The Mirror

The Mirror, external is critical of George Osborne's plans to freeze benefits for working-age people, headlining that it will "push more people below the poverty line". The paper states that the chancellor's decision to reduce the welfare bill to contribute to a further £25bn of spending cuts in the next parliament "has provoked fury among those who feel working people on benefits are already struggling".

The Guardian

The Guardian's Nicholas Watt, external writes: "Osborne's speech was designed to frame the Tories' two key pre-election messages on the economy. These are that the party has taken tough decisions to stabilise the economy in the current parliament to begin the process of eliminating the structural budget deficit. The second message is that only the Conservatives - which he sought to characterise as the party of a low-tax future - can eliminate the deficit and build on the economic recovery."

The Daily Mail

The Daily Mai, externall reports that 10 million families would lose £500 under George Osborne's plan to freeze working-age benefits for two years, if the Conservatives win the general election. The move by the chancellor is expected to save £3bn. The paper also says of Mr Osborne: "He paid tribute to the British public for enduring the hard years of austerity to fix the economy, but warned in total another £25bn in cuts is needed to balance the books, including a fresh squeeze on public sector pay."

It's been a day of announcements - with pledges to freeze working-age benefits for two years and to introduce pre-paid benefit cards for welfare claimants. Proceedings recommence at 10.30 BST on Tuesday. Those addressing the party include London Mayor Boris Johnson, Home Secretary Theresa May, Justice Secretary Chris Grayling and the secretaries of state for health and education - Jeremy Hunt and Nicky Morgan.

Iain Duncan Smith's message to Conservatives is to go out "heads held high" and help to change Britain for the better.

And challenge your neighbours to come on board because "we are doing the right things for the right reasons" to secure the a better future for all. In an activist-rousing conclusion, he says: "'Join us,' you should say to them. 'Join us on that crusade because we care about our country,'" before adding: "Conference, it's time."
