budget

Hi deanrxs

We have no idea what will happen until announcements are made in the budget. Steve will report in the newsletter when information is available.

Hi dean,

I have read speculation that she will tax savers on £4,000 plus savings. I've read that there will be an increase in UC for people searching for work, and a decrease for those in LCW and LCWRA. I've also read that the PIP criteria will change, making it harder for people to claim this, and forcing other disabled people back into work.
Perosnally, if it's true, I think it'll spell a disaster of consequences, involving possible riots, protests, suicides and maybe's even theft because people will be pushed into desperate measures. I think Labour are destroying the country. Not sure if any of this speculation will come true, it's only what I've read online in the Independent and the Big Issue.

Indeed - because a lot of us have a conscience and morals, so are likely to think of harmful thoughts to ourselves, before thinking of what impact a theft could have on another person's life. For example, a young mother with a family, who is terrified because someone goes into a store and attempts to rob it!
