Employer NI contribution cut also looks interesting, particularly as NI (technically) is what pays for the welfare bill. | |||

"I was getting worried that Milli was just going to stick to the jibes but he's finally putting some figures out in response on the top rate tax cut. The timing of the changes is the pertinent bit." Milliband was very good as you say came back with figures. No matter hiw its dressed up the millionaires get tax rebate in april and yet help for childcare costs not starting for 2 years. Quite disgraceful as how are folk already struggling meant to cope. We cannot in my _iew justify guaranteeing overseas aid to help worlds poor when the poor here are being hammered. If we as country were better off then yes increase help to others but we are told to cut our expenses. Finally when milliband pressured the coalition about if they personally will gain from tax rate rebate. | |||

"Penny off a pint from Sunday. " Interestingly we had an email at work 3 days ago, saying as we are expecting the price of alcohol to go up in the budget, we are increasing all bar prices by 5p. I wonder if it will still go up!! Actually, why am I wondering? Of course it bloody will!!! | |||

"Was just in town a random person said budget good as fuel coming down i told him its not as uts just not going up there is massive difference. I tried to explain an increase is not an increase until it actually goes up. Somehow sums up the gullibility of folk." I've had to explain that inflation means going up as well. A VAT cut would be have had more an effect but I suppose that will wait until next year. | |||

"Will all that creat some real jobs as that is what the country need" I think the house building stimulus will be interesting to watch. It's hard to guess whether the Employer NI cut is enough to stimulate taking on extra people, it looks marginal to me. | |||

True . but all the efforts is still not convincing as they give in one hand and take back with the other hand plus a leg We need a real stimulus. How many small companies will hire new staff if they are not sure of surviving for 2 years??? Hope all get better | |||

"I didn't spot the care costs cap at £72k but not until 2016. Nigel Farrage saying the tax threshold should be at £13k." well in the independant report into care costs that the government commissiones even they said that in todays money it should be 50-60,000... so accounting for inflation, that may not be that far off the higher value.... in the care debate in parliament, david milliband (ed bro) made the suggestion that the cap be set at 26k .. and to pay for this, the savings in benefits would offset the costs in care... which actually is not the worst suggestion and is very clever... | |||

"Will all that creat some real jobs as that is what the country need I think the house building stimulus will be interesting to watch. It's hard to guess whether the Employer NI cut is enough to stimulate taking on extra people, it looks marginal to me." It's no good giving employers lower NI contribs to generate jobs if the orders aren't there. This is giving breathing space to employers who would otherwise have to lay staff off. A smart move by George. As for the govt guarantee on newbuilds, I think the govt has just replaced the Bank of Dad in helping first time buyers find a home and I'm gobsmacked nobody has done it before. The govt are only guaranteeing 20%, not putting the money up front - that comes from the mortgage lenders and/or builders, and it will only become payable by the govt if a homeowner defaults on his mortgage. It's a brilliant move and one that could kick start the housing sector whilst costing the taxpayer sod all in real terms. 1p off a pint of beer? I can't remember the last time a pint cost anything other than a figure ending in a 5 or a 0, so I don't foresee my local dropping a pint from £2.30 to £2.29 anytime soon. He should have made if 5p so that we could see the prices coming down, but he's opted for a token gesture of 1p as if to say "well, at least I didn't put it up!" | |||

"Well the press had all the details long before the house did and had to say sorry for publishing facts to soon. Never mind eh, lots of those pigs waiting at the airport, ready for take off when the boom arrives." The press always have the full detail before the House hears the speech. It's just they pressed send too soon this time. | |||
