“The pay bill for the Conservative party’s special advisers will total an estimated £7.9 million this year, Government records show.
Theresa May will keep 32 advisers in Downing Street, the same number as David Cameron, but has reduced the number across Government from 95 to 83.
The lower number of “Spads” means the total bill for their salaries has fallen by £500,000 from its level of £8.4 million under David Cameron.”
