Budget today today

[PAH]

"Public sector .net investment to be £33bn next year, and £37bn in 2010."


"There will be no return to the inflation rates of the early 1990s" Reminds me of "there will be no return to boom and bust".

Energy companies should spend £150m on social tariffs.

I get the feeling he's reading out one of brownstuff's old speeches:

"We will make the NHS a world leader in 10 years"

"We will eradicate child poverty"

How many times do these numpties have to say this stuff for it to be cliched?

Mr Darling said there will be simpler taxes for small companies.

Yes, just one tax now. IR35 and it applies to all small businesses.

There will be a capital fund of £12.5m to encourage more women entrepreneurs.

Sexist!
