Surprised no one has commented so far. I am still catching up on the detail but it looks like a pretty decent budget. Is that because Osborne played a blinder or we are all still waiting for Cabaye?

Very good budget for some, not if you are under 25 or unable to work. I don't understand by wealthily pensioners get a free TV licence, can't it be means tested? If we are desperate to balance the budget, why are we reducing income from inheritance tax and corporation tax? Why not wait until the budget has been balanced before doing this? And, why announce that next week there will be a vote effectively ending the fox hunting ban on the same day as the budget? It's as if they have something to hide.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

The Budget keeps us moving from a low wage, high tax, high welfare economy to a higher wage, lower tax and lower welfare society. It delivers security for working people and delivers on the promises on which the 'Conservatives' were elected. Well done 'Mr Osborne' ! Edited by Willo (09 Jul 2015 10.19am)

Exceedingly articulate riposte.

Ironically we don't do this with benefit fraud.

We have already taken the 'Corporation tax' rate to the lowest in the G20 and aligned it for large and small businesses, but the feeling is that we simply cannot afford to stand still hence the further cut.

Edited by Willo (09 Jul 2015 10.19am) Delivers on the promises of austerity but reducing corporation tax (big gain for me personally) and inheritance tax (another big gain for me), but lets be honest the 'all in it togeather' is taking a back seat, because were I live 9 an hour now would be a living wage, not in 2020.
