Many people probably do not understand the EU referendum, Jeremy Corbyn has said.

Answering young voters' questions on Sky News, Mr Corbyn said the debate has been dominated by the political class, but added that he hoped interest in the debate would intensify in the remaining days leading up to the vote.

"People I hope will think seriously about it - it's a big decision," he said.

"If we leave I don't think there's an easy road back. If we remain I think Europe has got to change quite dramatically to something much more democratic, much more accountable and share our wealth and improve our living standards and working conditions."
