David Cameron was overheard on a live microphone making some disparaging comments about Yorkshire.
The Prime Minister was rehearsing for a speech in Leeds, when he went a bit off-piste, unaware his microphone was on.
He was discussing devolution when he commented: “We just thought people in Yorkshire hated everyone else, we didn’t realise they hated each other so much.”
