Covered John Prescott and the Rhyl flying egg for the Indy back in 2001. Much amusement and little outrage anywhere, as I remember it. Imagine Rayner attempting a left jab today. She’d be dust. Yes, RIP JP 🌹
2001. Labour Manifesto Launch.

Deputy PM John Prescott is hit by an egg after encountering pro-fox-hunting protesters in Rhyl.

He responds with a left jab.

Prescott later tells Blair 'well you asked me to go out and connect with the electorate'.

RIP JP 🌹🌹🌹

Maybe I’m wrong, but Raheem Sterling doesn’t seem to command huge popularity. Perhaps because of how he left Liverpool and the fact he was never the shining light at City? But respect for the real work he does in the shadows, outside of football, no PR attached…

Starting on here with some blue sky. I’ll post on sport, media and sometimes the real world beyond all that. I’ll link to my reporting on here too. This is proper Anglesey sky by the way 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
