John Prescott is taking his Battle Bus back on the road this May Day weekend, and is very excited about it!

John will be attending the funeral of legendary Union leader Jack Jones tomorrow morning – the whole weekend is dedicated to the memory of Jack – and is then heading for Liverpool with Eddie Izzard for the first Go Fourth rally of the weekend. Stay tuned for more details over the long Labour weekend.

Here’s JP getting excited about the tour:
