Vince Cable: Tory names for jobless 'unacceptable'
The Lib Dem Business Secretary Vince Cable has said he is "uncomfortable" with some of his Tory coalition colleagues referring to the unemployed as "skivers".
He said that people who are out of work should be treated with "dignity" while accepting that the economic situation necessitates a "squeeze on the welfare budget".
ITV News' Political Correspondent Libby Wiener asked him whether he is comfortable supporting the benefits cap:
