Alternative Vote Debate: Prescott on manifestos commitments under AV
Manifesto commitments would be irrelevant under an AV system leading to a coalition agreement "that no-one voted for" where it would be harder for a vote of no confidence to remove a government, said former Labour deputy leader John Prescott.
He was taking part in the Daily Politics AV Debate - airing on BBC Two on Wednesday April 6 and BBC News Channel on Friday April 6, and on iPlayer.
