Short answer-YES.
The speaker of the house is a non parrot; he is ineffectual, mumbles and doesn’t seem to know what he is doing.
The no-confidence vote should be carried, and Mr Martin should retire,
Some people of course don’t want to make the decision Embattled Speaker to meet leaders “former Tory minister Peter Bottomley has tabled an amendment, saying that the Speaker himself is "best placed to decide when to retire from office".
No he isn’t, he is past his sell by date he has lost the confidence of the Commons and to be honest he never was that good as speaker.
Even Gord can’t bring himself to support Mr Martin “Prime Minister Gordon Brown declined to give Mr Martin his backing, saying that "the decision about who is Speaker is a matter for the House of Commons - it could never be a matter for the government".
Let us just get it over with and get rid of the mute speaker.

Well, considering that every lawmaker in the room was whispering, "better him than me," I'd say it's the beginning of the end for the status quo of British government.
