Eddie Izzard: 'EU brings us the ability to travel in Europe'

Eddie Izzard, who is embarking on a 31-city tour to persuade young people to vote is hugely pro-Europe, although he has said he wouldn't quite say he "loved the EU".

Speaking to Andrew Marr, he said the most important thing is that the young cast their vote.

He said the EU has given him huge opportunities to travel and experience new things - and those things could be at risk in the event of Brexit.

"I'm a British European. I'm proud of being British. I'm proud of being European," he says.
