Speaking on ITV Peston, Mr Campbell admitted he may have to go against his party loyalty in today’s elections. The former Labour man also insisted people going to vote today must think about the country “in the long-term”. Mr Campbell added: “It’s a big decision.
“I voted Labour all my life.
“But on this issue, we have to think about what’s right for the country in the long-term.”
