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!
Mood right now - Oscar Peterson and Sunday reading @newstatesman.com and Tribune.
You can finish Tinker Tailor, but it’s never finished with you!
Many congratulations.
