Talk:Budget of the United Kingdom

message: Hopefully the mention of productivity and international trade will help explain major constraints on budgets with only secondary concerns relating to imperfect information gathering. Let us aspire, at least, to give clear top-line information and show government agencies how this might be done.
 
The need to adopt standard terms in presenting financial information is great and the "Big Six" (see Links "Accounting firms" in the article)seem to have woken up to this by suggesting adoption of XBRL methods and including performance. The Sub-prime (and now unsecured loan?) problems might well have been avoided if risk data were available in real-time. I would welcome a value added and Best value approach to the development of this article. Not sure I can do much more. It will be interesting to see where you experts take this. --Nick Green 03:17, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: it means 'Industry, agriculture,employment and training' hardly obvious. Fortunately the uploader used SVG format which means the text is simpler to change with a product like Inkscape. I'll update the chart later this week to remove the non-obvious abbreviations.

thread_title: IAET

message: Obviously the bulk of this poor article refers to exactly one budget, so it is either obsolete and needs to be rewritten, or the bulk of it could be put into a 'UK Budget of 2008' article, leaving just a stub for 'UK Budget'. Maybe we should just go for the second option? Chiswick Chap (talk) 06:53, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Both topics are notable so in my view a split is the best approach, with this article becoming a stub.Rangoon11 (talk) 13:09, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  Done. Fill in the stub, and all the missing years (article for each), anyone? Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:05, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
