Extract from the Chancellor's diary

From here:
Tuesday
Iain Duncan Smith catches up with me and Dave after Cabinet, and says he really needs to talk about low pay.
“No,” says Dave. “If you can’t cope on your parliamentary creditcard, you’ll just have to get your own. These are the rules.”
IDS says he doesn’t mean that. He means the budget, and the minimum wage. He’s hoping it’ll go up.
“No spoilers,” I say. “But look. I’ll just say this. You won’t be disappointed.”
“Yeah!” says IDS. “RAAAAAGH!”
Then he clenches his fists, punches the sky a few times, and headbutts a wall. Then he leaves.
“He’s f***ing terrifying,” says Dave.
You better believe it ...
