Boris Johnson is insisting he is "taking nothing for granted" as he takes a whirlwind tour of the country to try and secure votes.

The Prime Minister was in Grimsby this morning, and is heading up to Teeside as the UK enters the final week of General Election campaigning ahead of the vote this Thursday.

Labour Shadow Chancellor has announced that his party would hold their budget on February 5, saying "The date when almost ten years of cuts will come to an end."

It comes after Jo Swinson was branded a "Tory is disguise" at last night's Channel 4 election debate.
