Whilst not wishing to characterise all journalists as low life scum bags,Michael Gove was a journalist before becoming a Tory MP - happy to put most politicians in this category.
Gove has an English degree (one up from a Desmond),has never worked in or studied education.In my opinion, he is not only eminently qualified to give an opinion on the conduct of the reat War,he is also (evidently) a gifted educationalist,huzaaaaah!
