<p>Families with children are set to be hardest hit by coalition spending cuts, Ed Miliband is to warn.</p>
<p>The Labour leader is to step up his attack on the deficit reduction plans as he seeks to capitalise on momentum from the Barnsley by-election.</p>
<p>Research commissioned by the party from Landman Economics suggests that on average, couples with children stand to lose around £2,500 worth of public services annually.</p>
<p>That is more than £1,000 more than those without children, according to the calculations.</p>
<p>Families where the main breadwinner is aged 25-29 will lose the equivalent of 12% of their income if they have children &#8211; and just 4% if not.</p>
<p>Mr Miliband will tell a conference of Labour councillors in London: &#8220;We have always assumed that our children, the next generation, would do better than us.</p>
<p>&#8220;Not just the well-off, but the vast majority of people used to expect that their children will do better than them. But there is now a real fear that the British promise will be broken and the next generation will find it harder to get on than the last.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mr Miliband is also expected to insist that this week&#8217;s by-election victory showed Labour is &#8220;on the move&#8221;, while the Liberal Democrats were &#8220;humiliated&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think it&#8217;s becoming clear to voters that, while there might &#8211; still &#8211; be three main political parties, there are only two directions for the future of our country,&#8221; he will say.</p>
<p>&#8220;There are some decent Liberal Democrats out there who hate what their leadership is doing. But at a local and national level, voters understand they are powerless to stop Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrat leadership from signing up for some truly terrible decisions.&#8221;</p>
