Betty Boothroyd, first female House of Commons speaker, aged 92. A no nonsense Yorkshire lass, who kept the house in good order. RIP Betty x



Her name alone is enough to send shivers down your spine, may she Rest in Peace.

 I used to know the previuos MP for Colchester, Bob Russell, quite well. As he was always bringing Colchester up in speeches and questions he raised in the house, one day, Betty called him Mr Colchester, MP for Russell
Bit of useless information for the day ;)

Shame about Paul O'Grady couldn't stand his drag act but loved his attitude towards animals, i believe he knew that he was on " borrowed time" may he Rest in Peace.
