Some of this was said by Iain Duncan Smith and some of it wasn't...You decide what he actually believes...
2) Universal Credit - "The strategic business case for universal credit has been approved by Treasury ministers for the remainder of the parliament."
3) Cycling - "I'm lucky that mountain biking wasn't around when I was 20, because I wouldn't have won the Tour de France. It's my kind of sport - hard, individualistic, and not a lot of tactics."
4) The Work Programme - “This is not a nasty, vicious system.”
5) Disposable Income - "Disposable income… is at its highest level that it has been for a long time. The poorest 10 per cent are now spending a lower proportion of their income on food because their disposable income has improved."
6) Child Poverty - “No. Child poverty is actually falling.”
7) Soccer - "Pulling on your country's shirt is the greatest honour...It's what I always dreamed of as a kid and I get a buzz every time."
8) Unemployment - "I have been unemployed twice in my life so I have already done this. I know what it is like to live on the breadline."
9) Hair - "Post-shower, I always wrap my hair in a turban for twenty minutes or so. Then, if it’s a good day, I will use either a squirt of Shu Uemura Art of Hair Essence Absolue or Moroccanoil Treatment on my damp hair to give it a bit of TLC! But that’s only once a week, probably. I always give my hair a blast with the hairdryer – as it’s so thick it takes forever to dry so this just gets the process started."
