Tributes to Prescott, a 'true giant of Labour'

Lord Prescott's family, who announced his death, said he had "spent his life trying to improve the lives of others, fighting for social justice and protecting the environment".

The former trade union activist and ex-merchant seaman died "peacefully" and surrounded by relatives at his care home.

Former prime minister Sir Tony said he was "devastated" by Lord Prescott's death, adding: "He was one of the most talented people I ever encountered in politics; one of the most committed and loyal; and definitely the most unusual."
