When questioned by Political Editor Robert Peston on the topic of a second Brexit vote, Mr Corbyn gave his clearest indication yet that Remain would be an option, by saying another referendum would have to be „qualitatively different to the one held before“ and that there would „have to be an option there of what‘s on offer“ in terms of a Brexit deal, suggesting the choice would be between that and Remain.

Mr Corbyn continued that a second vote could be held while still respecting the outcome of the June 2016 referendum.
