Prescott on climate change

Just heard John Prescott loosing his cool on the Daily Politics while being questioned by Andrew Neil about the Cancun climate change conference.

When asked why he was such a lousy role model for climate change - two jags, large eater, global-jetting carbon footprint etc. - Prescott answers that its about world poverty and social justice and the billions of people in developing nations living on less than $1 a day.

And there was me thinking it was about climate change.
