Prescott was one of those 'old school' Labour politicians, I think. He had is principles and went with them. Of course, we can all mock some of his antics - punching someone (?), two Jags - but is that any worse than accepting free clothing from a donor, or lying on your CV that you were an economist when in fact you were a lowly paid official. We may criticise his ilk, but compared to the ultra-left and ultra-woke Labour party of today, he was a breath of fresh air and common sense.
