I think he's wrong. Shouldn't he be doing more serious stuff than that?

Just months later, David Cameron found himself in hot water when he made an equally ill-judged quip about Bercow being one of the Seven Dwarfs.

In a dig at the Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons, Mr Cameron said that Health Minister Simon Burns's driver had accidentally hit the Speaker's car while reversing.

When the Bercow reacted by saying “he was not happy”, the Prime Minister asked “So which one are you then?”

Mard-arse springs to mind !  :))
