Coverage has just started of Gordon Browns final budget. Here you can post your thoughts on it also what you would like to see.

I prefer it if there was not a lot put on beer because that causes me a shed load of grief at work. lol.
 
When the fuel duty is annouce which it just as by 2p when will fuel price go up?
 
I think raising fuel duty again is madness, especially when it's at the price it is now!
 
Beer will rise by 1p a pint from midnight Sunday, cider by 1p a litre, wine by 5p a bottle and sparkling wine by 7p. Duty on spirits will be frozen.

He has also reduced the vat on patches from 17.5% to 5%. Should have got rid of it altogether, might have encouraged a few more.

He has increased the threshold for top rate tax to £43K as well which should keep a few extra people out of teh 40% band.

petrol stations put their petrol up already a few weeks ago , some a lot more than others ( tesco cough) and will raise them again at midnight today so that they can get double the increase and then reduce it in a few weeks to make it look like they are doing us a great favour

its the same with some shops and the ciggrettes they usualy put up teh price of fags then add a few extra pence after the budget as well :rolleyes:
