Post-independence, you'd have to set up armed borders with Norfolk and Essex, Pete. Cambridgeshire, you'll probably be able to get away with leaving unguarded...

You should reclaim the Sutton Hoo treasures Pete. Wasn't Ragwald (or whatever his name was) a Suffolk boiyy?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I was thinking of running for president of our new country,

I could model myself on Donald Trump.

Don't be daft. Suffolk and Norfolk will end up nuking each other.

Haven't really looked Pete for once. The one thing everyone keeps banging on about is the removal of Stamp Duty for first time buyers. Looks like it's an own goal according to the OBR.

It's a failure of a budget from a failure of a chancellor.

We're in a position where a serious stimulus of the economy is required (just look at the dismal forecasts for the economy and the comments from the OBR and IFS, for instance) but instead we've got Box Office Phil tinkering around the edges, with a headline policy which will just give more money to home owners selling to inflate housing prices even further at the same time that the BoE raises interest rates! Utter idiocy all around.

I thought he might have made building houses a priority  but like Maringer said he just tinkered a bit,

It was helpful but I can not see 600 odd houses going up at Peakes Parkway any day soon.

Never mind a football stadium.
