2008 Pre-Budget Report Update

Quote from Nigel Holland:

 '' The 2008 Pre-Budget Report is an important selection of measures which will probably affect your financial situation. Alistair Darling has proposed GBP 20 billion of tax cuts to stimulate economic and business activity, to support small firms and to ease the pressures on household budgets. It will be left to the next few months to tell whether the governments fiscal push and additional borrowing will help to revive the economy.''
