Mark Pritchard MP tells Speaker Bercow "You are not fu**ing royalty, Mr Speaker!"

Mark Pritchard MP attended Business Questions, wanted to ask a question and was penalised for nipping to the loo and accused of not being present.

Paul Waugh has the full story in The Waugh Room on Politics Home, it really is an excellent read and will cheer you up no end.

Nick Cleggs wins at Prime Minister's Question Time

Today saw the cringeworthy experience of people sucking up to the Speaker after slaughtering him yesterday, as they say, that's politics!

The best and funniest part of today's Prime Ministers Questions though was following Nick Clegg's first question. The Speaker forgot to call Nick for his second question. So, Nick Clegg stood up nonetheless and the Speaker came out with this excellent retort: "I thought there were two questions in his first one."

Nick Clegg, to his credit, laughing said: "Touche, Mr Speaker".

One of the funnier and real moments in the House of Commons.
