ASP1, remind us, how was Hunt going to pay for the Blood contaminated & Post office scandal.?

OBR, NOT given all the info......surprise , surprise.

ASP1, So, like I stated, deramping which is fine just like ramping, all ok in my book.

years of austerity, 5 tory PM’s, mini budget that wiped out billions in a day, contracts for friends, no wage increases, week economic growth since the pandemic etc, etc…and now an OBR report that seemed to keep Hunt awake at night..

Good luck.

D...

ASP1, so like I stated not as concerned as some and yet you profess to be...just deramping eh, nothing wrong with wanting an entry price, top price of ones choosing. But with all your posts regarding reeves & co, taxes etc, one could be forgiven in thinking that you had retreated to a log cabin in the forest awaiting Armageddon.

Like I stated we, joe public, have no choice but to do our best to navigate our way through any government decisions past and present.

DYOR

ASP1, i suppose you are just "flip-flopping" eh....

DYOR

ASP1, "Made a nice little 'rounding up' top up this AM on the wifes ISA - 14,000@0.54 - tidy!"

Obvously not as concerned as some, with regards to what Labour will do to ISA's etc, etc...

Labours much anticipated budget is finally here.

After the Trusonomics "MINI" budget that crashed the markets this latest budgdt will no doubt offer up some more trading opportunities....

OBR Report will be interesting, i bet Hunt hsd nightmares about it...
