549. Speak for the UK, Mr Cameron

Mr Cameron has a simple choice. He can either go along with the plans for a German Europe, and be hailed by federalists as a good European, or he can call their bluff and speak for the UK.The Merkel plan will not save the Euro. It does nothing to tackle the underlying problems of too much government borrowing, and too little competitiveness. It increases the gap between the governed and the governing. Fining countries who have no money is ludicrous.

550. UK national debt hits staggering new record of over £1TRILLION | Mail Online

The Government's £1trillion debt mountain is the legacy of nearly a decade of the state living beyond its means under Gordon Brown's Labour government, and the pain caused by the financial crisis.The debt, which is measured as the state's liabilities minus its cash, only increased gradually in the early part of the century when the economy was booming. But the financial crisis sparked an explosion in Whitehall borrowing.

Chancellor George Osborne is planning a 3p-a-litre increase in fuel duty at the upcoming budget and Fairfuel UK is organising a mass lobby of Parliament to combat what it calls an 'absolute crisis'.Mr Osborne also stood by his decision to rule out any further duty cuts for motorists.He said: 'We’ve taken action in last two fiscal statements either to avoid a fuel duty increase that was coming or to cut fuel duty.'Fuel duty is 6p lower than it would have otherwise would have been. I have absolutely shown willingness to respond to international fuel increases and have taken action this year to tackle fuel duty rises, which were planned by the last Labour government.'Fairfuel UK will confront MPs on March 7 along with struggling motorists, taxi firms, catering companies and car companies including the RAC.Peter Carroll from Fairfuel UK said: 'This is an absolute crisis in the history of the nation. Enough is enough. The current fuel prices are killing the economy and stunting growth.'The Government has to cut fuel duty to create jobs and stimulate growth to start getting the deficit down.'The RAC and Fairfuel UK will meet treasury minister Chloe Smith on Tuesday and are releasing a report on fuel duty on the same day in connection with the Centre for Economics and Business Research.

552. Energy prices

Every time you go to the pump to fill your car, every time the Gas and Electricity company sends you a statement or quarterly bill, you get a nasty shock. Super greens may tell us to wear thicker woollies, or to get on a bike. For many busy families there is no option but to take the car to work, to use the boiler for hot water and central heating and the cooker for daily household chores. Paying the bills leaves many short of cash for other items. It is an important part of the squeeze on spending we see in the shops.

554. How many people would support the 50p top rate tax even if they believed it was shrinking our...

Here's the question I'd like to see someone put to Nick Clegg: 'If you were presented with incontrovertible proof that wealth taxes were, on balance, costing the Treasury money, would you still support them?'The Deputy PM would, of course, dispute the basis of the question. He'd insist that wealth taxes do bring in net revenue, and I'm sure he'd be sincere: it's human nature to believe the facts which best match our assumptions. I might point to several surveys showing that wealth taxes in general, and the 50p rate in particular, drive away more revenue than they raise. But he might retort that I am subject to a cognitive dissonace of my own.

555. The Bank downgrades growth forecasts

Amidst all the UK turmoil on the streets, world markets have continued to plunge on the back of fears about banks, government debts, and slowing growth.So far markets have believed the UK government’s oft stated intent to get the deficit down and to control its finances. The UK government can now borrow at some of the lowest sovereign interest rates in the world. No-one doubts the UK’s commitment to meet all the payments, or her ability to do so.

556. A very wet drought | John Redwood's Diary

The imposition of a ban on hosepipe use in the south of England coincided neatly with the arrival of rain bearing winds day after day. It is a very wet kind of drought.It goes alongside the very cold kind of global warming we are experiencing yet again this April.Spare me the official explanations. I understand that winter rainfall has been below average for two winters running. I understand that two cold winters and now a cold April may be just patches of weather. We can shivver together, with many still worrying about the long term trend of global warming.
