Sweet (erotic) dreams, George Osborne tells radio presenter

Chancellor records message for BBC radio host who admitted during discussion on erotic dreams that he had featured in her reveries

Few, perhaps, would consider George Osborne to be prime material for erotic reveries ? which is no doubt why the chancellor was moved to send a saucy message to a BBC radio presenter who admitted he had featured in her dreams.

Osborne recorded a message to be played during Radio 5 Live presenter Shelagh Fogarty's final breakfast show before she moves to a lunchtime programme.

Her departure would give her "more hours for those dreams you've been having", Osborne said, wishing her well and saying he hoped she would get to enjoy more sleep.

The chancellor was referring to an occasion earlier this year when co-presenter Nicky Campbell mentioned during a discussion about erotic dreams that a member of the team had dreamed about the chancellor.

When it was revealed that the person in question was Fogarty, she admitted: "I'm rumbled ? I'm going to come clean now. For political balance, you need to know that some years before it was Neil Kinnock."

Osborne, who on Wednesday was seen laughing at David Cameron's "calm down dear" remark to Angela Eagle, the shadow chief secretary to the treasury, at PMQs, adopted a different demeanour in his message, recorded as part of a farewell package for Fogarty.

He said: "Well, Shelagh, it's George Osborne here, the chancellor of the exchequer. I just wanted to say it's sad to be losing you from the breakfast programme, but I know you'll do a great job on the lunchtime programme.

"It does give you, of course, more hours sleep every day. More hours for those dreams you've been having. And so I'm sure you'll have sweet dreams, and I look forward to being interviewed by you on your lunchtime programme."
