Re: Budget 2015
The Government vs Opposition spin Doctors are always entertaining to watch in action post budget. The Budget looks vaguely inoffensive to me, and if the growth forecast figures are correct, and they stick to the minimum wage and base taxation cut promises it will keep Labour out for another Parliament with any luck! As for the 1% for Public Sector workers, these are funded by the taxpayer and as the Private Sector suffered during the last Parliament surely this is fair. It could be argued Public Sector workers were over-indulged during Labour's Parliaments and some restraint in the PS is just.Re: Budget 2015
They are hoping higher earners in social housing will buy their homes I expect rather than pay higher rents. I think it more likely that the older tenants will buy rather than downsize. That'll take even more family sized homes out of social housing. How on Earth do they think youngsters are going to pay rent if they're unemployed and how will they get a job without a permanent address? How are we going to fund an aging population's care if we end up with less young people paying tax, as they seem to think having more than two children is bad. Oh I know! We could get more immigrants over here to work! That'll do itRe: Budget 2015

Sorry Julie, I was responding to Steven's post which implied that only private sector workers had suffered during the last government which clearly was not the case.Re: Budget 2015
