"We are going to stay to fight together for a better Europe," Benn told BBC radio. "We will be campaigning to remain in the European Union."

Jeremy Corbyn, who won the leadership of the Labour Party on Saturday, voted 'No' to Britain's membership of the forerunner to the European Union in a 1975 referendum.
