VIDEO: Alan Johnson is asked about the Labour Party in NI
The senior Labour MP Alan Johnson declines to talk about the Labour Party in Northern Ireland.
In the video he is asked about the organisation in the Province, which has many members who are unhappy about the fact that they cannot stand for election under the official Labour banner.
Mr Johnson, a strong supporter of the Campaign for Labour Representation in NI, sidesteps the question and says that he is focussed on the EU referendum of June 23.
