Prescott

Patrick Henessy has an excellent appraisal of John Prescott's massacre of the English language for Radio 4 on http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/patrick__hennessy_/blog/2009/05/02/john_prescott_the_bruiser_is_back

including 'I undressed 450 students yesterday with Ed Miliband and Eddie Izzard' although my favourite is when he got off a plane from Tokyo and announced 'It's great to be back on terra cotta'. Now we don't have the embarrassment of him holding a senior office of state he has become a national treasure.
