| No offence to the OP, I can see why it was posted, but this poll is a little pointless on 2 counts: It's biased as it implies the budget will not be severe enough, and that the budget must be severe (obviously, it needs to be, but is that severe for our times or severe in the context of the past two decades? This is ambiguous). Also it makes a prediction about a budget we have not seen ... so wouldn't it be a better idea to do this after the budget is released? Ie, Is the budget severe enough? |

| Agree with NM 123 - How can you poll on this question? Severe against who ? McDaid when commenting following his "Tá" on the budget will state " The Minister got the balance right"

| Severe on who?The ordinary middle class Joe Blogg,who is trying to keep the wolf from the door,while the rest of these Politicos insulate themselves against it.

| In fairness to him, he's done that before, when he resigned as Minister for Defence after FG claimed he was in the IRA (or some such nonsense).
