Theresa May: "Labour put up taxes on average households"
The Home Secretary, Theresa May, told the programme figures show a Labour government would raise taxes if elected.
Mrs May said weren't "helping the people they claim to help the most"
“The natural inclination of Labour in government is to put up taxes on hard-working people... if they were in government they'd do it again," she said.
The Home Secretary also commented on the issue of Islamic radicalisation in British prisons, which she insisted the government is working with the prison service to address.
"We need to continue looking at this issue of how we can insure that radicalisation does not take place in prisons," she said.
