I'm sure the budget will be an opportunity for Labour set out a credible plan to reduce the UK's deficit, in line with its own Fiscal Responsibility Bill, to reassure international investors and to put the public's expectations concering future levels of taxation and public spending on a realistic footing.

Or Labour could keep playing their games for party political advantage...

Where do I mention the Tory party in that post? I can't find it.

I presume you mean 'failed to want to see this was NOT exclusive to Labour'? I thought you were saying that the Tory party would avoid tackling the deficit in the budget report too???

Well whatever you mean, I didn't make any view on what the Conservatives would do. Maybe in your imagination, but not in this thread.

Go back to primary school and learn how to read properly, and you'll see I was making a point about the current (Labour) government, not what a hypothetical Conservative government would do.

No, you confused yourself. Read your own post - it doesn't make sense. :rotfl:

In love with David Cameron? Riiiight, whatever mate. How many hours did it take you to think that one up, or did you get it from listening to an 11 year old?

Not true, the worry is a hung parliament, overblown in my opinion.

I thought the fear of a hung parliament is that no decisive action would be made to tackle the deficit. But we are told that to tackle the defecit (at least in the short term) would be bad, so how come when the prospect of either a labour government or a hung parliment which would fail to tackle the problem straight away is seen as a bad thing by the market ?

The European Commission report is rubbish. Gordon Brown says everything will be OK and he has bever been wrong about anything. And he saved the world.

I nearly LOL, but then I realised that some people actually believe that and will vote labour at the next election.

Research from Ipsos MORI, published by the Commission on 2020 Public Services, shows the public is utterly unconvinced of the need for cuts.

Only a quarter believe there is a need to cut services to reduce national debt. While 50 per cent do not think cuts are necessary, 48 per cent think more, rather than less, should be spent. And 75 per cent believe efficiencies alone can deliver any savings needed without damaging services. “This suggests that the public are either not facing up to, or are not aware of, the hard choices facing the country,” the study says, with public borrowing due to hit around £170bn this year.
