RIP John Prescott
In a career overshadowed somewhat by his impulsive punch of a bystander heckling him, Prescott represented the possibility that non-professionals could rise to the top of politics....
While its still possible (Anglea Rayner for instance), the wave of non-professional politicians being in Government has certainly reduced over recent decades.
Like him or loathe him Prescott represented something valuable for the British polity - class inclusivity!
