Not always Kizzy.
After Labour's Betty Boothroyd, she was replaced by Labour's Michael Martin.

I'd imagine Johnson will want to try to get one of his extreme hardliners in the post.

However as bitontheslide said, it's a good time to elect a new speaker.
Now Johnson has not been given his manipulatively dangerous way of getting an election, to help him bully his choice in.

Well done to the MPs who have stood against his deranged mad in power stance and hopes.
