LONDON: Members of Britain's governing Labour Party are plotting to oust Prime Minister Tony Blair's deputy John Prescott who has lost favor since a sex scandal hit him last month, a newspaper reported Sunday. The Sunday Times, citing documents circulating among lawmakers, said Blair will be told by senior Labour figures that Prescott has lost the support of many MPs and should consider stepping down amid sex and other scandals. The Mail on Sunday ran photos of Prescott playing croquet while it said he should have been standing in for Blair who was flying to Washington on Thursday and claimed that Prescott's office "went to great lengths to conceal" it. Prescott has also been criticised for clinging to his 133,000 pound salary (247,000 dollars, 193,000 euros) and his "grace and favor" homes after losing key duties in a May cabinet reshuffle linked to revelations of his extramarital affair.
