 Budget - smokie
Seemed to me quite a few capital investment plans which will create jobs for the workers, and hopefully wealth for the country. Also there seemed to be some improvements in the benefits system for disabled who want to work, for people on low incomes to encourage them to work and for parents of all school children with the wrap around child care pre and post school hours.

And for over 50 people who would like to return to work (presumably not the rich ones, though many of them still seem to be heading up fairly large companies like newspapers and stuff well into their nineties).

Given that the doctors were the ones who moaned loudest about the lifetime allowance I suppose you could say that parts were aimed at the rich, but I thought they had support here?

Actually other than that I can't recall anything much on a personal level aimed at the rich.

I'm not so sure one could have expected much different in a budget. When Truss decided to give it all away no-one approved. I was hoping Starmer might have mentioned what Labour might have done better but instead he just knocked the Tories.
