Will glowing tributes be the order of the day?
But what will Nick Clegg say?
It’s going to be a strange PMQs with, I guess, almost every MP who is called paying their tribute to Michael Martin for whom this will be the final session before he steps down on Sunday.
The commons can be a sentimental place on these occasions and that’s what we will see today.
I just wonder how Lib Dem leader, Nick Clegg, is going to handle it? For it was he, it will be recalled, who broke with convention and made a specific call for Martin to go. Anything too effusive from him and it will look a bit odd.
Apart from that Brown is, surely, going to find a way of getting Andrew Lansley’s “10%” in and no doubt Cameron has got his plan for dealing with it. It will also get mentioned by most of the Labour MPs who get called – all a bit predictable but then that is PMQs.
I’m tied up all lunchtime and will have to catch up later.
