Does he want a no-deal Brexit? Or is he just stupid?

Bercow issues fresh warning over third vote on May's Brexit deal

His achingly tight-assed adherence to centuries old precedent is obstructing resolution, and his putting the alternatives up for a vote separately, one at a time, and once each was the stupidest way to force this Parliament to come to agreement on something.

Pretty much guaranteed not to work.

He could have put the eight up for a vote, then dropped the one with least votes and got another vote on the other seven, and so on until only one was left standing, and that would almost certainly not have turned out to be no-deal Brexit.

But of course that dumbass ancient precedent was sooooo much more important than preventing a no-deal Brexit from happening, not by choice, but because this Parliament is full of jackasses who are so relentless in their stupidity that every time they are asked they reject every alternative open to them.

And a no-deal Brexit is what happens by default, whether they want it or not (and of course a majority don't and have voted against that), if they don't agree on something else.

This Parliament rejects reality.

So, goddammit, a little creativity is called for from the speaker.
