In the United Kingdom there is a day designated annually so that the Government’s annual budget to be presented. On that date the Chancellor of the State Treasury reaches Parliament carrying your documents in a red Briefcase, tal and which are doing all those who have held that Office from Gladstone in the 1860s; to then expose it in the House of Commons and receive comments and criticism from the Secretary of the Treasury of the opposition and other figures. The figure of the Chancellor, who is associated with the of the Minister of economy and in Germany to the Prime Minister, in Latin America in Britain is associated with the super-Secretary in charge of the treasure of the nation. This is the second most important post of all Government and which has in charge lives in the House next to the Prime Minister in Downing Street. Current Prime Minister Gordon Brown was Chancellor during all term of Tony Blair. He ended up replacing Blair in the Premiership although in a more cordial manner with which the former Conservative John Major Chancellor replaced the 28 November 1990 to the Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

The importance of budget 2008 this is the first time since labour came to power in May 1997, in which the annual budget has been presented by another person who was not Gordon Brown. While Brown kept some independence and even clashes with his Prime Minister, the new Chancellor of the Treasury Alistair Darling is branded be a subordinate who preceded him in Office. For the leader of the liberal opposition, Nick Clegg, Darling speech seemed a work of political ventriloquism. Blair and labour always presented to Brown as the most successful Chancellor in British history. Today when Brown is in the head of the Government and don’t have to rub or differ with Blair, he presents exactly your model in its purest form.
