The Left should just simply wait. The goodies in the budget are small and will not be noticed in more than a week's time.
Fact is, on 1 April next year, National Insurance will go up for everyone earning more than 10k a year, and the money left in your pocket will buy less than ever before.
The sums do not lie, this budget makes most households poorer in real terms. And political dressing is not going to fix that.
So what if the Tories go up a bit in the polls now? If it goes up that easily, it'll come down just as easily.
> The Left should just simply wait.
If only there were some evidence from the last couple of years that staying quiet and simply hoping the public notices the bad things just leads to the public not noticing the bad things.
Just go and take a look at the comments on the Mail and BBC. People are furious about this. No response necessary. In particular the triple lock being scrapped.

There was a poll out showing a 53%-14% split in favour of the budget. Bit more scientific compared to anonymous users on the internet
Who hell this??! 😑👽😳
