or are you more concerned with how interest rates, council tax and Utility bills will be changing in the next 6 months?

No pin head I'm not Gordon.
This budget will probably cost me about £120 - £150 a year when it all pans out, my wife who earns less than me will be as badly affected, but we can cope this time. % years ago his changes cost me about £170/month net that really hurt.
The changes to interest rates are likely to have much more impact on my wallet if they get over 7%

At first glance this is a cynical bribe for the middle earners votes at the expense of the poor who gordon thinmks will vote for him anyway. Hopefully they will remember how much council tax has risen, their pension values have declined and other stealth taxes have been applied.

It will cost me money if New Labour wins again because I'll probably have to move out when the economy collapses. They're also at war with small businesses, which will cost a lot of us money if we don't start using trust funds.

Personally i worry about all the things you said, when was the last time you heard of these things coming down? never i suspect, and whatever you do dont listen to the political rhetoric the only people they look after is themselves, when they have filled thier pockets with your hard earned then its off to the bar with the oppositon for a knees up!!
