John Bercow is serving his last day as the UK House Speaker after a decade in the chair. Mr Bercow was elected to the post in 2009 - replacing Michael Martin - supported largely by Labour MPs rather than his own side. His bellowing and scolding from the chair gained him notoriety in the role, which was met with disdain and enthusiasm. His relationship with his former party was often tenuous but it has been his role in parliament during Brexit that has produced great controversy, with Brexiteers often claiming he was seeking to undermine the process.
