    I know the link is from a hick provincial newspaper but it's being widely reported on national radio programs too. What it boils down to is this: after suffering 4 years of austerity this pathetic excuse for a 'government' is going to hit businesses (especially businesses - May said 'some will be better off, and many will see no increase in their business Tax.' and if anyone believes that blatant lie, they'll believe anything???) and the rest of us by an increase in our domestic taxes, with the promise of - wait for it . . . even more cutbacks and austerity until 2020. But make no mistake about it - this isn't about 'austerity', it's about accumulating funds into the Treasury coffers to pay the 'exit fee' before they'll allow us to cut loose from the EU fiasco.

    t won't be £50 billion of course - it'll be 'reduced' to more like £35 billion to make us think we're getting off lightly.
