Peter Bone’s constituents have triggered a by-election and it reminded people of this John Bercow/Beethoven mash-up
After he was suspended because Parliament’s behaviour watchdog upheld allegations of bullying and sexual misconduct against him, Peter Bone’s Wellingborough constituents have triggered a by-election by meeting the 10 per cent threshhold for a recall petition.
NEW: Conservative Wellingborough MP Peter Bone loses seat after recall petition.

Bone, who strenuously denies the allegations, posted this response.
X users added notes.
We haven’t seen any sympathy for the former Tory bigwig, but we did see these.

Pretend you’re Peter Bone by not letting the door hit your arse on the way out. @TwopTwips

ANOTHER by-election triggered.
This time in Wellingborough after Tory Peter Bone was suspended for bullying and sexual misconduct, and the recall petition hit over 10%.
This, then a General Election
We can't afford the corrupt Tories in for a day longer https://t.co/RF3SMi0ehI

NEW: “Voters in Wellingborough trigger byelection after suspension of Peter Bone”
Peter Bone is one of the dinosaur fossil Brexiters. Would be lovely to see him gone. https://t.co/T5SFeLVvBG

Once again, we’re grateful to the very talented Rhodri Marsden for creating this brief but beauutiful masterpiece.
I'm now so obsessed with Bercow saying "Mr Peter Bone" that I've spent a period of time setting it to the opening of Beethoven's 5th. Brexit is literally driving me mad. pic.twitter.com/P5w31OWkWi

Finally …
Perhaps the Tories’ cunning plan is to lose all their seats one by one rather than all at once in a general election, so no one notices they’ve lost. https://t.co/j7LEB3mYkP
