Live from Huddersfield ahead of the EU referendum

Jeremy broadcasts live from Huddersfield ahead of the EU referendum on 23 June, asking whether the town would be better off inside or outside the EU.

The Jeremy Vine Show broadcasts live from a village, a town and a city to take the temperature on the EU ahead of our historic referendum on June 23. Today we're in Huddersfield, a proud market town in the West Riding of Yorkshire. It's a place famous for conflict in the Industrial Revolution, when Luddite weavers smashed up factory machines that were putting them out of business. It's also the birthplace of rugby league and the former prime minister Harold Wilson. Is Huddersfield better off inside or outside the EU? Would Brexit bring the sort of turbulence that local firms experienced in the 1800s, or would it be a welcome boost? And what are the lessons from Harold Wilson's 1975 referendum on Europe?
