Gove Falls on His Arse
One of the perils for any politician is the media is constantly waiting for you to slip up and take a painful fall.
Rarely is this meant literally though.

That’s the kiss of death for him then.
it’s a complete mystery
BTW who the fuck are you ?
Who’s asking?
common fucking sense you tit
Gove has his “Kinnock Moment”
You cannot seriously compare the two. Gove has handled himself brilliantly in biased BBC interviews and in demolishing Ed Balls in Parliament last week. I can’t stand Cameron and his cronies but Gove deserves respect for his robust well delivered style.
Kinnock on the other hand: !!!!! ALL of Kinnock’s career was a “Kinnock Moment”.
If we didn’t have that film clip of the Kinnocks making that emabarrassing slip on the beach, there are countless other TV clips that could come to the fore to take it’s place. Just 30 seconds of a typical pompous Kinnock speech would be enough to tarnish any politician’s reputation.

This windbaggery is typical of most “Kinnock Moments”

He clearly tripped on one of Miliband’s old banana skins……….
Or Mandy’s botty lube.
that was Dave and Nick’s daily lube Gove was scurrying in to quickly give them
Does Gove apply said lube?
With his tongue as befits an Oik like him.
Clearly hes a victim of Mandys Voodoo dolls and black magic curses.

David Miliband slipped up on the banana skin yesterday. Apparently New Labour did not wreck the UK economy.
So that would explain New Labour’s policies that created the first run on a UK bank in over 100 years, wasting £1bn bailing out failed businesses (banks) that should have collapsed like all other businesses, dropping interest rates so low as to create an unsustainable credit boom, dropping interest rates so low as to see an exodos of savers cash so the savers stop propping up the failed banks / government / feckless borrowers.
Yes, the UK economy screwed up all by itself / or blame it all on America.
The BBC is now describing it as the ” recession debt “. No mention at all of the pre-recession debt built over years by the structural deficit. This is clearly the new mantra instructed by Labour to the BBC etc. t was the recession that did it. Until then everything was perfect, apparently.
The BBC needs to be cut back immediately. They continue to pedal the Labour lies. The fact remains that Labour racked up huge amounts of debt on their pet projects. Note to the Coalition, “computer systems” do not save money.
Milliband is a f*cking shit bag and need his stupid moon face caved in with a hammer. Jugged eared c*nt
Look lets do the sums on savings via cuts or disbanding of the BBC.Once the government see the possibilities the BBC will die
dogshit?
he’s not even that good
Naw Gordon shit ….its still not cleaned up yet
McFuck is living rough on the Embankment with all the other Jocks in London. At night he sneaks into Downing Street to shit on the pavement. They really should have taken his key away.
M_ark O_aten: Save some for me!
Well, John McDonnell’s leadership campaign fell flat on it’s @rse yesterday…..
We know where you live McDonnell.
I bet he’s shitting himself
Just typical Labour spiteful shit. Labour aren’t clever and therefore rely on insults for humour – all Labour are really and truly as thick as pig shit and their females look like horses. Is it compulsory to be ugly in order to be a female Labour supporter? Looks like it.
Loved the way the party faithful cheered and applauded his remark. Socialism is the sign of a diseased mind.
The IRA tried to assassinate Maggie and that was a failure.
McDonnell’s clearly from the same sub-human mindset.
Doeasn’t this twat know that Maggie is as universally well loved as Dave is ? What a complete fool!!!
“Labour aren’t clever and therefore rely on insults for humour – all Labour are really and truly as thick as pig shit and their females look like horses.”
what a tool
Still not a patch on Kinnockio falling on his arse in Blackpool. No doubt someone more tech savvy than me will be able to find a link.
Cheers, Four Eyes.
Note how he moves land-side of his wife. Class.
I’ve seen that clip so many times but it is wonderful to see again the moment (okay – along with his demented ‘AWRIGHT’ brain-storm) when we were all saved from the incompetent gobshite.
And looking more closely I see we have Glenis to thank for that since it was she who ran over him and tripped him up to get away from the wave rather than just getting a bit wet and making a joke of it.
Kinnock must relive that moment the same way Brown relives Cameron’s 2007 Conference speech. The day he knew he’d blown it.
Har de har har har.
out of his depth in the shallow end, yep thats kinnochio
Nobody would bother assassinating McDonnell. It would be a complete waste of time and a cartridge. The bloke’s clearly brain-dead anyway.
We love maggie
What a complete tit. When I first heard announce his candidacy I thought he sounded fairly reasonable, and was pleasantly surprised. But alas he is a a bellend.
Stupid prat. We he can’t stand up for himself.
Where’s Gordon Brown these days? He’s still an MP but seems to have vanished.
He’s in a care home in Bonnie Scotland staring at the wall and dropping his chin rhythmically onto his well-caloried chest. The one-eyed, tax-grabbing, tax-wasting bastard.
No doubt he’s happily esconced on the “Bass Rock”
Where’s Sarah Brown? Off to Lesbos with her gal pals. I wonder if you can get Duracells in Greece?
Wrong sort of leaves on the pavement
The age of ‘austerity’
Starts today with a reduction in the number of street cleaners by 1.
Well now?
I presume this will be laughed over by the Have I Got News For You team on Friday. Oddly they never played the video of Gordon Brown picking his nose. I wonder why?
To be fair they do keep playing the clip of Alan Sugar getting pissed off when asked about the recession. And Prescott got a good kicking from Hislop last week.
Did Presfuck twat him one?
I’m hoping to fall on Michael’s arse later.
Makes a change from Mandelson falling on someone else’s arse…
Or Dave falling on mine…
It is a shame that there are no results for Gordon Brown Jogging on Youtube.
seen him trotting to the bog after a nasty curry

Just been reading that there is a debate going on who coined the names Davnik Camerclegg and Nikoli Cleggeron.I say it was on this site.
Davnik Cleggeron was on this site very early on
He’s still on but using whatever moniker suits the news.
Ouch! Poor guy I bet that hurt. You really do have to ask yourself just why these media types hang around streets just waiting………… and waiting ……… and like Laura Hoonsburger asking dumb questions to anyone who is listening (and is never prepared to answer ) like “Have you decided on the cuts yet”. What a way to earn a living – shoving through crowds of fellow media/newpaper hacks trying to get a word or two – how embarassing.
Silly cow should be asking where’s Gordon?
Actually, where is Gordon?
who’s Gordon
notice none of the bastards expressed any concern or a Are you OK? kuntz
Wet pavement, newish flat-soled shoes. Been there, done that. Ouch.
That could trigger a claim
LMAO
I’m sure Esther Rancid has already called him to offer a no win, no HoC seat deal…
Brilliantly timed advert from Esther on this very site!
Segs, doncha love em
Are they like blakeys?
They are one and the same. Gove should be admired though – he is clearing trying to save money on shoe leather.
“I hate your butler”
“Rarely is this meant literally though.”Are you implying it was this time?
The Treasury said the Fitch report “made the case” for its policy of speeding up spending cuts.
“Fitch’s report makes the case clearly for an acceleration of deficit reduction, particularly in light of events in the euro-area sovereign debt market in recent months,” a spokesperson said.
Fitch noted that the new coalition government had acted “very quickly”, making deficit reduction a top priority.
But it also sounded a note of caution. It said the Guido Fawkes , established to make an independent assessment of the UK economy, could deliver a more pessimistic outlook, offsetting the impact of efforts to cut spending.
That’s the last time I say to Michael Gove “Break A Leg”
Custard Pies next in the House of Commons
I thought the cook books were for massive muffins?
Anyway (green) custard has already been used on Mandlebum.
Did he enjoy it?
Only when it dribbled in his mouth
Now why didn’t this sort of thing happen to that nasty piece of work – the previous Schools’ Secretary!!
Next cold-snap just water his front step and path overnight and then set up your camera.
Or if you can’t wait until the next cold snap, a length of near-invisible fishing line six inches off the ground should do it. Preferably at the top of a long flight of steps.
the bores vacate Sky
It’s Global Warming, innit. Ice in June.
Never mind the pratfall, what about the financial situation of the country.
It irks me enormously that the NuLab administration and key players have not been held accountable for their ruin of the economy, in particular Brown, who masterminded the Quantitive Easing (ie. print monopoly money) scandal. if this was business, these guys would never be allowed to run a company again, and might be held personally liable for their arrogant failure. Why not something on that Guido? Reckless endangerment comes to mind, especially as I and others will be paying for their folly for years to come.
Osborne is asking the public for their input on turning the country’s finances around.
Not sure why though, after this gem in the Daily Mail this morning: “Tax cyclists”.
That’s how good Osborne is, asking for input, can’t he think of anything?
This way he can pass the buck when there is a public outcry at the extent of the cuts – “your ideas, not mine”
Quite shrewd really.
As part of his brief, Michael Gove – Minister for Schools and Children – decided to exhibit his understanding of school children by falling over like one. This is seen as politically correct as it shows young ones that they are not clumsy tossers when they fall over all the time.
Mr Gove will eventually be moved to the Department of Health where he is expected to have a heart attack.
We are also in talks with David Laws and anticipate him becoming Minister of Prisons.
Mr. Gove fell on his pratt. Mr. Balls IS a pratt. Simples.
Gove was lucky. When I fell over in 1961 I fell forwards and broke a top front tooth. I suppose I ought to have sued the school.
It’s never too late, lets see, 49 years at £10000/year, citing disfigurement, spoilt your career as a model etc. Send my cut to Acc No 65423774.
Brilliant! The best bit is the way he looks round after he gets up (as David Laws said to his landlord). The ‘What have I just trodden in?’ moment.
The, did anybody notice moment.
Not really funny. It looks like a painful little tumble. If they had any decency they would have let it pass and not broadcast it. And I hate his guts.
Well said.
‘Decency’? Oh do come on, these are the ‘gentlemen’ of the Press. They can spell the word, but they really don’t know what it means.
It doesn’t matter how successful he becomes now, the BBC will always show him falling on his backside.
Not unless they pay us the copyrights
Guido,under which category does this Gove story come?
Is it a plot,rumour or conspiracy?
None – just a good laugh.
I second that.
I’ve warmed to Groves lately- he is not the nerd I first thought he was. And he slipped on his arse with style. So I’ll give him 5.9, not the full 6–:-)
OK so Style = 5.9. What about Content and Technical? Say 5.2 and 5.7 respectively?
I look forward to the next round in the Olympic Prat-fall heats. He’s definitely in with a chance. Nice to see we Brits on top form again. Would never have happened in Brown’s day.
If Balls fell on his arse he would be saved by his mighty muffins.
Comment 100!
Laura Hoonsburger is comparing Cameron’s idea of asking the public about spending cuts to Gordon Brown’s idea of taking the cabinet around the country. He might have had cabinet meetings in various parts of the country but apart from visiting different companies prior to the cabinet meetings did he ever ask the public anything? Even if he did he was unlikely to listen since he never listened to anyone in his cabinet or anyone else except perhaps Sarah “I can use Twitter” Brown.
Have the Browns emigrated?
Have they emigrated?
We can but hope.
Never was the word ‘pratfall’ more suitably employed.
Injury Lawyers 4 U.
Why does that twat in the advert say ‘we are 100% lawyers’ when they clearly arent? He was an actor on The Bill.
Lying bastard.
PENALTY
You’re all right?
You’re all right.
