@TheSealOfTheRose No-one is referred to by their real name in the House, but by the _constituency they represent_ or their Cabinet or Shadow Cabinet position. _"The Honourable (or Right Honourable) Member for Uxbridge and South Ruislip"._ No-one calls him Boris Johnson inside the Chamber.
@@221b-Maker-Street I know. Then he should have left it at, don't call people by their name full stop. Calling a woman by her married name is no more or less against the rules, he had no reason to bring in his silly personal opinions about what is or or what isn't sexist to himself.
"...and I'm not having it in this chamber!"
Bercow is absolutely marvellous.
Boris: "I'm so sorry"
NHS & British public: "Too early mate"

Or udder 🐄
How tf is this sexist
So frustrating that these positive behaviours from the speaker are given absolutely nowhere near the same level of attention as poor behaviours from public figures. Bravo Mr Bercow
The former Speaker was incredibly impressive (at speaking). Alleged bullying or no alleged bullying, he should really be given a TV talk or politics show. Those incredible oratory skills should be out there entertaining and informing the public, and not merely confined to after-dinner speeches.
Bercow is a national treasure

And then he won and kept winning and showed Eurocucks what they really were
He is here and Bercow is gone. LOL
Love all the people who say ‘he was the best speaker ever’ or ‘he’s the worst speaker ever’ when really they have no idea who the other speakers were or what they were like, I’d be amazed if anyone commenting this kind of stuff can name the last 10 speakers before Bercow off the top of their head
That's most people for you. And they usually have the loudest yap. if you didn't know any better you would be bamboozled into believing they well in the know
I thought Baroness Betty Boothroyd served with distinction....Michael Martin not so much....but John Bercow is a total badass...the speaker the chamber needed during Brexit
Well, this Speaker is so badass that we talk about him in India as well. 😅

@TheEagle 1. The PM has no reflection @borisjohnsonquotes
@Trash Series Johnson is so morbidly obese and repulsive looking, he's like a British Donald Trump
@Siobhan Kendal-gre, Boris Johnson isn’t British, he’s American. He was born in New York.
I think that's the point. To get people like you asking your things. He really doesn't care, nor should he.
At least Boris didnt make it worse by saying those things from a sedentary position.
Boris sexist? No way! His own mother was a woman you know.
Can you imagine the current speaker of the house asserting such authority? I can’t ..
Brilliant. Just brilliant. Another epic moment from The Speaker, John Bercow.
What a wonderful command of the language how articulate and precious when pointing out a mistake.He carries a strong carrisma.I hope I could be like him
Charisma
Sexism is as British as fish and chips! I don’t see what Bercow is complaining about.
you know its serious when the 5 creases appear on his forehead
Bercow:
MPs: yeeeee
“We don’t name call”, what an absolute hypocrite.
1:01 “YEEEEEEEEEAAAHH”
LIKE A SCHOOL CLASS WHEN TEACHER TALK WITH A KID🤣🤣🤣
I love HoC lol :))
"Boris the Brush" looks like he just rolled outa bed!
The world needs more John Bercows
Hear!
I love how he delivered that speech without ever actually saying Thornberry’s name either
not really necessary. it's not the fact that he didn't use her name, it's the fact that he used her husbands name
I can't imagine that any of today's Speakers of the House would have the guts to call out the Prime minister in this way.
Speaker was spot on. Boris Johnson was being two-faced with his apology. He knew exactly what he was doing with his dismissive and sexist put down.
"Don't call people by their name"
"That lady has a name"
The Speaker's line of thought was probably like:
You should never call a member by their name, but even when you commit that mistake, you should not use an inappropriate/sexist name.
@@IndianGeek5589 since when "lady" became sexist?
@@jabroni951 You misunderstood, they referred to her a Lady Nuggee, which is her husband's last name even though she uses her own maiden name so it's basically misnaming her against her wishes and uses her husband's name. Which Bercow was not having.
Every time I watch the House Of Commons I feel like I’m watching a sitcom.
When I make a mild mistake in front of my already angry mom.
As a Canadian, I envy the articulation in British politics.
I wish there were a Clone “army” of Bercows to give proper dressing-downs to politicians around the world.
99% of them would be following trump around.
he cant even dress down Theresa May for doing exactly the same thing ...
Tia ha ha Bercow is controlled by his dreadful wife
No, he's biased as anything. But he's probably good for having a pint with in the pub.
How about instead I just mod my vehicle horn to go “ORRDAAAAAAH” like Bercow to replace the Beep, and make AIs to incessantly nag at politicians?
Like when a Roman general had a triumph there was a slave to whisper in his ear, “Remember, thou art mortal” over and over again to keep their heads in check (like that really worked).
Love him or Hate him Bercow is just funny xD
Bercow is the type of guy to be disappointed at his students after a substitute left a letter
Please remind why he became prime minister again?
Bercow we miss you - Ohhhhh ORDERrrrrrrrrrrrr ............😃
That was highly entertaining to watch! Never knew British Parliament is so much fun.
I’m sorry but what Boris said wasn’t sexist, it was disrespectful but not sexist. All this does is belittle actual sexism🤷🏾♂️
He was addressing Emily Thornberry by her title through marriage to Sir Christopher Nugee. As Bercow pointed out we know the Foreign Ministers name and it's not "Lady Whatever". He was doing it to belittle her. And lost.
Does he actively try to look like Harry from Dumb and Dumber? Lol
Trump is lucky that US doesn't have a parliamentary system. 😂
Yuppers but there would be no trump, because ONLY the popular vote would have the seat, LMAO!
He'd be ripped apart wouldn't he l've never heard such inarticulate speaker plus he waffles on when a couple of words will do in parliament they'd insult him by yawning loudly.
@@Yeolita All a UK Prime Minister needs is a majority in the lower house. The Republicans won a 47 seat majority in 2016, therefore under UK rules Trump would still be president.
Johnson keeps humiliating himself and the Tory party.
How can Boris hate women? His mum’s one

R VM oh ok I understand now
The Speaker is the only one present that can go ape as long as he sounds professional. Love it
Preach it, Bercow! Sexism is unacceptable!
It is a shame that I only came here because my German newspaper informed me that he will resign very soon. What a loss!
And what differences there are between our parliaments! I was never fully aware of that up until now. I will definitely watch debates more often in the future, then without John Bercow. Pity.
You guys have it easy. Have you seen the US Senate?
Boris needs to be talked too like this. Right now.
Wow. Bercow is a courageous politician. Well done sir...
Now that is a fine Speaker. Did his job. Did it well.
This guy was the best in parliament it’s beyond a joke now
Honestly, how can the guardian even describe that as sexism.
We need more people like Bercow in upper levels of every institution
Not many people like him in this world
Hello how are you today
@@Elizabeth-et1me dreadful
I’ve never understood why John Bercow always/frequently describes sitting as “a sedentary position” instead of “sitting”. Does anyone know? Bercow is a brilliant and funny guy, so there must be a reason for it.
I'm going to miss Bercow.
No wonder they got rid of him..
How in any way is that sexism 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Can someone alert the Serjeant-at-Arms because I think I just saw a murder in the chamber.
Need to bring Bercow back, parliament is an absolute joke and Lindsay ‘chocolate fireguard’ Hoyle won’t upset the establishment because he wants his place in the House of Lords, f**king embarrassment!
I wish John Bercow was still the speaker of the house
Roasted alive, lol.
Is he really trying to look like Donald Trump! 😂
Poop man
LokusHC is poop in his man
This is why Bercow was at times an excellent speaker and this is the real reason why the Tories hated him and nothing to do with Brexit. He was not afraid to call out the nasty way David Cameron and Boris conducted themselves in the House of Commons.
he handled it w such grace and class we stan
Just wondering if the honorable gentlemen Boris Johnson has any idea what a comb is...
If calling by name isn't allowed, why is the Speaker insisting on the use of a particular name?
Don't show your ignorance
Mirza Ahmed, he isn't insisting on the use of a particular name. The convention is to address members as "The (Right) Honourable Member for (Wherever). If you want to address anyone in the Commons you have to know where they represent.
Boris “I’m so sorry”😂😂😂😂😂
