Jeremy Corbyn has been invited to address students at Queen’s University Belfast later this month.

It will be his first major speaking engagement in Northern Ireland since taking over leadership of the Labour Party .

The UK opposition leader will share his thoughts on issues such as Brexit and their impact on the region, at the public lecture.

Previous political speakers at the university include An Taoiseach Leo Varadker, TD.

The address will be followed by a question and answer session, facilitated by Professor Richard English, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Internationalisation and Engagement.

The free event will take place at 11am on May 24 at The Great Hall, Queen’s University Belfast.

Places were limited and allocated on a first-come first-served basis.

Queen's told Belfast Live: "Unfortunately all tickets have now been allocated, despite accommodating more places by moving it to a bigger venue."
