The mother of a soldier killed in Iraq stormed out of a meeting with John Prescott saying he talked "rubbish".
Rose Gentle and 14-year-old daughter Maxine had been in Downing Street to hand over a letter to Tony Blair stating concerns about the Iraq war.
Mr Prescott offered them the surprise meeting about the death of son Gordon, 19, killed in Basra on 28 June.
He apologised that a handwritten letter of condolence from Mr Blair arrived nearly seven weeks after the tragedy.
