Corbyn re-enters the EU debate - and not before time, critics say
To rehash a phrase once used by a famous comic group: What's the EU ever done for us?
That is the tone of Jeremy Corbyn's speech today as he re-enters the referendum debate - and not before time, his critics say.
So apart from his list of cleaner beaches, protecting bees, reducing deadly air pollution, more renewable energy, lower mobile phone charges, paid holiday, equal pay for part-timers, equal rights for temporary workers, maternity leave, lower air fares - what has the EU ever done for us?
Jeremy Corbyn says he is making the positive, patriotic case for the Remain campaign.
And he criticises the negative one being led by the Conservatives.
The problem this campaign has is that Labour voters are key to the referendum.
If they sit on their hands, the Remain side can't win.
And yet, a recent poll showed Labour voters don't actually know which side Labour is on in the EU referendum.
That is partly because the referendum campaign has been framed as a 'blue on blue' fight - as Boris/Gove slug it out with Cameron/Osborne.
But it's partly a reflection of the low-key campaign run by the Labour leader - who many think is, at best, a reluctant believer in the EU.
Today, he hopes to change that view.
But there are now only three weeks left until the polls open.
