00:00It's extraordinary, isn't it?
00:01A Prime Minister that wants unity, well, the idea that a referendum on the European
00:05Union will bring unity will bring the opposite, complete division, but also this is the Prime
00:10Minister who's been selling us from day one the idea that powers through devolution must
00:17be handed down nearer to people for big decision making.
00:22Any closer relationship, let alone rejoining the European Union, would hand powers back
00:28in the other way to an unaccountable organisation by which we couldn't change a single law they
00:34make.
00:34So I find the whole thing hypocritical.
00:37Politically, he might think, well, I'll get more green votes, I'll get more votes in the
00:41big cities, but here in Doncaster and across the north of England, I think what he's done
00:47is opened the door to reform in the most extraordinary way.
