Deputy Labour leader Harriet Harman has accused David Cameron of writing off parts of the UK.
She compared the Prime Minister to US presidential candidate Mitt Romney, taped last week saying he did not need to worry about 47% of the electorate.
She said that when asked by the Labour MP Denis Macshane about Rotherham, the Tory leader has said that "hell would freeze over" before anyone in the northern town said anything positive about the Conservatives.
