A DOSSIER outlining alleged bullying by John Bercow is to be lodged to help stop his peerage, we can reveal.
A top Commons clerk is compiling a first-hand account of the ex-Speakers supposed behaviour.
The dossier runs to ‘dozens’ of pages and catalogues five long years of alleged abuse by Mr Bercow
It will centre on Mr Bercows alleged treatment of Angus Sinclair, his former private secretary, and Kate Emms.
Mr Sinclair, given compulsory early retirement, has already broken a non-disclosure agreement to claim he faced outbursts and foul language.
He said Mr Bercow, who stepped down in October, was prone to over-the-top anger.
Friends of former aide Kate Emms say she was shouted at and undermined.
A source said: First-hand knowledge of how these two were treated will be put down in writing and sent to the relevant authority. Three complaints are ready to go in.
It comes as former chief clerk of the Commons Lord Lisvane filed a formal complaint said to centre on the bullying of staff.
Former Black Rod David Leakey urged other complainants to come forward.
He said: My opinion is that he brutalised staff in the House of Commons and elsewhere, including myself. It wasnt just those top people, it was people much further down the pecking order.
Mr Bercow, nominated for a peerage by Labour chief Jeremy Corbyn, categorically denies Lord Lisvanes allegations.
No.10 called them very concerning.
Nominations for the Lords are vetted by the House of Lords Appointments Commission.
If it advises against, the name would not be put to the Queen.
Lord Lisvane submitted a lengthy dossier on John Bercow’s alleged bullying to Parliament’s watchdog
