After reading that John Prescott "accepted hospitality" at Withdean stadium, including a steak and kidney pie and a glass of water on a visit to Brighton and Hove Albion, it beggars belief that Norman Baker has so much time to complain about such trivial matters.

Shouldn't he be concentrating on more important issues, such as the problems his party is facing?

If Mr Prescott had been given a fork to eat his pie with, I could understand all the fuss. Fans have to eat their pies without one.
