Budget Latest

Today was the first budget under the new government. I couldn't help but be reminded of a song by The Beatles. The Conservatives are back - not that Scotland voted for them. Roll on independence for our nation...

Mike I am hoping that Julia will be a totally different leader than Margaret was. She has my vote of confidence at the moment.
