You couldn't make it up!

Ok, I know it's from the Daily Mail, has anyone got anything positive to say about this article?http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles /news/news.html?in_article_id=429595&in_page_i d=1770&in_page_id=1770&expand=true#StartCommen ts

lots of people have websites these days, setting out their achievements, their favourite bands, their millions of 'friends', etc; I think it's this new internet thingy. Any particular reason why Prescott shouldn't? (Obviously, his many enemies will devote a lot of their spare time to complaining about it, but that keeps them happy too.)

my point is....or rather my question is, how could Prescott have the gall to set up a website listing his 'achievements'?
I think everyone has their own opinion on this excuse for a politician (my opinion).

If it's in the Mail, then they probably di make it up!

I take it you've actually been to this site?

The mail don't want you too obviously because they've not given it. The Telegraph do it's www.dpm.gov.uk

Yes that's right it's an official government department website - not some private thing that Prescott's set up to snipe at people, which is what the mail makes it sound like.

It's actually an incredibly boring site - which you'll see if you actually look at it.

A complete non-story unless you're either obsessed with government infighting, desperate for colum inches or totally dedicated to attacking Prescott at any cost.

So that'd be the Mail (and to a lesser degree the Torygraph) then
