At the funeral of former Deputy Prime Minister Lord John Prescott, tributes flowed from both past and present Labour leaders. Held at Hull Minster, the event saw Sir Tony Blair and Gordon Brown celebrate Prescott’s legacy. Brown hailed Prescott as a working-class hero who navigated through tough times and described him as a unique figure, stating that his qualities are unlikely to be seen again. Prescott's impact on the Labour Party and his commitment to serving the people were central themes in the remembrances shared at the service.
We will never see his like again. A man of the people he certainly was, in a class by himself, a one-off.
Mr Brown paid tribute to Lord Prescott as a working class hero who kept the show on the road during difficult times.
