About this episode
Today, we look at the final days of campaigning and what the parties’ plans are for the NHS and cost of living.
Adam is joined by Chris Mason from the campaign trail as he’s been speaking to Sir Keir Starmer and Rishi Sunak, and they chat about how to cover the final days of a General Election campaign.
And we take a look at some of the key policy areas that matter to voters with the BBC’s Health Editor Hugh Pym and Cost of Living correspondent Colletta Smith. You can search all the party positions on a number of topics on the BBC website here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cxeez8271nvo
