Gove Reveals The Depth Of His Ignorance.


Michael Gove has spent the day in front of the Commons Education Select Committee demonstrating his credentials as Education Secretary. Speaking about the teachers and parents who have objected to his plans to forcibly turn Downhills Primary School into one of his much vaunted acadamies, he described them as "Trots." Presumably Mr.Gove was referring to the theory of Marxism advocated by Leon Trotsky that called for an emancipation of ordinary working people from unaccountable bureaucracy. This, apparently, is at total varience with his own plans to free teachers and parents from an unaccountable bureaucracy. Unable to find a good reason to listen to the wishes of teachers and parents Mr.Gove did the only thing he could - insulting those who disagree with him by accusing them of being the worst kind of people he could think of. It is natural for a Tory to regard all forms of socialism with distaste but to label concerned teachers and parents as "Trots" merely served to demonstrate the true depths of his ignorance and his total unsuitability for the post of Education Secretary. Tories are by nature moronic, substituting knee-jerk reaction for reasoned thought and elevating their prejudices to the level of policy, but Mr.Goves appetite for revealing his sheer stupidity in public is second to none even amongst the present crop of Tory idiots. In fact his only real rivals are Ian Duncan Smith, who seems to believe that his campaign against the poor, vulnerable and sick makes him an outstanding Christian, and George Osborne, who seems to believe that destroying the British economy makes him a good Chancellor of the Exchequer. Only those contestants who insist upon appearing on "Britain's Got Talent" without the benefit of any discernable talent even approach their delusional state.

  1. Michael Gove is truly a man of no small talent or indeed any discernible talent at all.
