Has anybody been watching this?
My mams buzzing with it, apparently it's worked in our favour so she says.
So yeah, good stuff Mr Osborne.

Just been watching the emergency budget, very interesting actually. I was a little worried about it but it was nowhere as near as deep as I feared.
Opinions?
About the budget:

can't complain to be honest he's done it as fair as he could, interesting that they're bringing most of it in in 2011 though when the tories spoke so much about doing it immediately, we've seen it's possible to change VAT immediately as when Labour reduced it to 15% in 2008.
Brilliantly presented by Mr Osborne and overall a good mandate. Just a shame he didn't cut EMA, eh?
Very happy with this, and I feel that they have made the right decisions!
I know yeah! Could save loads on that, and seeing as it's discriminatory anyway...Quote:

Yeah but when they did that, most companies made more profit. Now the prices will likely go up ;) so they need time to plan.Quote:

It is good (from what I've read), but it could be SO much better. Is there anywhere to literally see this in like the form of a table saying how much is given to what directly rather then the excess information in the article.
