Wen<p>A fair comment about the weakness of the speaker of the House of Commons even from Matthew Paris. </p><p>Hoyle has claimed to ‘speak truth to power’. As his treatment of the <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/SNP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SNP</span></a>, Diane <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Abbott" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Abbott</span></a> and even Rosie <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Duffield" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Duffield</span></a> (although I disagree vehemently with her views) Has shown he is merely a lickspittle who should be removed from his position. It would also represent a significant saving in spurious expenses.</p><p><a href="http://archive.today/2025.04.24-205105/https://www.thetimes.com/comment/columnists/article/lindsay-hoyle-speaker-rosie-duffield-trans-rights-3qhth6hmq" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">archive.today/2025.04.24-20510</span><span class="invisible">5/https://www.thetimes.com/comment/columnists/article/lindsay-hoyle-speaker-rosie-duffield-trans-rights-3qhth6hmq</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Hoyle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hoyle</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/UkPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UkPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Parliament" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Parliament</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Abuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Abuse</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Manipulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Manipulation</span></a></p>
Wen<p>Sir Lindsay <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Hoyle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hoyle</span></a> on his foreign trips: ‘I’m speaking truth to power’</p><p>Bollox. A silly ineffectual little man who loves the sound of his own voice, although not as much as his wallet. A ‘speaker’ Who bends over to ignore protocol (the best the HoC has for much business) and has his eyes on his own enrichment.</p><p><a href="http://archive.today/2025.04.05-223043/https://www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/article/sir-lindsay-hoyle-foreign-trips-speaker-parliament-m7mwn32cn" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">archive.today/2025.04.05-22304</span><span class="invisible">3/https://www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/article/sir-lindsay-hoyle-foreign-trips-speaker-parliament-m7mwn32cn</span></a> (archived)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/UkParliament" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UkParliament</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/UkPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UkPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Pathetic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pathetic</span></a></p>

Hazel (She/ Her)<p>Labour's Excuses: Disgusting, Deceptive, and Dangerous<br>Lindsay Hoyle, Labour MPs, and Starmer's media outriders are all parroting the same duplicitous post hoc lies about how they had to debase parliamentary procedure for the safety of MPs. <a href="https://anotherangryvoice.substack.com/p/labours-excuses-disgusting-deceptive?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">anotherangryvoice.substack.com</span><span class="invisible">/p/labours-excuses-disgusting-deceptive?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2</span></a> <a href="https://independent-media.co.uk/tags/GazaVote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GazaVote</span></a> <a href="https://independent-media.co.uk/tags/UKParliament" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UKParliament</span></a> <a href="https://independent-media.co.uk/tags/Hoyle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hoyle</span></a> <a href="https://independent-media.co.uk/tags/Starmer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Starmer</span></a> <a href="https://independent-media.co.uk/tags/CeasefireNow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CeasefireNow</span></a> <a href="https://independent-media.co.uk/tags/DemocracyMyArse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DemocracyMyArse</span></a></p>
Lydia Conwell<p>I have to say, I have found all this palaver in the House of Commons quite engaging. It played out like a mini mystery with who did what for what reasons.</p><p>I have to say what <a href="https://exile.social/tags/Starmer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Starmer</span></a> and <a href="https://exile.social/tags/Hoyle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hoyle</span></a> did to hijack the <a href="https://exile.social/tags/SNP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SNP</span></a> motion is fucking disgraceful, especially when <a href="https://exile.social/tags/Labour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Labour</span></a> had plenty of opportunities to put forward a <a href="https://exile.social/tags/ceasefire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ceasefire</span></a> motion without having to sabotage the SNP's motion.</p><p>Labour will win the next GE because of the Tory vote has collapsed. But I so wish we had something better.</p>
