Mr Bercow made his comments in a speech last night, calling for a revamp of the weekly encounter which he says makes the South African vuvuzelas sound like a distant whisper.
In this connection, it was noted that at least one Caribbean prime minister used a publicly available e-mail address to receive comments and suggestions from citizens and these ideas were later incorporated in a weekly radio address to the nation.
Economic releases, which include new home sales data and weekly jobless claims figures, will be under increased scrutiny following Mr. Bernanke's comments.
