Jeremy Corbyn, the leader of Britain's main opposition Labour party, suggested Wednesday he would remain neutral if there was a second referendum on Brexit.

Labour has promised that if it wins the next election, it will seek a new exit deal with the European Union and put that and the option to stay in the bloc to a referendum.

"Only a Labour government would end the Brexit crisis by taking the decision back to the people," Corbyn wrote in an article in The Guardian.

"We will give the people the final say on Brexit, with the choice of a credible leave offer and remain."
