Andy Burnham praises the Express & Star's EU Referendum survey
Andy Burnham today commended the Express & Star's EU referendum survey as thousands gave their views in the first 24 hours.
More than 2,000 people have already voted in our poll to have their say on Brexit and and there is still time to take part in the survey.
Labour's shadow home secretary said: "This is a fantastic idea from the Express & Star and I commend it.
"This is huge decision for the country and it is important people have facts."
Yesterday the Express & Star launched a major survey to gauge the region's opinions of Britain's relationship with the EU, as was prepare to head to the polls for a historic EU referendum.
We want to know about the issues you care about, and whether you think we should remain part of the political union with our nearest neighbours.
David Cameron, Boris Johnson, and Nigel Farage have spoken and local MPs have spelled out how they intend to vote. But it will be your vote that will count.
On June 23, all registered voters will get a chance to decide if Britain remains a member of the EU or leaves the union.
It will be the first time the people of the this country has had a say in more than a generation with the last one taking place more than 40 years ago in 1975 referendum.
