Let's make this birthday one to remember.

86 years old (Born on May 31, 1938)

Happy birthday, John Prescott! You've navigated decades of parliamentary debates and even the odd unruly egg-thrower. From standing strong as Deputy Prime Minister to championing Labour values for forty memorable years in Parliament—your journey certainly proves politics can be lively!

Your unwavering passion kept Westminster on its toes through ten remarkable years at Number 10's sidekick helm (1997–2007). While others measured success by opinion polls or grey suits worn, you simply rolled up your sleeves and spoke plainly. Here's to more spirited speeches, hilarious comebacks—and maybe steering clear of flying eggs this time around.

Cheers—we salute you!
