    Default A plea toTony Blair – Please sack this stupid fat oaf!

    If your British it’s pretty clear who I’m talk about

    (stock photo)

    Mr John Prescott MP aka Two Jags, Two shags, Prezza to name but a few of his nicknames.

    So why do I wan this man fired. Well in short Prescott is an embarrassment to Britain. Hell as far as far as I’m concerned this guy owns Bush when it comes to embarrassing ones own country. Lets take a look at at his record and career whilst in government;

    1) Council Tax

    “JOHN PRESCOTT, who has presided over a huge increase in council tax bills, is being challenged to declare whether he is avoiding paying any council tax himself.

    Last week the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM) admitted that he was not paying council tax on his grace-and-favour apartment in Whitehall. The council tax on his official country residence, Dorneywood in Buckinghamshire, is paid by a charitable trust.”


    (source Sunday Times)

    2) Whilst pensioners get thrown into jail over unpaid council tax Prescott sits on his own £46,000 council tax bill


    “The Deputy Prime Minister admitted on Thursday that he had not paid a penny in council tax on the £2.3 million flat in Admiralty House in more than eight years owing to a misunderstanding between himself and his department”

    (source The Telegraph)


    3) He places the EU on the same level as our great country


    “John Prescott, the Deputy Prime Minister, will unveil plans in the new year to drop restrictions on flying the flag.
    The symbol, a circle of stars on a blue background, is technically an advertisement under current planning rules.
    But a move to abolish the requirement for people flying the flag outdoors to seek permission from their local council, will effectively put the EU symbol on the same legal footing as any national flag, including the Union flag or the Cross of St George.”

    (source Telegraph)

    4) Bus lane on the M4


    What kind of idiot would take out a lane on a motorway and put a dedicated bus lane on the M4? Answer, John Presscott.


    (Source http://www.cbrd.co.uk/indepth/m4buslane/)


    5) Hypocrisy


    “Morality is measured in more than just money. It's about right and
    wrong. We are a party of principle. We will earn the trust of the
    British people. We've had enough lies. Enough sleaze.”


    (John Prescott, Labour Party Conference, 1996)

    Nine years latter the headlines read as follows

    “We made love in John's office”. (source The mail on Sunday)

    Just the idea of any women finding that pig attractive staggers the brain. And it’s the last thing you to read about if your eating your cornflakes!



    6) A slimy pervert who gets off on groping women


    “Tricia McDaid, a former political journalist and press officer at Labour party headquarters, said the deputy prime minister “jumped” on her at parties and once turned up uninvited at her home, hoping for sexual favours.


    She said yesterday: “He just leapt on me at one party and his tongue was halfway down my throat.”
    Such was Prescott’s reputation, she said, that she resorted to wearing trouser suits to avoid his wandering hands in the lifts at his Westminster office. She added that she was too afraid to protest at the time for fear of losing her job.”

    (source Times online)


    7) When the boss has gone its play time!


    “The Daily Mirror says the deputy prime minister has become a "laughing stock" once more, after being photographed playing croquet during working hours.”

    (source http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/5026312.stm)

    Just when you thought this country couldn’t get any worse it does. Blair goes away and leaves the running of the country to Jabba sorry I mean Prezza. To make things worse Prescott seemingly thinks that’s its ok to play a game of strip croquet when he is supposed to be running the country!

    not to mention prescott has apparently been a unifying force between blair and brown

    His sole purpose was to bridge New labours centrist policies with labours traditional left wing policies. The left wing hardcore element of the labour party have tolerated the parties centrist position because Tony Blair keeps them in power i.e .pigs in the troff, but now he is unpopular the strains are more then apparent.

    God forbid we should have a trial by press.

    There are a couple of serious concerns in there but I will not be judging anyone based on extra-marital affairs or what some women has accused him of in the papers. In regards to the second point I just made reffering to sexual harrasment there is such a thing as innocent till proven guilty.

    Yes, but given that he was off playing croquet when he was meant to be running the country; when its alleged (as yet not even tested) he was having sex during office hours; etc, I don't think he deserves the job. How long he keeps that job for, however, is questionable; he's losing the support of Labour MPs...despite the support of Tony Benn's son, Hilary

    sex during office hours - innocent till proven guilty
    like el guapo, i wouldn't beleive anything you read in the tabloid press... the Mirrors big story today was that Keira Knightly wore the same dress twice in a week... my gods its not even gossip worthy, let alone newsworthy... yet it made page 3 of a supposed Newspaper...

    as for the ball game... it is in fact mandatory that breaks be given to all employees at work for certain amounts of time in a 24hr period... this even applies to ministers. its an EU law... amazing as itm ay sound, could he have been taking a break from work?

    geez, give th guy a break, trial press is hardly accurate

    I'd again point to the fact Labour MPs are calling for his resignation for incompetance as well as for being an embarassment. As politicians are by definition public figures in public eye public trial by the public press is 100% appropriate and logical.

    Does Blair even have the political power to sack him?
    He is an elected MP, isn't he?

    All he did was put the EU flag on the same level as any national flag, and this makes perfect sense to me.
    Why should people be allowed to fly the German or Irish national flag, but not the EU flag?

    And if this is "putting the EU on the same level as your nation", isn't France, Luxemburg, Italy etc. etc. also on this "same level" already?

    4) Bus lane on the M4

    What kind of idiot would take out a lane on a motorway and put a dedicated bus lane on the M4? Answer, John Presscott.
    And a dozen other European politicians because this won't be the first motorway to get a dedicated bus lane.
    Dedicated bus lanes are a reasonable solution because cars wil be stuck in traffic no matter how many lanes you build, and this way people at least get the option to skip traffic by taking a bus.

    Overall I think you read way too many tabbloids ('cos that's what most/all those sources are, correct?).
    I don't know Prescott enough to judge him, but I would like to see some reliable articles on him.

    He can be sacked from the Cabinet position that he was not elected to, and thrown out of the Labour party meaning a byelection would be held.

    Neither the Times nor Telegraph are tabloids...

    But the SUNDAY Times is, right?

    And the "Torygraph" isn't exactly a reliable source for unbiased information on British politicians.

    he can sack him from his cabinet post, which would trig a labour election for new depuity party leader, and he could possibly expell him from the party... but he would then sit as an independant, unless he joined another party, till the next election...

    afterall, a defection doesn't trigger a by-election... and his constituency elected him, not his party (despite the fact that most voters do in fact vote for parties, not people lol)

    I thought if they uit or were expelled from the party there was a byelection for the reason that people often vote based on the party? If not it needs to be changed!

    I like prezza.

    Think about it.

    Hes an old obese man with a bad temper.

    He loves curries, he loves women, he loves fights.

    Somebody in parliment who has a sex scandal and it doesnt involve young under age boys.... (cough.. tories... cough).

    Id much rather have somebody like prescott who is a lot more down to earth and ragged than some twirp who prances around on his tip toes incase he offends somebody.

    Lets here it for two shags!



    isnt anybody else tired of having MP's who just sit and backstab people and moan and whine.... prescott at least has the integrity to tell it like he sees it.

    there is no bi-election if a guy defects... why?
    because its a name of a person on the ballot, not a party

    Isn't it both on the ballot, and given that people do vote more based on party than person it could almost be just the party on the ballot!

    K_Y, he may be a down to earth bloke but he seems politically inept. He's gone from scandal to scandal and made his mistakes and screwups (as well as simple screws) on the way...

    So let me get this right...

    You say hes an ebarrasment, he brings down our country.

    But then you go on about how he puts the EU on the same level as us.

    So one minute your moaning cos hes bringing down our reputation, then your moaning that hes helping it.

    Pick one, dont switch between them depending on what side of the bed you got out of.

    Should he be anti reputation or pro reputation?



    Without him there would have been a labour civil war, he just seems inept becuase the actual stuff hes good at doesnt get reported on.

    After all, whats more appealing to the media:

    Blair and Brown calling eachother names and hoping the other dies.

    or

    Blar and Brown having a laugh and a chuckle and getting on?
