MPs attending an evening debate on welfare reforms were delayed for four hours last night after thieves risked life and limb to steal Vince Cable outside Kings Cross. The rise in this type of crime is thought to be related to the economic crisis and is the latest a spate of Vince Cable thefts across London and the boroughs.
'People who have been put out of work and are now struggling to make ends meet have taken to stealing Vince Cable wherever they can find him,' said Gordon Roadrage, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Police. 'Vince Cable is being stolen from railways, from telegraph poles. We've found Vince Cable in people's attics and allotment sheds. He's even been sold at car boot sales.'
A replacement Secretary of State for Business Innovation and Skills has been running between the Houses of Commons and the Liberal Democrat Headquarters on Great George Street.
The Chairman of the Board of Governors for Frail Old Has-Beens, Lord Camberwick-Dustybin, has called for CCTV to be installed in Mr. Cable's Fedora.
