The Budget that Never Was.

The Budget to save the world (at least the UK part) has achieved nothing - a wasted opportunity, as has been said. The enormous hole in the economy of the UK has been filled with a puny shovelful of sand. Britain is perched on treacherous and shifting sands, a situation brought about by a decade of waste and mismanagement. Nothing the Chancellor has done or can do will stave off a deepening recession or replenish the coffers for all has been frittered away and put to no good use.
