Apparently we're Mekons
by Paul Miller
I'd heard the rumours all day but have only just managed to listen to the piece on The Today Programme (Real Audio). Following the feature Tom and I wrote for the FT Magazine at the weekend and in advance of our fringe meeting this evening, Today ran a piece about the state of membership of the Labour Party and trust in politicians.
Then they interviewed John Prescott who said: "I don't accept all this analysis of all these brainies coming in... whether they're Demos... I call them the Mekons"
In case you're wondering, this is a Mekon.

You're right - looks more like someone from ippr to me. Typical of Prescott to confuse his think tanks... :-)
