Coalition budget hits the tails

by Mr Tickle on June 23, 2010

Well, it’s the day after the afternoon before and the papers are filled with budget analysis. One humble blogger can’t hope to be more comprehensive, but I did think this graph from the BBC budget analysis was revealing and worth sharing:

Not good if you're very poor or rich

This graph suggests it’s the tails of the income bell curve who have been hit hardest.

An interesting political outcome, and perhaps a quirk of coalition government aiming to pacify the majority of voters, as well as a minority of its own politicians?
