John Prescott

Asked if Mr. Prescott would still be in charge of the country in a few weeks, the PMOS said that he had answered that same question in the affirmative last week. Nothing had changed.

Asked if wearing a cowboy suit would help him do his job, the PMOS replied that he had not seen the Deputy Prime Minister in a cowboy suit.

Asked if the Prime Minister had discussed Mr. Prescott’s situation with either Sir John Bourne or Sir Gus O’Donnell, the PMOS replied that nothing had changed on that since last week.

Asked by the Evening Standard if the cowboy suit story was true, the PMOS said that the journalist could ask, but he was not the spokesman for the Deputy Prime Minister, and could only go on personal experience, which he had just reflected.
