Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott will not forget his visit to Hove in a hurry.

The two Rover cars in his entourage were given £30 tickets, he was jostled and heckled and one man tried to grab the microphone he was speaking into while another heckled, "Two Jags, Two Jags".

But the former cabin steward took it all on the chin and came away smiling, even though his party was left £60 out of pocket.

Can he afford to make a return trip to Hove again?
