InVinceCable We Trust

Our man Vince has a PhD in Economics. He lectured at the London School of Economics. More than 40 years ago he was Treasury Finance Officer to the Kenyan Government. In the 70s Vince was Special Advisor to John Smith when Smith was Industry Secretary. In 1995 he became Chief Economist at Shell. He's written well-received books on economics.

All this I glean from Vince's Wikipedia entry. Try finding a reference to economics in George Osborne's back story. Or, for that matter, the current Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Now, who do you trust with the country's purse strings?
