In the latest episode of the politics and property podcast, EG's senior writer Piers Wehner and former Conservative minister Mark Prisk take a look at the contents of the Spring Budget.
They have digested 61 minutes of the chancellor's speech, 122 pages of the Red Book and reams of supporting documents so that you don't have to.
They also have a look at what the politicians get up to in Cannes, why this might finally be the last gasp for Prisk's baby, the Local Enterprise Partnerships, and how he may have provided the inspiration for The Thick of It.
