UK Budget under Threat ?


Independent on Sunday: Reports that disgruntled Liberal Democrat MP’s will attempt to block the Budget due to the raise in VAT from 17.5% to 20%. This is the time for Nick Clegg to show his ruthless side if he has one, he has to show he can control his Party; every party has its awkward squad, in the Conservative Party it is the extreme anti Europeans, in the New Labour its Old Labour, thus we see in the Liberal Democrats a few MP’s who prefer opposition to real power. As long as Nick Clegg takes the majority of the Party with him that is good, but he cant allow the awkward squad the chance to destroy this new Coalition.
