If you were the Chancellor, what would be in your budget?

God the Tories piss me off. The stamp duty thing is hardly a progressive original idea... It's not stolen from them, it's an extension of what Labour have already done.

didn't sound like it from the howling

OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/03/2010 12:54

Ewe · 24/03/2010 12:54

ShadeofViolet · 24/03/2010 12:56

This is definately going to be his last speech - either the Tories win and he is out or Labour win and he is out, so he hasnt got much to lose!

The thought of Ed Balls as chancellor does not make me happy!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/03/2010 13:01

Vince Cable

OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/03/2010 13:02

who would you suggest?

ShadeofViolet · 24/03/2010 13:02

Saw Jacqui Smith on Sky News earlier and she looks like a Black Widow!

Or atleast I think it was her - I always get her and Harriet Harmon mixed up.

oooer cider duty increased - there will be riots here in Somerset

ShadeofViolet · 24/03/2010 13:03

Leave Cider alone

OP posts:
OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/03/2010 13:03

what about local cider producers (not crappy strong mass produced stuff)?

morningpaper · 24/03/2010 13:03

well there would be riots if they weren't all half-unconscious in Wetherspoons

OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/03/2010 13:04

ShadeofViolet · 24/03/2010 13:04

Sorry Kitten - that was to Ed Balls - he makes my skin crawl.

Can't believe they are increasing the tax on Magners!!!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/03/2010 13:05

Violet - I share your feelings.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/03/2010 13:05

Nymphadora · 24/03/2010 13:07

For a minute there I thought Mr Tumpble was an MP.

Theres a thought....

OhYouBadBadKitten · 24/03/2010 13:07

no changes in tax apart from 50%? have we got any coming that we already knew about?

mum2phoebs · 24/03/2010 13:08

Think some money should be allocated to our PM so he can get rid of the eye bags - how rought does he look!

Nymphadora · 24/03/2010 13:08

Tumble even
