John Prescott was a giant of the Labour Party and fought for working people all his life. A huge talent, who rose to become a longstanding Deputy PM, he will also be remembered for that remarkable punch in the 2001 election campaign…

Fantastic to meet the great Chris Mullin and do a book swap - ‘How Labour Wins’ for ‘Error of Judgment’. His work on the Birmingham Six remains an inspiration to many, rightly so!
