In one reply, the Labour leader said: "I would view the idea of having to use a nuclear weapon as something that was resulting in a failure in the whole world's diplomatic system".

After being criticised for failing to take part in a live TV debate with other party leaders, Mrs May said: "I don't think seven politicians arguing amongst themselves is that interesting or that revealing".

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn used a speech on Sunday evening to turn his fire on Theresa May, accusing her of denying police and security services the resources they need while suppressing evidence of Saudi support for violent extremists. Corbyn accused the Conservative Party of being in "chaos" over their tax plans. The conservative party platform or manifesto, as we call it here, included some unpopular commitments on social care, the long-term care of the elderly and the conservatives were forced into a very quick reversal of their policy on social care.

Sir Michael said: "All of these things have to be paid for".

However, he said, that Corbyn was totally aware of the situation and doing a good job.

The BBC has confirmed that for audience recruitment it uses open-ended online forms, which sources told the Telegraph is the riskiest kind for avoiding biased and one-sided crowds.

Conservatives hit back with a broadside on Mr Corbyn's record of opposing counter-terror laws and the use of shoot-to-kill tactics by police facing armed attackers.

But following criticism of the package, dubbed the "dementia tax" by opponents, Mrs May performed a swift U-turn which saw her commit to a cap on the total costs people would face - but the level of that cap will be determined following a consultation after the election.

"It was exactly what I thought it would be but it's disconcerting that we could potentially in six days' time have a prime minister who wouldn't be prepared to protect British lives over someone else's life". It's our firm intention to reduce taxes on ordinary working families.

The Prime Minister promised further investment and a new Mental Health Act to end workplace discrimination.

Jeremy Corbyn has vowed to keep the United Kingdom safe after facing questions about whether he would use nuclear weapons. We're not in the business of punishing people for getting on, on the contrary we want people to keep more of their earnings.

But May, asked by reporters whether Fallon's comments meant the Conservatives were shifting their position on tax, said there had been no change. "I want to form a Labour government with a majority to carry out this wonderful programme which can give so much hope and opportunity to so many people". The UK Labour party leader has received an important boost from the Vermont senator and leading American progressive Bernie Sanders, who faced off against Hillary Clinton in the Democratic party primaries a year ago.
