    John Prescott was instrumental in negotiating the 1997 Kyoto Protocol on climate change. He brought two factions of the Labour Party together, and had he not, it would have been unelectable. He called out injustice frequently. He was not perfect, but achieved more than me or the many keyboard-warriors. He will be missed.

      The man should never have been allowed in politics, 40 years as a MP in Hull and it’s still a shithole well done John , many keyboard warriors do a good honest job and are entitled to an opinion about any politician , he was an abject failure and we had to suffer the fat rude c++nt too long, he called out injustice to hide the fact the biggest injustice was him in his position.

    It is forgotten that the 'protester' assaulted Prescott first!
    Was he supposed to not defend himself just because he is a politician?
    In his autobiography, he stated that the egg yolk was warm and he initially thought it was his own blood so he lashed out defensively - a totally human instinct.

      Any man who takes us into an unjustified war and brings privatisation to public services is a Tory, whether now or in the 90s. Margaret Thatcher once said her greatest accomplishment is that Labour leaders adopted her policies and Neoliberalism, and she was talking directly about Tony Blair and New Labour. Don't let his end fool you: the mess our social services are in now was because Labour after Thatcher embraced neoliberalism and abandoned any idea that the state should look after its citizens.

    As a human being, I will say that from a humanitarian point of view , I would never take any satisfaction from hearing someone had died, and my deepest sympathy is for his family. On a political level, I have to say that this man was the epitome of everything that is wrong with the Labour party and their socialist/communist sentiments. He was uncouth and somewhat thuggish in his demeanour as he so publicly demonstrated by punching a protester !! - Just what you would expect from the deputy Prime Minister of the UK ?? sounds like a bit of deja vu in reverse. He was an integral part of the Blair war mongering machine, which like the current lot, lied through their teeth about most things ?

    Of course, without Prescott's help Brighton and Hove Albion would not have risen from the flames. Prescott personally approved the building of the new stadium! Thanks John!

    He was a real character and a great politician. I remember him being a regular guest on Central Weekend Live. God bless you John. Condolences to Pauline and all of the family. ♥️
