The Financial Times reported that Regus Boss Mark Dixon, predicts a surge in home working, as companies looking to tighten their belts, get more staff to work from home.

Will this be a passing fad when the recession ends or will we see a paradigm shift in how we work and handle the work/life balance?

Denis O'Donnell from Hired Help Ltd, agrees with the Regus founder.  "We are creatures of habit and the habit of getting up every day and going to a place of work is ingrained in our culture.  However, it is a relatively recent phenomena, brought about by the industrial revolution.  Before that, home working was the norm."

The government has limited scope to implement its planned stimulus package as borrowing soars, according to a key economic think-tank.

The Ernst & Young Item club forecasts that net borrowing will rise to £180bn in the forthcoming tax year and will exceed the chancellor's own prediction.

It said that public finances were deteriorating "at an alarming rate".

Shadow chancellor George Osborne called it "the worst fiscal mess any British government has created in peacetime".

The Item club also called for a temporary cut in national insurance contributions to encourage businesses to hire staff.
