It's Your Chance to Be Chancellor, Young Huntingdon

Our local MP Jonathan Djanogly is calling on all the young people of Huntingdon to take up the challenge and share their views on the budget. It's your chance to be Chancellor of the Exchequer. You could win an iPad.

So what economic decisions would you make? What would your Budget for the country be? Which taxes will you levy on society? Where would you choose to spend the money you've raised? Here is a chance for the young people in your school to have their say.

Chance to be Chancellor is open to all 14-18 year olds across the UK and is being run by the Citizenship Foundation, in partnership with Aviva.

Chance to be Chancellor is a web tool that will challenge you to make the difficult, but hopefully informed decisions on real taxation & spending policies. Last year Chance to be Chancellor engaged around 3000 young people across the UK and their views were published in the first ever 'Youth Budget'.

Running until the 20 February, you can enter into a national competition to win great prizes. The overall winner will receive an iPad, make the news, get invited to a special event at the HM Treasury and become the face of the Youth Budget 2012.

For a chance to win the national competition, visit the Paying for It site.
