In theory, the move away from Tax Credits (which subsidise employers who pay poverty wages) to a Living Wage is a good one. In practice, GO's Living Wage will not do what it says on the tin. it is simply not enough to live on, and should have been implemented at a higher rate before the cut in Tax Credits.
Over all, the budget again fails to address to most pressing issue of this generation: climate change. Inequality is simply bad for the environment, and we only have a few years left to implement major economic structural change to limit warming to 2 degrees. (If warming gets to 2 degrees, its effects will increase exponentially and half the planet will be uninhabitable). Not only is this an opportunity missed, the road building plans will make the changes which have to come hurt even more.
