Chancellor John Healey will deliver his first Budget in Parliament in a fortnight, and he needs to triple-check his proposals. Past chancellors like Hugh Dalton and Kwasi Kwarteng were forced out after their Budgets, while Gordon Brown and Kenneth Clarke had to make U-turns. George Osborne's 2012 Budget also led to unpopular "pasty tax" and "caravan tax" measures.
