The Emergency Budget - what would you cut?

On 22nd June, just under two weeks away, Chancellor George Osborne will unveil this years second Budget; the so-called Emergency Budget.  In it he will outline Government plans to start tacking the deficit straight away.  Both he and David Cameron have already gone on the record saying that the cuts will be painful for everyone.

In order to lessen the blow of the cuts, the Treasury has begun a consultation exercise in order to ascertain what the public at large are willing to see cut (and by how much) in order to start bringing the country's colossal debt under control.

This box can hide a secret inside.  Can you guess what is in it today?

To that extent, today's blog is a very simple affair.  I would like to ask you, my readers, to tell me what you would like to see cut in order to save money.

Please post your ideas in the comments section below.  I'll give you all a week or so to let me know and I'll post again next Saturday with my own ideas.
