I notice there has been a few bits of 'bad news', politically-wise since the election. Neither the Tories or Labour have made much of it, the latest being an increase in some deficit somewhere (see, even I can't be bothered to read up on something I'm 'commentating' on). I guess the Labour view is why bother with these smaller tit-bits which won't have any effect on the election result.
So this leads me to think that the chancellor's economic plan s revolve around the election cycle, but buy how much? If, for instance he planned for every thing to 'peak' just as the election was gathering pace, then how well would he do if he didn't have to take that into account? I'm sure that every economic decision has a political evaluation before being enacted, or maybe I'm just being too cynical.
