More on Prescot....

[Loosehead]

Does the panel think that Prescot's affair gives hope to fat ugly blokes everywhere?

[gary baldy]

Apparently it comes from the Irish for mane or long hair - mongach.

[Catso]

To answer the question: yes! Whoopee!

Though I have to say, out of the whole shower we have in government now, I think he's the most honest.

[Bluebell]

I wonder if Pauline Prescott's would agree with the comment that her husband is honest!

Ten years ago, John Prescott trumpeted that ' the Tories had the audacity to talk about morality, and how we, ( the Labour Party) are a party of principle.'

Morals, principles, honesty? None of those words can apply to this cheating, inarticulate, incompetent Deputy Prime Minister.

[LeMarchand]

"There's no such thing as an ugly wallet" as someone pointed out on another forum when I was questioning why the gorgeous-but-evil Indian regent in the recent "Sharpe" was (in real life) married to Salman Rushdie!

[Catso]

Bluebell: I said 'most honest' not actually honest. I agree with you that, no, he isn't completely honest, obviously.

[gazzawazza]

Now we know why he couldn't get out of bed to sanction an end to the fire strike in 2003 when the FBU and the bosses had agreed a settlement. He was too blooming knackered!

[Bluebell]

Apologies Catso. I was firing on all cylinders this morning, I failed to see the humour and irony in your comment.

Compared to Mandelson and Blunkett, Prescott probably is the most honest.

On second thoughts.......Nah!
