I'm a bit confused here. Why does he need to resign?

For no reason obviously, but rumours are circulating that he might well.

More revelations about his private life perhaps ? Rumours of another women ?
Ridiculous obviously, but I guess the Blunket resignation sets a precedent if he was seen to be abusing his office, by for example sending the Jag out to buy flowers.

Even for the Tories, the stuff in that report is pathetic.
It's possible we may be forgetting one thing. The Falmer decision was an ODPM decision based on GOVERNMENT policy. There would be more shit to pay by reversing the decision (thereby wasting more taxpayers money) than anything else.
Personally, I reckon Prescott will ride this out, if you excuse the phrase. I don't think he has an embarrassment gene.
From Hansard:
Sir Bufton Ponsonby-Twatt (C): Mr Speaker, I feel the Right Honourable member for Hull East should keep his member to himself and do the honourable thing and resign.
Rt Hon John Prescott (L): Mr Speaker, I will do no such thing. In fact, if the member would like to meet me on the hustings, I will give him a chinning. Problem is, he doesn't have one.
See?

If he does go I am sure who either replaces him will soon be told by the local labour MP's and counciliors how important it is to say a big yes to Falmer.

Quite, in the unlikely event of his resignation, the duties for planning would be given to an MP (probably a current cabinet minister) who is already well aware of the Falmer situation, and if they aren't, they would be pretty sharpish.
Do you know what? I think it's going to be alright.

Prezzer won't go over this but will when Blair steps down as PM. let's hope Falmer's finally sorted before then...
I dont think Prescott will resign. But Tony Blair stepping down and Gordon Brown taking over might cause Prescott to be moved.
Once in Gordon Brown will have a re-shuffle and have his own cronies in place.
Having said that, I doubt it would make much difference to the decision whatever Labour MP was put in place. Someone like John reid would have a field day with those NIMBIES

Didn't Yvette Cooper officially make the decision, rather than Two Jags, anyway?
The Large One

Yvette Cooper was the government minister dealing with the case, but the Deputy Prime Minister gets to choose his team. The next DPM may move her on. Ultimately, it's the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister which makes the decision, an office Prescott is in charge of and responsible for at present.
So Yvette Cooper may or may not have made the decision, but Prescott has to agree.
