George Osborne's hair benefits from a cut | George Osborne's hair benefits from a cut |

Welfare reform might have made the biggest headlines this week but George Osborne's haircut also raised a few eyebrows. Moving on from the spiky, overgrown style spotted last week – and rightly reprimanded in the Guardian – the chancellor used his big day as an opportunity to give his hair the kind of hacking the Tories usually reserve for the welfare state. | Welfare reform might have made the biggest headlines this week but George Osborne's haircut also raised a few eyebrows.

If the speech itself proved divisive, then the haircut is bound to unite opinion. A neat, side-parted style, possibly tamed with a bit of wax, this is the kind of short-back-and-sides look that recalls the no-nonsense real men of Don Draper's generation, and has been adopted by David Beckham. Worn with a natty lavender tie that matched the lectern's border (hello, accessorising), there's even a suggestion of unmined sartorial potential here. But remember, this isn't just a spring style makeover; this is propaganda in hair form. Times are tough, it whispers, but here's a guy you can rely on. | If the speech itself proved divisive, then the haircut is bound to unite opinion.
