To placate drivers facing record pump prices he announced a cut
in the price of fuel by 1p per litre and unveiled a Fair Fuel
Stabiliser to help keep costs down in future - to be funded by an
increased levy on oil and gas production.

He also confirmed plans to raise the personal tax allowance by a


further £630, to £8,105, a real increase of £48 extra per year, or
£126 in cash terms.

And he claimed that together with this year's rise, it would mean
a total of £326 extra money each year for "those working hard to
pay for their family's needs".

But he announced a cut in growth forecasts amid continuing bad


economic news.

Mr Osborne's second budget was greeted by cheers on the


Coalition benches but was damned by Labour leader Ed
Miliband. He said: "It is the same old Tories. It is hurting but it
isn't working".

She died at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles surrounded by
her four children after having been hospitalised six weeks ago
with congestive heart failure, a statement from publicist Sally
Morrison said.

A statement released by her son Michael Wilding said: "My


mother was an extraordinary woman who lived life to the
fullest, with great passion, humour, and love. Though her loss is
devastating to those of us who held her so close and so dear, we
will always be inspired by her enduring contribution to our
world."

Taylor appeared in her first film at the age of nine, for


Universal. Her next movie was Lassie Come Home (1943) and
her first leading role, at the age of 12, was in National Velvet
(1944).

She was a powerful actress who won an Academy Award for


playing a call girl in Butterfield 8 (1960), another for her
portrayal of a foul-mouthed alcoholic in Who's Afraid of
Virginia Woolf? (1967), and earned Oscar nominations for Cat
on a Hot Tin Roof, Suddenly, Last Summer and Raintree
County.

She was the first star to receive $1,000,000 for a film. Her
career spanned around half a century and involved more than 60
films and TV shows.

Taylor married eight times - twice to the same man, Richard


Burton - and was hailed as the most breathtakingly beautiful
woman in the world. With her lush black hair, her striking violet
eyes, her heart-shaped face and dark eyelashes she was the
unchallenged sex symbol of her generation.
Elizabeth Taylor was born in Hampstead, north London, but
with US nationality, on February 27 1932. Her father was an art
dealer and her mother a retired actress.
