I know our armed forces could do with some extra cash and whilst I don't know about
schools nationwide, my local primary is in a sorry state and could use some cash for a
new roof. If not a new building!
I Would also like to see house prices subsidised for locals in my village. No one can
afford to live here anymore because the prices are so high that the houses are all
being sold off as holiday homes to outsiders that are only here fore a few months
each year. I don't think we should be forced out of our own village like that. I
suppose that isn't really budget territory tho.
If more spending means more tax, then I would prefer fuel, fags and perhaps VAT to
rise as opposed to business tax
However, all that is just from my perspective and not necessarily what is best for the
country. I don't pretend to be an economist.
Even if I had the draft budget to read I am not well informed enough to decide if it is
a good one in these economically troubled times of late. Budgets are always compromises
between different factors, so it certainly will be impossible to meet all interests.
