    Ed Miliband's team came up with the idea of ending the non-dom tax rules in 2013. It was suggested at the same time as the policy on freezing energy prices. Labour decided to hold the non-dom policy back for the general election."

  9. Labour would ditch `non-dom' tax breakpublished at 23:05

    Ed Miliband has promised that a Labour government would abolish tax laws that allow wealthy individuals to avoid paying UK tax on money earned overseas. The Labour leader believes anyone who lives permanently in the UK should pay tax on all their income, regardless of where it is accrued. Labour says it very easy for people who have lived abroad to claim `non-domiciled' status - and the tax advantages that go with it. Ed Miliband will outline his plans in a speech in Warwick on Wednesday. He is expected to say: "There are people who live here in Britain like you and me, work here in Britain like you and me, are permanently settled here in Britain like you and me, but aren’t required to pay taxes like you and me because they take advantage of what has become an increasingly arcane 200-year-old loophole."

    #ToWinMyTrust

    Newsbeat

    So what happened when an audience of more than 100 young adults took on five politicians fighting for you to vote for their party at the general election on 7 May?

    The main theme of the night was trust, with thousands of people tweeting the hashtag #ToWinMyTrust during Tuesday. During the debate itself the key issues were tuition fees, diversity among politicians and leaders "speaking to us like human beings, not an age group."

    Newsbeat's Chris Smith and Tina Daheley were joined by Sam Gyimah for the Conservatives, Sadiq Khan of Labour, Sal Brinton of the Liberal Democrats, Mhairi Black of the SNP and Rhun ap Iorwerth for Plaid Cymru.

    Don't vote if you don't feel represented! If you do go for it. None of the above option on the ballot paper. Voiceless majority. #newsbeat

    If anything has been shown tonight it's that young people don’t have one unified opinion on anything. You should be speaking to us like human beings, not an age group."
