To wonder if anyone else thinks Mr Gove is a disgrace

[marriedinwhiteisback]

For ranting at and calling all those in the party who voted against Syria a disgrace. Go Justine (well she didn't know the vote was on ROFL), Hammond, Clarke and many others (BOWS).

Dons flak jacket but doesn't give a hoot.

He is a disgrace for that and for lots of other reasons too. YANBU.

Needs to be pilloried. I will drive his head onto the pike myself.

Hes should have been chased out years ago-why are we paying for people like him

Yanbu but he was a disgrace long before this rant.

Probably thinks they're a disgrace for going against a three line whip.

They're going to have to pay for that.

YANBU and his wife with her stupid twitter comments. But generally he is awful, not just in relation to this

Mr.Gove brings me out in hives, the weasly faced little jumped up freak show. He is the first person on my rocket into the sun.

I know a whole staff of people who think he's a disgrace, but that is more with regards to his attempts to destroy state education and the life chances of young people.

With regards to voting against the party whip, that is damaging to the party so he has a right to be annoyed but in all honesty the Conservatives knew they didn't have the support of enough of their own MPs/Lib Dems to get it through so didn't really even try to make the case for intervention. Cameron would rather accuse Miliband of playing politics (what, a politician? Never!) than actually engage with the issue at a deeper level.

He's an annoying little prick. YANBU

He is a disgrace for what he has done to education never mind anything else. Never have I hated a politician so much.

My sentiments exactly!

He is an idiot who thinks he knows better than anyone else irrespective of how much research or evidence they may have.

Cut from the same cloth as George Osbourne IMO

He is a disgrace for what he has done, and continuing to do, to the education system. I wish that he would get given the sack but I can't see it somehow.

He's angling for the leadership and I've heard tell he has a fair bit of support amongst the 'anyone but Boris' contingent.

The idea of Gove as PM is terrifying.

GrumpyKat, I couldn't have put it better myself.
I've yet to meet anybody who agrees with what he is doing.

I love him.
Best thing that has happened in British education in decades.

moondog why? really, why?

(resisting the temptation to be sceptical)

Yes moondog. Tell me, are your DC actually subjected to the English education system under Gove?

I said at a BBQ the other day that the only reason I wish I lived a few miles from where I do is so I could vote against him in the next election.

I love you. Marvellous man. Fight you for him Moondog.

I hate him, too. But this always cheers me up:

The thought of him as PM is horrifying.

The fact he is in charge of education when he knows nothing about it and does not care enough to learn about it is bloody awful enough.

littlemisswise "He is an idiot who thinks he knows better than anyone else irrespective of how much research or evidence they may have."

^ This.

I can understand/forgive many flaws in a politician, but one thing that deeply annoys me is the 'all the evidence points to A, but I've chosen B, so fuck you' camp. Not restricted to any particular political stripe; Tony Blair was a prime example.
