Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : "If rumours of an imminent cut to the medium-term growth outlook by the Office for Budget Responsibility prove to be true, that makes the delicate balancing act of fiscal prudence and stimulating the economy more precarious than ever." But so far, a tax escape for banks and an encouraging update from DIY retailer Kingfisher are helping lift the FTSE.
44% : Banks are next, with Barclays, Lloyds and NatWest all up over 2.5% on reports that they will escape extra taxes in tomorrow's Budget.
