Worse "cuts" than Thatcher!

Just to give you an idea of how bad this budget is, and indeed how dire the public finances are, even the Guardian recognise that public spending restraint under this government will make Margaret Thatcher's look positively loose in fiscal policy.

There will be much blood on the carpet.

The Guardian has this, whilst Polly Toynbee has this. The amusing thing about Polly's deranged world view, is that she would rather tax the poor more so she can punish the rich, but that is another story!
