Boris Johnson likes to appoint men of stature to the Treasury.
But it's not the size of their character that appeals to the Prime Minister, but their physical presence, one observer has claimed.
A senior MP says that the PM is deliberately appointing tall Ministers to annoy his image-conscious Chancellor, who stands just 5ft 6in tall.
In last month's reshuffle, Mr Johnson appointed 6ft 5in Simon Clarke as Chief Secretary to the Treasury.
