Guardian letter on Tory budget

Les Summers suggests that "few will understand" that Sunak's budget was merely "repairing the damage to the  British economy and social wellbeing" caused by 10 years of Tory austerity (Letters, 13/03/20). I think most people will soon realise that it will take far more than one budget adopting a limited Keynesian approach to restore society to its pre-austerity situation. With rents still too high, the lower-paid no better off, rich individuals and corporations neither contributing more nor having their tax avoidance methods checked, and social services struggling to survive,  the message is clear. Little has changed. 

    No one should be fooled: any  one believing that this  budget proves Johnson's government is pursuing  so- called "one nation Conservatism" should study the evidence!
