Is the real reason you are grumpy because everyone was poor and now thanks to the budget everyone is poorer?

No, 20%, is the increase in VAT!

The tories had to make cuts, we are sitting on a massive pile of debt (thankyou labour) that we have to deal with, everyone knew cuts would come no matter what government came in. hopefully when we make a dent in the debt the cuts will ease of a bit.

I would likely have been able to completely remove the deficit simply by reforming the rubbish government systems in place and the public sector, removing most of the waste in the process.
No need for raises in VAT which makes everyone poorer.
