It's interesting how the national papers differ.

Although not a local issue, I can't resist repeating a snippet from Inside Housing magazine.

'The question of who will be worst affected by the comprehensive spending review has played on the minds of many. Thankfully Fleet Street's finest have been on hand to let the waiting public know.

The Daily Mail is in no doubt. 'Middle class will be hit hardest' a headline on page two of the paper proclaimed on Thursday. The Mirror was equally certain. 'Poorest 10 per cent hit the hardest' it stated. Thankfully The Telegraph was on hand to remind everyone that the Queen's means had also been 'cut by £6 million'.'

It's good to see that, as ever, one can never believe what one reads in our papers!!
