@itvtynetees Another 3p a litre on fuel will cripple, the haulage industry and will push the overall price of goods up. It needs to stop.

From @Aardbloke on Twitter:“It's disappointing that there was nothing to stimulate capital equipment investment or R&D activity" (manufacturer) #bbcbudget #ttbbudget
From @OPRtweets on Twitter:"The only silver lining is the renewed pressure on banks to lend more to small businesses, if it works" (growth biz) #bbcbudget #ttbbudget
From @OPRtweets on Twitter:Government have pledged to encourage alternate, more eco-friendly fuel for vehicles. There is a lot of panic about rising Petrol prices, but what about the lpg(Autogas) that my car uses?
Price per liter has risen in just 6 months from 70.9p to the current 79.9p-will the Chancellor reduce the Tax on Autogas to encourage more use? I DON'T think so... :-(
#ttbbudget -Freezing allowances on Pensioners is a kick in the teeth to ppl who have worked hard all their lives and already paid their way.
