Now that the Budget dust has settled and the ‘experts’ have dissected Brown’s budget proposals, Brown should have free entry to the Magic Circle as the top magician.

The Budget has been a brilliant piece of sleight of hand but fortunately the ‘experts’ have seen through it.

No doubt there are a few winners but there are far more losers.

According to http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/bsp/h...calculator.stm I will be about £2 per week worse off.

Just one question – does anyone want such a devious person as a future PM?

It has been bad enough with Blair spinning away for all he’s worth but now we have the prospect of more to come with Brown.

Fortunately his time is limited, always assuming that he does become PM, but the alternative after that does nothing for me.
