So what’s in store?

The main predictions…

- a handful of small tax cuts

- help for first-time buyers

- a couple of tough-on-the-rich crowd pleasers, and

- a scrapping of plans to raise fuel duty by one penny a litre to keep belligerent motorists on side

The Budget is expected to be backed up by a “strategy for growth”.

Exciting.
