John Hutton, the secretary of state at the Department of Work and Pensions, was not a popular man last night.
The devout Blairite was scheduled to defend his plans to contract out many of the state's employment services to the voluntary and private sector at a Labour party fringe event organised by the Public and Commercial Services Union.
The PCS is keen to have a debate on why Mr Hutton believes the third sector is a better alternative than the public sector to deliver many of the JobCentre Plus services, as outlined in the DWP green paper.
