Today was budget day

It was a day that the chancellor admitted to 175 billion of debt and saw tax rises for the higher rate tax payers to 50%

Are you better or worse off?

Interesting news for me there Smiley: dubious

I'm £148.87 worse off!

The fact that I didn't try to translate my earning into pounds but I did translate my fuel use into litres probably affected the results.

I'm going to be £100 better off apparently, although I guess that depends on how much I do end up drinking per week...

The joys of not smoking or owning a car :)
