The Chancellor - the now-immoveable Spreadsheet Phil - will be looking for cuts to fund more money for the NHS and teaching - it's their only hope of winning the next election now. I'm pretty sure that defence will take a hit - remains to be seen if they just stretch programmes (F-35, Successor, MBT), mothball (the carriers) or cut (manpower, F26, P-8)
