Prescott faces new inquiry over link with developer
By Rajeev Syal
JOHN PRESCOTT came under renewed scrutiny yesterday after it emerged that he had visited the office of a wealthy property developer before giving planning permission for a £50 million building project.
The Deputy Prime Minister opened the offices of Adenstar Construction, a property company owned by Derek Chapman, in 2002, The Sunday Telegraph reports. In October Mr Prescott overruled the advice of two planning officers to give the go-ahead for Mr Chapman, a director of Brighton and Hove Albion, to build an all-seater stadium for the football club in the village of Falmer, near Lewes, East Sussex.
The disclosure will increase pressure on Mr Prescott to resign. He is due to take charge of the country this week, when Tony Blair goes on holiday, despite continuing controversy over his links to Philip Anschutz, the US billionaire who owns the Dome.
He may also be interviewed by police investigating allegations of corruption.
