PMQ’s/Budget cancelled: Brown found dead
How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

The problem is we do actually need a budget because the country needs to reign in its spending and outline how the debt is going to be reduced over the coming decade or two.
I just have a nasty feeling that, based on what they've done in past budgets, this lot neither have a clue what they are doing or what the actual nature of the problem is. So all today will do is make things worse.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment
