Three things jumped out at me:

100% council tax premium on empty properties.

Compulsory purchase of land banked by developers for financial reasons.

Review into delays in permitted developments going forward.

For the man who told me on here last week that this isn't a problem, the government obviously think it is!

As for the rest. Where are the big numbers like the £350million a week for the NHS? They are getting their £350million but that has to see them through the entire winter.

No mention about how we are going to find the huge costs for Brexit. The only clue that they are expecting trouble ahead is the expected fall in growth to 1.3% in two years time. To suggest a piddling £3bn is going to see us through any crisis is baffling.

As expected, its a cautionary budget of very low numbers.
