What the petition asks

John Bercow has made an impact on the world as a champion of parliament, he has attracted the attention of millions and done more than any other speaker to open up parliament to the people, he has earned his place in the House of Lord's many times over.
There must be thousands of hours that document John Bercow's contribution to the working of parliament. I hope people will support this petition and keep former Speaker John Bercow in the Palace of Westminster for many years to come.
