| I have done in the past but I'm not wedded to them. Tax rises look inevitable given the state of the nation's finances. I don't welcome them, just like everybody else, but I can't see enough growth magically appearing to allow us to avoid them, even if they have a dampening effect on the economy. There are simply too many bills to pay and while we probably all agree the welfare budget could be trimmed, how and to what extent is still very much up in the air. |
