Let's start with the basics.
Ruth, how much money does the NHS get?
Ruth, I mentioned this £30 billion figure.
Just dig deep into that for me.
How much does the NHS really need in future?
One out of every £100 is 1%.
Am I right, Tim?
I don't know the calculator.
And yet the other parties are saying the Conservatives are planning huge cuts.
Can you help us understand?
OK, I'm just going to get my head around this delicious, gigantic £746 billion pizza.
Is the thing you want us to focus on £12,000 a piece?
OK, and you're saying the pizza is a bit smaller than it used to be?
All right, but how does this help us with David Cameron saying that the cuts will be just £1 in every £100 and just for a couple of years?
Is the education budget olives?
So under the Conservatives, some of the pizza is untouched, but the slice with, I don't know, artichokes is much smaller?
And as he was saying, the railways have been one of the talking points in the campaign today.
The Conservatives promising a price freeze, which, would they say, save the average rail commuter £400 by the time of the next election.

Ruth Alexander, what is an average rail commuter?
