There is a slap Michael Gove game on the internet, and it’s very popular. All you have to do is slap him in the face. I must admit I was tempted when I read his synthetically pious toss about how he had felt forced to stand as leader, deep sense of regret, false humility leaking out of every pore. I always liked Michael, but he has not behaved terribly well, has he? And now he’s going to lose, heavily.
Meanwhile, students are saying they are “too depressed” to take their exams because of the Brexit vote. And – for those of you who are collecting whining Remain idiocies – howzabout this. My wife was asked by another parent at school how she had voted. “Leave,” she replied. Cue and aghast expression and: “But you’re a MOTHER!”
