“By the end of the Parliament that is the position we will be in” Gove tells Marr re shifting National Insurance threshold to 12,500 - that’s a £10bn a year promise at end of Parliament, that explicitly was not in announcement which gave no timeframe... £500 for 20/30m people
And Labour are offering £11bn a year in total £58bn to 3.7m WASPI women - again not costed in the manifesto grey book.

Both main manifestos already not as “fully costed” as the political promises being made around them...
Not at all convinced by idea Labour Waspi move some random panic, albeit huge sum not to make it into Grey book. Looks completely planned, for today, complete with personalised website where women enter birthday/ email and are promised huge sums in compensation...

3.7m affected
I’ve never seen an election promise made in this way before - huge sums (from hundreds to £30k) targeted at compensation for 3.7m women who are among a demographic that tends to exercise the vote. Labour also collecting emails and via postcode constituency information...
Hmmmm.
