The wonderful thing about YouTube is that you can relive some memorable political moments. Browsing tonight, I came across this classic. You could pause the video and ask your students - what happened next?

I do miss John Prescott. His ability to reshape the English language and string several sentences together without drawing breath. He was truly a heavyweight political bruiser - as this clip demonstrates!
