Commons ChamberAs I have already said, we are indeed stronger, safer and better off in the European Union. I am delighted that the leader of my party, the Prime Minister, is leading the campaign for us to remain in the European Union.

He goes on CND rallies instead of supporting Trident, for example, and instead of getting out there and supporting Stronger In.
