What unusually harsh consequence did the complaints body recommend for Bercow's actions?

  • Fines

  • Termination

  • Expulsion

  • He should never be permitted a pass to the Parliamentary estate.

Answer

The Independent Complaints and Grievances Scheme (ICGS) recommended that Bercow should never be permitted a pass to the Parliamentary estate. This is a very unusual punishment, as it would effectively bar Bercow from ever being able to work in Parliament again. The ICGS's decision was based on its finding that Bercow had bullied and harassed staff.
