James Duddridge, Member of Parliament for Rochford and Southend East issues his reaction following the budget.
James said
""This is a great budget that simplifies and reduces tax for hard working families in Rochford and Southend East. This is a budget that will get Essex and the United Kingdom back to work by helping small business flourish though simpler and lower Corporation tax.
This is a radical, reforming Budget which helps Britain earn its way in the world. It is a Budget that rewards work. It unashamedly backs business and puts us on the side of those who aspire to do better for themselves and their families.""
