Looking for the best industry reaction in 140 characters or less? Well, here it is...

#budget, no opening parry, a thrust and attack at previous government. Emergency Budget = Rescue, this budget = Reform, next = recovery

Alistair Cunningham
I'll have some clients happy to hear about £10m Entrepreneurs' relief!

Dennis Hall
Another jab from Osborne on the sale of gold by previous government #budget - is this a budget or a boxing match

Ros Altmann
indexing tax system to cpi instead of rpi is hidden tax rise and increases fiscal drag relative to status quo

Richard Allum
Might take on an apprentice now.

Ros Altmann
Existing pensioners will be furious about £140pw state pension only for new pensioners. However, at least system will be simpler in future

Philippa Gee
My overall view: how will this budget help those who are retired & are struggling to make their money last their lifetime? #budget11

Andrew Neil
Non doms seem to get off quite lightly. And promises no further changes. #bbcbudget #budget2011

Martin Bamford
How does the 3 year moratorium from 1st April 2011 on micro-businesses & start-ups from new regulation interact with the RDR?

Mark Ireland
