He's on there now talking about phone tapping. It still appears that his mouth and his brain have only an intermittent link; he's stumbling over his words and putting together sentences that simply make no sense.

Has he been taking too much champagne with his socialism?

I don't think his IQ is that high..............

OP, nope, he's been like that every time I've seen/heard him speak on TV...... Does not appear to be particularly bright at all, which is worrying as hell when you think what he used to do!

Like Aboriginal didgeridoo players, he practises circular breathing: he breaths in through his mouth and talks through his arse.

Yeah, but all the NOTW got was a ton of orders for pizza & multiple incorrect attempts at a phone-in for a free holiday hehe

He only ever worked constructively when he was on the ferries, and that as a bar steward. This is why when he enters the House there are often calls of "2 G&Ts steward". Otherwise his life and "work" has just been a total waste of oxygen... bit like Livingscum....

Sticks.

Andy Coulson resigning has clearly fked up Labour's agenda on this

You could almost hear Prescott determined to blame the Tories for the whole thing but now Coulson's gone it's just empty ranting about "the Murdoch empire" who will not care in any case

I heard him on the radio the other week moaning about this phone tapping....he was saying that he'd repeatidly asked the Met if he'd been phone tapped. They kept replying 'no'. He's confused as to why they won't investigate.

Oh, fat face - there's nothing to investigate - you weren't targeted becuase you're a boring fat noob!

He just wants compensation. Clifford got 1 million from the NOTW. Galloway settled on a similar amount. Not bad for just getting you voice mail 'hacked'.'

Well,
I was watching 2 jags this morning, from 0745 to 1100, on repeat, on the BBC, as Mrs Mo had been admitted as an emergency to a surgical ward in Ninewells, Dundee.
Actually I only watched the replay twice, as stress and fatigue thankfully, along with boiling side ward temps, intervened to send Mo to the land of Z.
However I WAS impressed as the sly kunning dog managed to amazingly preempt the "impartial" female presenters questions BEFORE she had even finished her sentence.
As I thankfully slipped into the ether all I could think of was................

..............they REALLY deserve each other censored

Mo.

Don't, in these circumstances, waste your energy on wastes of space like Prescott.
Only Internet I know but I hope Mrs. Mo is ok.

If there was a case perhaps. There is as yet no case only a prolonged investigation.

Had this on in the other room whilst cooking breakfast so got the sound rather than the vision (at least I wasn't totally put off my food!). Thing that struck me was that I heard the phrase 'human rights' in almost every sentence as he whined on about his privacy.

Strange that our human rights didn't seem to bother him when Nulabour were planning and implementing all their (overdue and overbudget) massive databases of all our personal details.
