Darling has cut the business rate tax, or deferred it if you read the small print,but still increased the fuel tax. I give up, not increasing tax on fuel l would have had much more impact on business and consumers that that non event with VAT. Why defer why not be bold and scrap it.
What's occurring in Wales then - do we get the same relief on Business Rates?

Ooooooo er Mrs - AM in a strop
Hat Tip to David Cynical Dragon
To save you looking -this is on Leighton Andrews Blog -wonder who wrote it , they style doesn't sound like Mr Andrews.
PS I am not a Nat Blog,or a Tory Blog or Lib Dem Blog or a Labour Blog
"Since becoming a Minister nearly 2 years ago, I have pretty much stopped reading Welsh blogs - even Glyn's, which I used to enjoy for the wit, independence and honesty. There simply isn't time.
And, let's face it, none of them matter. Most of the Welsh blogs talk to or about themselves. Particularly the ones written by Nats, which means - er - most of them.
The hundreds of daily referrals to my own weblog rarely come from other Welsh blogs. Occasionally there are some from Peter Black's or from Glyn's. But over the last 24 hours, for example, there have been more referrals from Norman Geras's blog than all Welsh blogs put together.
But most visitors to my site come because they have gone through a search engine, looking for my site or for something about the Rhondda. Occasionally because they share my frustrations about Windows Vista and have found this post, or because they looking up anything on the last episode of the Sopranos and have found this post, or they are fellow City fans.
I look at blogs and websites written by Labour colleagues when I have time, and sometimes at Vaughan's blog and those by other journalists I have time for, and at Adam Higgitt's site very occasionally.
So, here's a message to Welsh Labour bloggers. Most of the Welsh blogs around don't matter in the slightest. None has ever influenced a voter or made a difference to politics. So, don't bother with them. Concentrate on building a strong Welsh Labour presence on the web, which speaks to the future and to real people, that sets out a debate about where our party is going and what it is doing in government at UK and Welsh levels, and sets out our dividing lines with the other parties.
In particular, ignore the nasty, bitchy, irrelevant world of the self-opinionated nat bloggers.
I add nothing to this David Taylor outburst.
