The economy has reached record highs following the decision by the government to lower taxes and increase investment in business and industry. The budget co-incided with a bill to remove income tax for the poorest people of Ostentia, although the positive effects this has are likely to be cancelled out in the short term at least by the Finance Minister's decision to reduce the welfare budget. The proportion of people in favour of government transport policy has also fallen sharply. A second budget has been announced, and will, if passed, reduce the BTR to its lowest rate for many terms. It is unclear how much opposition it will face in the house though. In other news, the Met Office is predicting that an area of high pressure currently over Emprthrinia is likely to move north towards Falahn. If true, then we could be in for a hot summer. |

FOR THE LAST TIME! The Mock Parliament economy is simplified so that we don't all have to get a degree from Cambridge in order to understand it. Under the system, an increase in the Industry & Business budget will result in an increase in the Economy Rating. It's the way it has always worked. |

Well at the moment the admin and 2 moderaters are all in the cabinet. It just smells fishy to me. |
