"We are a party winning back people's trust, regaining ground, but there is more work to do," Miliband said, as votes continued to be counted across Britain. "People are hurting. People are suffering from this recession, people are suffering from a government that raises taxes for them and cuts taxes for millionaires," he said. Cameron insisted his poll battering was to be expected at the midpoint before a 2015 national election, and with his government carrying out grueling economic repairs following the global economic crisis. "These are difficult times and there aren't easy answers," Cameron acknowledged. "What we have to do is take the difficult decisions to deal with the debt, deficit and broken economy that we've inherited." Figures showed most Britons had chosen not to vote at all, with turnout expected to be at 32 percent
-- the lowest level for an election since 2000.
