#uk budget

[superbeans89]

How bad does a budget have to be for literally everyone to hate it?

The budget may have been a bit shit (as usual), but it was worth watching just for this comment.

Oh boy. This is going to get ugly.

In the space of a year the Foreign and Commonwealth Office loses 40% of its budget!? That doesn’t sound like a UK that’s going to be able to project its voice around the world and secure trade deals after Brexit. Very bizarre move. If I believed in the UK as an institution, this is not what I’d want to be seeing.

I don't know why the budget has gotten people like Terry so riled up and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.

Sunak must rethink budget to deal with coronavirus threat, say experts

Former advisers and ministers say outbreak makes job for chancellor harder

“He will be delivering his budget just four weeks after being appointed, with a powerful No 10 apparently indifferent to keeping control of the public finances, in a government that is pursuing a growth-damaging Brexit policy and in the midst of a health crisis that makes all short-term economic forecasts a matter of guesswork. It is quite a baptism of fire.”
