John Prescott, back from his junket in Jamaica, and into hospital with a chest infection. His trip to Jamaica was extended by a week, at taxpayers expense, so that he could enjoy a family holiday. A Foreign Office source said:
"Prescott just doesn't care at this stage. He knows this is an outrageous junket and he knows that everyone else knows it.Which shows precisely Prescot's attitude to the British taxpayer, and his hypocrisy over claiming to be a 'socialist' with the interests of the working class at heart. Otherise he would be saving public money to put into education and health services rather than on junkets in the caribbean.
But his attitude is 'eff them because I'll be the one coming back with the effing sun tan'."
That he comes back from Jamaica and then ends up in hospital with a chest infection is quite amusing. (So long as it isn't serious, of course. Not even Prescott deserves that.)
UPDATE: Prescott actually has pneumonia.
