Never has an autumn statement been more heavily trailed/leaked.
He's going to have to come up with a replacement for the tax credit proposal that was defeated by the Lords, so "hard working families" on lower incomes should be holding their collective breaths.
The cuts he aspires to will undermine many aspects of British life that we currently take for granted. The UK will never be the same again.
My personal (trailed) favourite is the notion that "affordable starter homes" at £450k (in London) and £250k (outside) should be subsidised by the taxpayer.
(Remember the old rule "you can borrow 3 x your annual income"? )
What else will the statement bring...?
To think that London, or anywhere else for that matter, does not belong to any one demographic
