Ms Cooper said: “This is total chaos.

"The Tories have pushed our economy and our NHS into crisis and working people are paying the price.

"None of them are fit to govern the country and this total chaos is not fair on people who are facing rising mortgages, higher waiting lists or worrying about paying the bills.

"Enough is enough. It’s time they all went and gave the British people their say in a General Election."
