SUPPORT for a break with the European Union would soar if the Tories used membership negotiations to attack workers’ rights, a new TUC survey suggested yesterday.
The poll of over 4,000 voters showed that 55 per cent of respondents were more likely to support staying in the EU if it “did more to help working people get decent pay and conditions at work.”
