THE 2011 Budget will be announced in just under an hour – and we want to hear how it affects residents of Welwyn Hatfield.

Chancellor George Osborne will outline plans to drag Britain’s economy back onto its feet in the House of Commons at 12.30pm today (Wednesday).

Among some of the measures Mr Osborne is expected to announce is a �250m package to help first-time homebuyers get on the property ladder, and a proposed rise in fuel duty being scrapped.

The Welwyn Hatfield Times will be speaking to businesses and residents from in and around Times Territory, after Mr Osborne’s announcement.
