John Prescott, the British Deputy Prime Minister, is involved in a huge political scandal, because he accepted the hospitality of the American multimillionaire Philip Anschutz who intends to install the first supercasino in the so-called Cupola of the Millennium in the city of London.

It is not the first time this member of the Labor Party has been involved in problems and Prescott, who is supposed to be dedicated to the promotion of supercasinos, is the target of a parliamentary investigation because of his friendship with Anschutz.

John Prescott recognized that he was a guest in the private ranch the multimillionaire has in the Rocky Mountains and assured that, even though they met seven times, they never discussed political issues.

The British Deputy Prime Minister insists that he hasn’t participated in the decisions about the future of the Cupola of the Millennium or in the negotiations with Anschutz for the sale of that gigantic structure placed on the east side of the city of London. This star project of the New Laborite has become an economic fiasco.
