Live updates: EU referendum

Divisions within the Tory party threaten to deepen further today with David Cameron accusing members of his own Cabinet of conning the British public during the EU referendum campaign.

The prime minister told ITV News that Boris Johnson's Brexit argument was "reckless, misleading and wrong".

But the former mayor of London said the Remain camp were "sacrificing democracy for economic gain".

With just 17 days to go until Britain heads to the polls, follow ITV News for the latest updates from the campaign trail.

Young people fuel late surge in EU vote applications

More than 1.35 million people have registered to vote in the last few weeks Credit: PA

Young people have rushed to sign up to vote ahead of the upcoming EU referendum, data from the Electoral Commission shows.

More than 1.35 million people have registered online in the past few weeks, more than half of whom are aged under 35.

The surge comes after an information campaign urging people to take up their right to a ballot ahead of the national EU vote on June 23.

It has warned that people have just one day left to register and ensure their voice is heard.

If you aren't already registered to vote, you need to do it by the 7 June deadline or you won't be able to take part in this historic referendum.

– Jenny Watson, chief counting officer for the EU referendum
