ABOUT THE EVENT

John will also speak on his work with the China Task Force, an initiative implemented by him, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Premier Wen Jiabao and State Councillor Tang to deepen UK-China collaboration. John will be taking questions after his speech and will answer in his renowned straight-talking way. This is a unique opportunity to hear from one of the top names in British politics.

SPEAKER BIO

John Prescott is a former Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. He was appointed Deputy Prime Minister in 1997 and chaired a number of major Cabinet Committees. In recognition of his work in delivering the Kyoto Treaty, he was asked to work with the Foreign Secretary and the Secretary of State for the Environment on developing the post Kyoto agenda. As Deputy Prime Minister he also co-chaired the UK-China Task Force, together with State Councillor Tang. The Task Force was created in November 2003 by Premier Wen and Prime Minister Tony Blair to further co-operation between China and the United Kingdom. Mr Prescott stepped down as Britain's longest serving Deputy Prime Minister in June 2007 and since then has continued to take an active interest in China, including his involvement in a recent memorandum signed between his home region of Yorkshire in the UK and the region of Chongqing in China. He has travelled extensively around China and has visited China every year for the past thirteen consecutive years.
