However, they highlight the areas the government wants to prioritise in the coming years.They also seek to communicate to voters how they would personally benefit from a Labour government.

While an aim to secure the highest sustained economic growth in the G7 remains, there is now also a promise to raise living standards.However, the government's plan does not put a specific numerical target on this, only stating that it will be measured through higher real household disposable income (RHDI) and GDP per capita in every region of the UK.RHDI is what people have left of their pay and benefits once they have paid tax, while GDP is a measure of the size of the economy.

The Resolution Foundation think tank, which campaigns against poverty, welcomed the focus on living standards but said the target was "not very stretching" and "the bare minimum of any functioning government".RHDI has risen in every Parliament since 1955 and GDP per capita has risen in all but two.

Policing Minister Dame Dianna Johnson has said the increase in funding would "allow police forces to kick start" the recruiting process.Asked on the Today programme about forces making cuts, Dame Diana said she wouldn't "pretend it's not challenging for police forces" but overall an "extra £1.1bn was going" into policing.

The money will come alongside a major police shake-up in spring. Forces will be asked to work together more and cut waste, like merging IT systems, Dame Diana said."We recognise that the current way policing is structured is not the most efficient or best way of providing a police service in England and Wales," Dame Diana said.
