Answer

John Bercow was re-elected as Speaker of the House of Commons three times, in 2009, 2010 and 2015. He is the first Speaker to be re-elected for a third term since 1948, and the first to be re-elected for a third consecutive term since 1857. Bercow's re-election has been controversial, with some critics accusing him of being too partisan.
