DAVID Cameron’s efforts to be the Prime Thin-ister were aided by £21,000 of discounts from a top personal trainer, official records show.
He declared 150 cut-price sessions from trainer-to-the-stars Matt Roberts as donations during his time as Premier.
Mr Cameron was often photographed running in London with Matt — who claims to work with “some of the most famous physiques in fashion, music, politics and industry”.
He boasts on his website of honing the bodies of comic Michael McIntyre and TV star Amanda Holden.
