Domestic demand drivers, private investment, combating corruption...he's said all the necessary things, he's also said that 'mere words are not enough, we need a roadmap'...should we raise our hopes, whatever the budget turns out to be, this is a good beginning.

An interesting contrarian view, and one which will be even more interesting once we know the budget's fiscal performance
