UNLIKE reader G Alderson (June 10) I feel John Prescott was justified with his V-sign to Downing Street journalists and photographers.
If some members of the media are so ill-mannered as to ask a question by shouting it across the street, they deserve a silent, but clear, response. The Deputy Prime Minister did just that.
My impression of the Downing Street "incident" was that it was just lighthearted jousting and I don't think anyone present was offended.

...IF George Bush is flying in Air Force One, his official private jet, and Tony Blair does likewise in Blair Force Too, will 'Two Jags' Prescott be flying a V-Bomber?
