The furore over Philanthropic giving has not let up despite the intervention of the PM (has George Osborne taken a vacation?).
Indeed the Budget of four weeks ago is still making headlines, all the wrong ones....
Consider
** Pastygate
** Fuel shortages
** Granny tax
** Off shore tax loops not closed
** Charity giving (interesting to see that the letter in the Sunday Telegraph signed by 40 odd signatories were almost all Tories)
** Snooping
** Conservatory tax
In the round this is middle-termitis. The key things to concentrate on are growth, youth unemployment and our beleaguered education system especially our university sector which is not fit for purpose.
