PR supremo Stephen Carter is appointed to key No 10 role by leader who spurned spin

Mr Carter was reputed to be earning £500,000. At Downing Street he will be paid the top salary available for a special adviser — £137,000. However, he can reasonably expect compensation for whatever short-term salary reduction he suffers when he returns to business with the title of Principal Special Adviser in No 10 on his CV.
