The Michael Gove File

[teqniq]

Michael Gove is the Mekon.

 

[stavros]

He didn't answer the question about being against grammar schools, I noticed.

 

[stavros]

If it is bad, then banning it is a good thing.

Yet he's back in the cabinet.

UK 'to keep more of its fish', Michael Gove says.

Slippery, cold-blooded, existing in a extremely dark world and with many natural predators, Michael Gove is 50.

Said it before and will say it again. Your arm would never get tired.

i hate to say this, so take it with a pinch of sea salt, but without the EU meddling, we might not have had as many fish to take back. just saying like.

Michael Gove: Let homeowners take home reusable rubbish found at council dumps

Gove seeks the right of 'homeowners' to scavenge tips. Glorious.

Is this a euphemism for extending Right to Buy ?

 

[Ground Elder]

Is this to be just a perk for hard working homeowners, or can us housing association scum join in?

Michael Gove: Let homeowners take home reusable rubbish found at council dumps

Gove seeks the right of 'homeowners' to scavenge tips. Glorious.

Tbh he does have a point, some councils are proper nazi about people taking things from tips, whereas others have ‘tip shops’ run by volunteer or commercial organisations to pass on reusable items. I’ve known of someone prosecuted for taking something home (a worker at a site rather than a user). People do take perfectly good (and sometimes unused) items to tips.

When I was renting a house once our cooker didn’t have a grill pan. I scavenged a knackered one from a skip or somewhere that was a different model and didn’t fit very well (almost useless). Spotted the same model cooker as ours at the tip once and tried to nab the grill pan which would have been very useful but they wouldn’t let me take it even with the reasonable offer of swapping for the one I had at home. Seemed a bit stupid and jobsworth.

 

[Ground Elder]

When I was renting

You didn't own your home and you still expected to help yourself from the tip

Is this actually a sensible proposal (the first ever?) from Gove? We used to scavenge all sorts from the dump, but the company contracted by the Council put a stop to it around a decade ago. I'd happily take stuff to the tip, knowing that someone else would find a use for it.

Given when it dates from, it's not that bad. I've very few photos of Gove since he came to the political fore where he doesn't look like his own Spitting Image puppet.

I remember sometime in 2017 laughing at Gove, no longer in governement, hiding from the wife in wetherpsoons with all the other old men, being interrupted by a skype call from Channel 4 news. A few weeks later he was Minister for the Environement. Cunt.

I hear repeated references to his talents. I suspect one of them is keeping them well hidden.

 

[brogdale]

Well ?...this has got to get the psychopath's juices flowing...straight in as PM; no messing.

 

[Poi E]

Frightening man. His ability to dispatch thousands to their deaths would be without peer.

edit: doh, Tory, done it already.

Didn't know Tony Blair was back in his good books.

Don't know if anyone's posted this yet. Check this out for pure lies and hypocrisy. The man himself...

Oooh...edgy



He obviously got one of those calls inviting him to pen a 'confessional'

 

[Proper Tidy]

Imagine Michael Gove coked up, all extra animated and that. Fucks sake

the article itself is hilarious - apparently he did it before he ever thought of a career in politics*

* ie: several years after he'd applied to join the Conservative Research Department and wrote speeches for senior Tory MPs

Gotta wonder what he’ll unleash in revenge against TCJ now
