Campaigns Heat Up As Election Countdown Begins

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 27 Januari 2015 | 12.27

There are now just 100 days until the General Election, with Britain's two largest parties - Labour and the Conservatives - launching new policies in a bid to lure voters.

David Cameron has promised a renewed squeeze on benefits "within the first few days" of Government if the Tories are re-elected on May 7.

The Prime Minister plans to reduce the annual cap on welfare payments from £26,000 to £23,000 – with the £135m saved going towards funding for 3 million apprenticeships by the end of the decade.

Mr Cameron will be speaking on Sky News at 7.15am about his proposals to tighten the limit, which he believes will "give people the chance of a better future".

Meanwhile, Labour is outlining its 10-year plan for the National Health Service, which includes a pledge to improve the care that terminally ill, frail and elderly people receive at home.

The announcement of 5,000 new "homecare workers" is part of a wider policy to invest an extra £2.5bn in the NHS, with a view to recruiting 20,000 more nurses and 8,000 additional GPs.

Shadow health secretary Andy Burnham will be appearing live on Sky News at 8.10am.

The fresh round of campaigning comes as Sky News forecasts another hung parliament following May's General Election, with the Green Party, UKIP and the SNP all vying to lure voters away from the traditional two-party system.
