One of the main reasons I didn’t become a politician is my utter contempt for the public and when I see polling like this it reaffirms my decision.

This polling is part of some wider polling by YouGov as we approach tomorrow’s budget, I feel sorry for the politicians that have to appease the public when they are in this mood.

Increasing taxes on the rich despite it reducing the tax raised is a it like peeing your pants, it might give you a warm feeling but eesh.
