So we have the main guts now,

No £200 council tax rebate this year for pensioners

beer wine ciggys up in line with inflation (1, 4 and 9p respectively)

New level of Road fund license for 'new' gas guzzlers(i.e. 4x4's) but with no exepmtion for farmers etc who need them.

Public borrowing of £175BILLION over the next 5 years.

VAT on contraceptives cut to 5%

Inheritence Tax raised to £325K by 2009

Extra £250 Child trust fund at age 7

Fuel duty frozen till sept

Stamp duty rasied to 125K

Thats probably teh guts of it that affects normal bods.

So, good bad or not much change.....
