It is finally here, Ali Darling is about to unleash his “saviour plan” for the UK, but we all know what will happen, fags will go up, booze will go up, car tax will go up, petrol has gone up and salaries will go down in “real terms” and most of us will be worse off.
The last few months have exposed the greed and thoughtlessness of this Government; the last year or so has exposed the financial incompetence of this Government, which will not be forgotten at the next election.
Budget day is a day to dread, it will be embarrassing to watch the Chancellor squirm while trying to justify the position he and Gord have put us in, he will squirm trying to explain why we are now so far in debt that our grandchildren will be paying it back.
Ali will throw a few bones to the housing market, and to mortgage holders that are struggling, a few bones to some companies that are watching their business disappearing down the bottomless pit that he dug for us.
But in the end we will pay, the country will stagger on and recovery will come despite the Government, but Ali and Gord will be OK, they have their pensions to look forward to, they can sell their second homes when they are no longer MPs, and until then they will continue to draw their high salaries and expenses while the rest of us have to cut back on essentials just to get by.
