What you need to know about cloud backup
Gordon Brown is set to announce the Budget will happen at the end of the month, increasing the likelihood that the election will be on 6 May.
The Budget will be presented to Parliament on 24 March.
Brown is due to speak at Reuters HQ later today. In quotes given to news agencies he will say: "We are at a turning point, a crossroads, for our domestic economic recovery - and for the global economic governance that will shape the next decades for us and our children, and for families and children all across the world. The stakes are high. We dare not risk the recovery.
"We have got through this storm together but there are still substantial risks ahead. There will be bumps in the road. And I believe the only way to overcome them is by displaying the same strength and resolve as we did during the crisis."
Brown will hope to see some improvement despite yesterday's jump in trade deficit, which wasn't helped by the falling pound. He's probably also cheered by David Cameron's apparent determination to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. ®

How hard can it be to have at least one party worth fucking voting for?

"We have got through this storm together but there are still substantial risks ahead. There will be bumps in the road. And I believe the only way to overcome them is by displaying the same strength and resolve as we did during the crisis."
Together:
In association with or in relationship to one another; mutually or reciprocally.
By joint or cooperative effort.
I must have missed my invite to the discussions concerning the bailing out of the banks.
Seems to me that any decisions that were made to get through this storm were reached without any relationship or co-operation with the British tax payer. And were in fact, entirely unilateral.
We have got through this storm by stealing from the poor and giving to the rich whilst allowing still substantial amounts of bonuses to be leeched from the system. There are potholes in the road which will be filled by the tax payer to create a smooth surface for the rich to ride upon. I believe the only way to maintain growth is to make sure the proles are thoroughly taxed and kept in place with piecemeal laws introduced to obscure our true agenda and instill fear. This paves the way for us to display the same strength and resolve that allowed the crises to deepen in the first place, only this time our incompetence will be offset by extra taxation and hidden by statistics.
