Britain's new Commons Speaker, John Bercow, speaks in his office at the House of Commons in Westminster, London June 23, 2009. Hopes that a new Commons Speaker would start restoring public faith in politics after the damaging expenses scandal were dashed on Tuesday after a Conservative MP called Bercow's election a "two-fingered salute" to the public.Backbencher Nadine Dorries said only three Conservatives had voted for fellow-party member Bercow, whose accession to the Speaker's chair was greeted by sullen silence from Tory benches.
