  after being approached by 3 individuals in a matter of minutes enquiring as to whether i had a "spare" cigarette, i decided to rest me feet and sit on a bench facing our river.
  
  within seconds a dishevelled individual sidled up to me and asked the question "can you lend me 50 pence"?
  
  being a kindly soul i thought i will not throw him in the river and then gently expalined why i would have to refuse his request.
  
  i said to him "i understand that the budget would bring tax rises, spending cuts and funding to councils, but is this a good way of generating revenue mr watkins"?
  
  ok a bit of exaggeration there.
