All hunky-dory then?

The BBC seem eager to paint a rosy picture of today's budget with this puff-piece. What a government briefed, loved up pile of bollocks. According to this, everything is fine as they are hiring some more people to work in the job centre to service all the dole-hounds that this govt is creating every second of every day. Also if you're fired they will help with your mortgage for a couple of months and all will be sunshine and flowers since they're only taxing the 1% of people who have bothered to make some money in this country.

Where's the critical analysis of tax and spend policy? Where is the inciteful criticism of billions of borrowing? Nowhere on the pissing BBC.
