But Mr Corbyn said it was "down to Labour to restore hope - and give people the chance to take back real control", echoing the Leave campaign's slogan. Analysis
By Iain Watson, BBC political correspondent
Jeremy Corbyn's message was clear. If you have lost trust in politicians, well, don't go for fake anti-elitism. Go for the real thing. Him.
But in order to distance himself from conventional parliamentarians he renewed his attack on the pre-Corbyn Labour leadership which, he said, he had become too complacent about inequality.

In an internal election for that body's vice-chair, the left-wing candidate closest to his own views was roundly defeated.
And a potential showdown with critics over future leadership rules has been put on hold as his team believe an early general election is likely.
