Interesting candid portrait, a very commonplace looking man but approachable, yet the eyes are wary -- good for a politician.

Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States

Solid portrait, Alun - well illuminated and composed. (forgive the Yank's dumb question - what's an 'mp' ?)

I looked up Mr. Prescott on Wikipedia, and the article wasn't very friendly about him, but they warn against Wikipedia not to trust everything it says. Anyway, I think he's a friendly and charming man! And this is simply a hell of a portrait (in the good sense:), could be the front page of Times!!
