The Labour Government produce a non event budget, they have totally ran out of steam and ideas to be proactive on the economy













Dear All

Yesterday was a budget by London Labour for election.

It was a non event designed not to attract too much attention.

A day passes and the bombshell drops, Darling failed to mention a measure that will mean higher tax bills for an estimated 30 million workers.

Yesterday was about politics and positioning trying to portray himself and Labour as Robin Hoods, taking from the rich.

The truth, Darling and Brown are robbing everyone because they have a house, a car, a phone or a job.

When Darling froze personal allowances, inflation was negative, now it is 3.7 %, everyone has effectively been hit by a Labour stealth tax.

The Labour Party has really run out of steam and ideas, if the best they can do is steal Tory policies.

As Cameron said, Darling came into office stealing the Tory inheritance tax proposal, he leaves stealing the Tory stamp duty proposal.

After the General Election, I would expect that there will be another budget after the phoney one by Labour.

Yesterday was a non event and designed to be so.

Yours sincerely
