New candidates selected in Buckingham, Newport, Brecon, Workington, Chester and Warrington

John Bercow’s constituents aren’t alone in looking forward to the seat getting a normal MP once more.

Bobby Friedman: Enough is enough. The Conservatives must put up a candidate against Bercow in Buckingham.

The reasons not to do so are threadbare. And he has merrily torn up plenty of other conventions in the process of his partisan Speakership.

Anthony Seldon: It’s high time universities put their students first

More widespread availability of two-year degree courses would be a good start.

Nick Hillman: Voters in Buckingham deserve a real say and a real MP

I like John Bercow – indeed, I’ll vote for him. But the Speaker of the House shouldn’t represent a constituency – doing so disenfranchises thousands of people.
