New Labour endorse Met Chief cover up

In what could be interpreted as a big strategic error, or portent of true corruption and another impending whitewash, deputy Prime Minister, John "Two Jags" Prescott ties the New Labour Party into support for discredited Met Chief Sir Ian Blair:

Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott has given his full support to Metropolitan Police chief Sir Ian Blair over his handling of the Stockwell Tube shooting.

However Prescott criticised the way the force offered compensation to the family of Jean Charles de Menezes in a letter, saying it would be "terrible" if the reports were true.

Whitewash coming? Or diplomatic talk for you will be sacked after the enquiry or will New Labour sink with Sir Ian Blair ?
