Yvette Cooper – 2024 Tribute to John Prescott

The tribute made by Yvette Cooper, the Home Secretary, on 21 November 2024.

Such sad news about John Prescott. A campaigning Labour hero & a remarkable minister who transformed lives – upgrading millions of council homes, coalfield regeneration, tackling climate change. Fierce & warm hearted – there was no one like him. Thinking of Pauline and family today.
