Osborne has decided that more austerity cuts are needed so the agony goes on as ordinary Brits take another hit.. but the good news is that overseas aid will not be reduced!
I have fought racism all my life and i am a mature student with an axe to grind! but i am getting fed up now reading year after year that will have to keep taking austerity hits as there is no money left in the pot,
then we discover that when it comes to overseas aid there is a never ending surplus of money available from this country for these pet political correct projects
Please stop overseas aid or we will not vote for any of you lot again!

Economy flatlining, plan A clearly not working, what does Osborne do?

He remembers last year's omnishambles and decides to do next to nothing.
