    I suspect with the latest scandal and lawbreaking Reeves will not survive to deliver the budget 
    I doubt it, the biggest scandal IMO is that you have to pay £900 to get a licence to rent a property out in certain boroughs. That's crazy. A bit different to the situation surrounding the other one who went. The most tiresome thing is how the opposition and press bang on about it for a week. The biggest watch out in my manor is not carrying a poo bag, if you have a dog of course.
    £900 is neither here or there, 40K essentially similar. 

    But in my head it shows judgement and detail not being applied. 

    I also think Torsten Bell will be getting promoted in the not to distant future.

    My point was if we do get a new chancellor I think the Government could perhaps use this situation to set a more radical agenda for overhauling the whole tax system. Certainly Bell is a radical thinker but will he be brave enough to follow through on his previous beliefs.
