Yesterday’s supposed Gove grilling by Labour’s Education select committee bunglers turned out to be a damp squib, with Bill Esterson not knowing the difference between the department’s permanent civil servant and the education editor of the Indy. Afterwards fellow Labour MP Ian Mearns wrote to Gove trying to salvage some dignity. He probably shouldn’t have bothered:
Some might say he floats like a butterfly…

Ed Balls stretches credulity by claiming he isn’t ambitious…
“I would love to be part of Ed’s Labour government but what I do next for me is not an all-consuming passion. I’m more bothered, in a personal sense, about getting to grade 8 piano by the time I’m 50.”

I like the scribbled signature, which is code for “F uck the f uck off”.
Guido, you must be delighted that a Fanatical Jesuit and friend of the Argentinian Junta has been installed as Pope .
Beware the Ides of March (tomorrow).
Tess May you have a competitor.
The next First Lord of the Treasury
Yes a friend of the junta in much the same way those the Nazis didnt kill must have been supporters-idiot
Sounds more like a bleeding heart Liebourite with his concerns for the “poor”.
More of an inept committee than a select committee.
Well I’ll be damned.
what are these committees for? they are solely to procrastinate awkward issues and a sign saying “we are doing something” about awkward issues.They invariably include a perk such as a holiday for the members and are dismissed out of hand by government
In the language of diplomacy, there are quite amazingly so many ways to say fuck off.
Moving on = do you like sex and travel?.
A comment that is the pitts surely
William the younger or William the elder?.
Now , you’re blameshifting.
Go forth and multiply…
(but he came fifth and lost his beer money)
good morning sir , i fear the modds have it in for me again
I wish you a good second of Ides, sir.
More monikers = more visitors (to those who seek to drіve consumer behaviour.)
Socialist Select Committee input had little or nothing to do with the state of education. Poor attempt to play the man and not the ball.
Always pleasant to the ear to view / listen to an intelligent politician like Gove speaking the Queen’s English.
When Dave ‘retires’, Gove must stand a good chance of taking over the reins.
The Governator cannot be stopped, ever.
No chance. He has a radio face.
“Gove roasted alive by Select Committee, signally failing to answer simultaneous lines of questioning, at best flailing like a fish out of water.”
There, our friends in labour HQ, rescued it fo you.
It’s what we do.
‘moving on’ to Tasmania would be one such move. Or Namibia, or Mars.
Look forward to Toby Helm writing about this in the Not Very Observant.
What about Lord Ahmed ? The arrogance of that odious man.
I say you there Cardinal Sin ,First thing you can do is order me a huge carpet to sweep all the sexual abuse crimes under
PML – P*ssing myself laughing!
Piss poor NuLab can’t even put a wanker in his place.
Roll on regime change.
Blimey, ‘pp’ (per procurationem) used correctly!
Our Civil Service insists on a classical education.
The important thing to remember is that when a Spad writes to the newspapers that is private correspondence and none of the plebs’ business. If the Department feels you need to know something they will tell you.
A beautiful putdown. I didn’t think he had it in him. Way to go, Govey Baby.
Every time I see Michael Gove slapping with these idiots down, I like him a little bit more.
+ 1 MILLION
I can snigger better than Owen Jones or anyone in the media.
