A Labour government would guarantee an apprenticeship place to any school-leaver who gets the required grades, Ed Miliband announced as he set out his plan for boosting the UK's prosperity.
The Labour leader warned that the Tory "long-term economic plan" is working for a "handful" of people at the top, while his rival vision would champion the needs of working families.
Ed Miliband will tomorrow unveil plans to boost "every business and sector of the British economy", while attacking the current government's "failing plan" for growth.
In a speech at Jaguar Land Rover in Birmngham, the Labour leader will present an alternative to a Conservative vision that, in his words, "only works for a handful of people at the top".
Labour's Better Plan for Britain's Prosperity will outline measures to build "a more inclusive prosperity", including plans to cut business rates, improve training and apprenticeships and promote greater competition in the energy and banking sectors.
The document will also include plans to offer tax breaks for employers who introduce the Living Wage, and guaranteeing that Britain has the most competitive rate of corporation tax in the G7.
