Blair's Deputy PM in trouble again - more ties to Christian right extremism



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

John Prescott somehow managed to maintain his role as Deputy PM after his extended affair became public but now he appears to have gone too far for those in the Labour Party who still have a spine left. Prescott has had numerous secret meetings with American billionaire and radical right extremist Philip Anschutz to discuss plans for unloading the Millennium Dome and turning it into a casino, despite repeatedly saying otherwise.

This is just another example of the UK and the Blair crowd getting cozy with the hate-filled extremists from the US. Anschutz, who keeps a low profile, has spread his cash across the US to fund anti-gay legislation, anti-evolution/pro-creationism think tanks as well as anti-liberal attack organizations. Funny to see that Prescott's new mate is so right wing, yet pro-gambling. Interesting how that all works.

Let's see if Labour can find its roots again and unload Prescott and the cozy ties to the American wingnuts.
