As the UK tries to continue life under coronavirus lockdown, many parents have been finding ways to continue their children's physical and academic education. Popular fitness coach Joe Wicks
has started posting daily PE lessons for kids and parents in a bid to keep the nation active during the crisis. However, when former Speaker of the House, John Bercow, decided to join in
with his children, he received ridicule online.
Political journalist John Stevens posted the video to Twitter with the caption: "Look at Bercow go!"
In the video, Mr Bercow and his three children can be seen following the exercise on their TV.

Ross Taylor replied to the post, saying: "Look at him go indeed! Barely getting through it!"
Another user wrote: "Nice to see Bercow far far away from Parliament."
However, Katie wasn't as impressed: "This guy is still around? Let's move on!"
Jerry Hangold also said: "This is hilarious. He's much more of a hoot outside the Speaker's chair."

Mr Bercow became a controversial figure near the end of his time as Speaker.
Many Brexiteers saw him as deliberately stalling the Brexit process by taking unprecedented action in the House of Commons.
Mr Bercow was succeeded last year by Labour's Sir Lindsay Hoyle.

It has been tradition for hundreds of years that the Speaker of the House is given a peerage after their tenure.
However, when the New Years Honours list rolled around, Mr Bercow's name was notably absent.
The snub was also possibly attributed to the allegations of bullying still swirling around the ex-MP.
MPs and Commons staff have accused the former Speaker of intimidating behaviour.
