Iain Duncan Smith's limits in 'defending the indefensible'

Today my TV woke to the BBC Breakfast news announcement that Work & Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith has resigned over 'indefensible changes to disability benefits'. And BBC Breakfast interviewed Labour's Work & Pensions Secretary over the matter.

Yet as the BBC did not interview any other Shadow Work & Pensions Secretary today, here I republish a youtube 'liarpoliticians2' clip from the BBC's coverage of the 2015 General Election in which Green Party Work & Pensions Spokesperson Jonathan Bartley challenged IDS over what might be best described as 'death in DWP custody'.



It really does seem to me that IDS' resignation raises more questions than answers. Eg, 
Is this Tory Government so shaky that David Cameron will not last a full second term as Prime Minister? 
Who would the Bullingdon Club Boys Cameron and Osborne have replace IDS as Work & Pensions Secretary?
If IDS has been reviled by benefit claimants as critics as to have been labelled a 'psychopathic murdering wanker', what might they say of Gideon 'George' Osborne?
