IDS in protesters’ service station smackdown

IAIN DUNCAN SMITH was heckled by angry protesters at a Staffordshire motorway ­service station yesterday morning.

At around 10am, a couple of eagle-eyed campaigners spotted the Work and Pensions Secretary on his way to the ­Conservative Party conference in Manchester.

Those who recognised his face gave him a public earful over his treatment of poor and disabled people, slamming his punishing cuts to welfare.

Coachloads of travellers buying hot drinks and snacks at Road Chef in Cannock, the majority on their way to the city for the anti-Tory march, looked on in surprise at the uproar.

Mr Duncan Smith, his lip zipped, walked out of the building trailed by a woman loudly questioning him about the punititive bedroom tax.
