'All roads lead to Prescott'

"...rebels are calling for Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott to intervene in the row over the timing of Blair's departure from Downing Street.

'All roads lead to Prescott,' said one source close to last week's revolt. 'The question is what he's going to do, when he thinks it's the right time to make the move. It needs someone who doesn't have a personal agenda.'"

Yep, you read that right. Apparently anti-Blair rebels are hoping John Prescott will be Brutus and put Anthony Caesar Blair out of his misery. The question is, as Steve Bell has noted, does Prescott have the balls to do it?
