Michael Gove has no understanding of the real world

[pauln1964]

Those of us involved in education have known this fact for some while.

The rest of the world will be coming to that realisation very quickly on hearing of his proposal to give the Queen a £60m+ yacht for the jubilee this year. I'm also not surprised that Willetts, his co-conspirator in damaging education for a generation is co-conspirator in this as well.

That £60m by the way was the estimate of Britannia's value when de-commissioned 15 years ago.

Maybe the queen could tell him to sod off...or get Phil to do it ?

That's almost word for word what a commentator said last night (almost).

He also suggested that Gove may have taken leave of his senses (although that suggests he had any in the first place).

He did always strike me as a tinay bit whiny.

Few things in the World make me yearn for the days of Spitting Image, quite like Michael Gove. I only have to hear his name to taste bile rising.

On the theme of Spitting Image today we also have Boris (who'd make a great puppet) getting to play at being a Policeman...can't wait to those of us outside of London get to share that fun.

Boris is already a character from Sesame Street isn't he? He certainly seems to have one of Jim Henson's crew for a hair stylist!

And Gove and Willetts are supposed to be the clever ones in the cabinet!
