Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne was left red-faced after being roundly booed by the Olympic Stadium crowd when he made an appearance at the Paralympics.
The boos swelled around the Olympic Stadium. Initially the politician tried to laugh it off, but looked progressively more uncomfortable as the booing continued.
Even former Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who presented medals to swimmers earlier in the day, was treated to a full cheer from the crowd when his name was announced.
