I wrote this "... this autumn statement !!!!!! budget" in this post https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/80415628/#Comment_80415628 and the word "!!!!!!" was replaced by "!!!!!!" immediately after I'd posted.

I know, and especially today. I hope there's good news for you@mortgageFTB said:This is definitely one of these occasions where it’s best filling your thoughts and mind with other things, vs worrying about a forum’s profanity filter.
Better things to be concerned about, whether you think you’re right or wrong.
