Welcome to our live and breaking analysis of the Commons Speaker's statement. I'm Neal, although my display name will become 'The Speaker' when Michael Martin gets on his feet. Our Political Correspondent Joey Jones is on hand to analyse the Speaker's statement for us.

[Comment From Joey Jones]
Hello everyone, busy day! - Looking forward to trying to give a little bit of running commentary on Michael Martin's last hurrah.
