Ed Miliband has confirmed there will be no Labour coalition with the Scottish Nationalists after Thursday's election.

Insisting again that he would not "negotiate" with the SNP, Mr Miliband said Prime Minister David Cameron was a "pretty desperate man" who wanted to reduce the contest to a "clash of two nations" rather than a battle of ideas.

"He's lost all the arguments: He's lost the argument about the economy, he's lost the argument about leadership, he's lost the argument about his broken promises on the NHS, and so this is all he's got left," said Mr Miliband.

He added added that the election was a "clash of two visions" about health, wages, and the future of young people.

"It isn't a clash of two nations. It's about how you stand up for working people in England, in Scotland, in Wales, in Northern Ireland - in every part of our country."
