Labour has always been against the euro and everything to do with it. Who do you think kept Britain out of the wretched thing? If the 1997 Election had gone the other way, admittedly never very likely, then Ken Clarke would have taken us in at the start. Thankfully, we had Gordon Brown instead.
Love Ed Balls or loathe him, but he is the Shadow Chancellor and a well-known figure to the general public. As has been the case at least since Maastricht, Labour Eurosceptics include substantial figures as well as fringe oddities, whereas the much less numerous other lot were Tony Marlow and Teresa Gorman then, and are the obvious successors of such ornaments now.

But Marlow and Gorman made better television that Roger Berry, Bryan Gould or Peter Shore. If you define television as purely an entertainment medium.
