From The Economist:
“John Prescott, the deputy prime minister, chats with Mark Choueke, a reporter from the South Wales Argus:
Prescott: Where do they get these amateurs from? You’re an amateur mate, go get on your bus, go home.
Choueke: Are you too big for the regional press now John?
Prescott: Bugger off. Get on your bus you amateur.
Choueke: Is my interview over John? Because if that’s all you’ve got to say, that’s what will go in the paper.
Prescott: Ooohh, I’m scared.”
