Sorry. I've just become so used to the line about "we may be shafting you really quite hard, and with sand in the lube, but private sector employees have take their shafting, so you see it's the only choice we had" which is clearly designed to turn the shafted on each other rather than against the shaftee.

| A real old scattergun of a Budget. No clear policy thread running through it at all.
Giveaways for some (shale gas explorers, middle income families with children, buyers of new build houses, beer drinkers), kicks in the teeth for others (further cuts to public sector budgets, pay rises capped at well below inflation).
Basically, a whole load of tinkering around the edges of the economy while it continues to lurch further away from the Government's own targets on growth and borrowing. Quite how Osborne has the cheek to insist that everything is still on track I don't know.
Mind you, when you've got News International on your side you can convince the public of anything (apparently the Sun front page this morning massively understated the debt position - accidentally or otherwise).

Thanks for that, it's going to be fun watching this develop.
And all for the sake of a pathetically token crumb of 1p off a pint.
As with the pasty tax, it merely shows how out of touch he is.

icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |
