Ask the Speaker is a thread for the Model House of Commons. It is used by members to question and scrutinise the Speaker of the Commons, though it can also be used to question the Deputy Speaker of the Commons.
The thread is run by the Speaker, who is responsible for answering questions and maintaining order in the thread.
In June 2009, the first Ask the Speaker thread was set up by DayneD89. Since then the thread has become a pivotal part of the speakership role, being used by every speaker to answer the questions of MPs and other members.
