    Can't cut what has been cut to the bone already, rememer the years of cost cutting they did before Covid calling it "Austerity".

    I have no idea where these cuts will come from after the rape of the public finances that has been carried out since the Tories got in.

    Get ready for any new roads to be cancelled. Again. And the pointless Railway. It has to come from somewhere and taking it from construction that funds just about everything else this country earns will the the fatal move. Here comes recession the like of which we have never seen before.

    15% interest rates all over again. I lost my house to that last time.

    I'm listening to Sir John Redwood whose views seem very familiar.

    I didn't make any insults or comments of any sort about your competency. Here's enough people here who are keen to insult you without inventing more . And no, I disagree with your point strongly. Now I AM starting to question your competency since your work presumably involves reading things....

    Anyway enough on that... are you still claiming the government is acting effectively? Presumably we were just "stress testing" the Chancellor; let him do a budget and if he fecks up the entire country, sack him for the next one. No problem, they saw a problem and they addressed it right?
