LIVE: US President Obama's State of the Union speech
US President Barack Obama has declared an end to the financial crisis and pledged economic policies to benefit all Americans, in his annual State of the Union address to Congress.
In a speech devised to appeal to working families, Mr Obama outlined his strategy for "middle-class economics".

He also pledged that Congress should pass a law to give women the same wages as men for doing the same job. "It's 2015. It's time," he said.
