Well the Autumn Statement is now only hours away. Are we all ready to bend over and take another bat where the sun doesn't shine whilst the feckless blow their cash on cigarettes and Sky tv and the rich pay their accountants to come up with schemes to avoid paying any tax?

At the moment it just seems to be a tax bill on promotion to certain ranks. What are the odds that will change and we end up getting a tax bill every year thanks to having a half decent pension if they do cut the limits to 30k?

Talk about potentially disincentivizing a huge chunk of the country from wanting to get on in life. Tomorrow could be the day that finishes off pensions in this country ... and potentially finishes of the Conservative's chances of being re-elected for another decade.
