Iain Duncan Smith has gone through the final stage of separating himself from David Cameron’s government by unfriending him on Facebook. He now also describes himself as ‘politically single’ on his profile.

This morning, IDS went about the heart-wrenching task of removing David Cameron from his life by removing all social media links between the pair (blocking him on Twitter) as well as posting the ‘Best of Phil Collins’ CD the Prime Minister had lent him through the letterbox of 10 Downing Street.

The split came after David Cameron repeatedly sided with Chancellor George Osborne over key policy issues, as well as constant disagreements over the placement of various knick-knacks in their cabinet meeting room.

Sources close to Duncan Smith are saying that he is inconsolable about the split and that he is currently listening to a Taylor Swift album on repeat whilst eating a big bowl of triple chocolate ice cream.

Perhaps most telling is the single tweet that IDS posted this morning.

‘You disabled my heart.’
