Budget 2011 podcast: George Osborne goes for growth

George Osborne claims his budget will get Britain's stuttering economy growing again. In his Commons speech, he pointed to a cut in corporation tax, a penny off the cost of petrol and business-friendly changes in planning laws. But in the course of his hour-long address to MPs, he was forced to downgrade growth figures for this year and next - a move that was pounced on by Labour leader Ed Miliband. To discuss what the chancellor claimed was a " fiscally neutral " budget we have in the studio the Guardian's economics editor, Larry Elliott , and columnists Martin Kettle and Polly Toynbee . The budget raises several questions. Does a change in the way tax allowances are calculated amount to a "stealth tax"? Will a cut in fuel duty be enough to ease the financial pain on households? And will the government really be able to raise £1bn by targeting tax avoiders? Leave your thoughts below. This is a joint edition of The Business podcast and Politics Weekly .
