:00:53. > :00:59.Iain Duncan Smith and the Chancellor, George Osborne, all
:01:00. > :01:05.smiles. But it is a relationship that had long been testy, and was
:01:06. > :01:09.tested to destruction by this week's budget. Iain Duncan Smith came into
:01:10. > :01:13.government in order to put social justice at the heart of British
:01:14. > :01:21.politics and to do welfare reform. His feeling is that this is one cut
:01:22. > :01:23.too far, and that the best way of protecting the poorest is for him to
:01:24. > :01:27.leave government now. Iain Duncan Smith's resignation letter was
:01:28. > :01:48.Azinger. By questioning, just as the
:01:49. > :01:53.Conservatives's critics have long done, the Tory slogan to justify the
:01:54. > :01:56.cuts, Mr Duncan Smith knowingly provided the government's opponents
:01:57. > :02:02.with ammunition, leaving ministers on the defensive. The budget
:02:03. > :02:07.proposals were endorsed by the whole Cabinet on Wednesday morning, before
:02:08. > :02:09.the Chancellor presented them to Parliament, and he was obviously
:02:10. > :02:12.part of that process. These proposals came from his department,
:02:13. > :02:17.but it has been acknowledged now they need a bit more time, bit more
:02:18. > :02:21.work. This is the new Work and Pensions Secretary, Stephen Crabb.
:02:22. > :02:25.He used to be the Welsh Secretary, he was brought up in a council house
:02:26. > :02:30.before becoming an MP, you worked in the voluntary sector and as a youth
:02:31. > :02:34.worker. He now faces a huge political challenge, shaking up the
:02:35. > :02:42.benefits system at a time when budgets are being squeezed. Chris is
:02:43. > :02:46.with me, how damaging is this? This is government with the bonnet up, we
:02:47. > :02:52.are able to stare up at the moving parts, the parts David Cameron would
:02:53. > :02:56.rather keep shut out. There has undeniably been something of a testy
:02:57. > :02:59.relationship between Mr Osborne and Iain Duncan Smith. But the big
:03:00. > :03:02.picture is the government is trying to make lots of savings to deal with
:03:03. > :03:06.the deficit. Any government trying to do that would look at the welfare
:03:07. > :03:11.budget, because it does follow up a lot of money. So there is also the
:03:12. > :03:16.-- always the potential for that clash to happen between the two
:03:17. > :03:21.occupiers of those roles. The added twist was the personal animosity in
:03:22. > :03:25.this instance, and the ability to paper over the cracks was not going
:03:26. > :03:30.to work any more. A very dangerous time for George Osborne, a wannabe
:03:31. > :03:34.Prime Minister, one backbencher saying he has a high-handed and
:03:35. > :03:38.short termist approach. While many will praise Stephen Crabb is a good
:03:39. > :03:42.fit in this new role, others will be saying hang on a minute, he is
:03:43. > :03:46.pro-staying in the EE, whereas Iain Duncan Smith wasn't. --
