Its Budget Day - Who Do You Think They Will Hit This Year?..
 

Smokers and drinkers are going to get hit I expect...

Will he raise the 40% tax threshold? - I think that would piss off more people than it pleased - So yes, they will raise it - It's only the poor that will be pissed off.....

What else?...

I'd laugh if he died of a heart attack in the middle of delivering his shitty budget.. :)

seeing as the poor make up the majority of the population thats a lot of pissed off people!

imo petrol/diesel will also get hit.

They need to hit extras and not required things.

smoke and buzz 100% up the price, that would save people :)

they don't do that shit to save people, they do that shit to squeeze maximum revenue, under the guise of 'helping people'. If the whole country gave up smoking today, the UK would be even more of a shambles than it is now thanks to all the lost revenue in both direct taxes on the cigs themselves, taxes on the tobacco industry & workforce, and the knock-on spending/wealth redistribution that workers at every level of the tobacco industry partake in.

Tobacco is a gigantic industry that the government are very much a part of.
