Watch the full interview with Jeremy Corbyn
The Labour are defending only seven seats out of 69 constituencies in the Anglia region but in three of those areas they beat the Conservatives by less than 1,000 votes and the Tories could win them back on a tiny swing.
Peterborough - 2017 Labour majority 607
Bedford - 2017 Labour majority 789
Ipswich - 2017 Labour majority 836
If the Labour Party is to gain power it needs to win many of the Conservative seats in the Anglia region which would changes hands on a swing of 5% or less.
These include Norwich North which the Conservatives won by 507 votes, Northampton North where the margin between the two parties was 807 votes and Milton Keynes South where the Tory majority was 1,725.
The interview with Jeremy Corbyn was part of a series of interviews ITV News Anglia's Political Correspondent Emma Hutchinson conducted with all three main party leaders during the election campaign.
