My money's been on Gove from day one. He seems such a really nice guy.
What makes me chuckle when I think about it is that Boris was most likely Remain and went away to "agonize" with his conscience and in the end decided it was in his best - sorry his country's best - interests to go Leave. He had been leading Dave to believe he was a Remainer but instead told Dave he was backing Leave a couple of minutes before he went public. That caught Dave and his team on the hop and sealed the dislike for Boris from Dave's side.
Fast forward and Boris has been let down and back stabbed by his "best ally". Wonder how he feels about that sort of dastardly action?

Do you mind if I "borrow" this as it's probably the most honest thing any of us has heard in a month?
Not at all. I "borrowed" it from a mate on Facebook.

Excellent - most would say bullshit however after the week we have had were he to win a landslide it could barely be more surprising than whats happened.

I am starting to believe this is his aim. To prove his side of the argument was right over this, to denounce Bliar and Straw publicly and to maybe see if it helps ease pressure on him as he was anti-war himself.

It's being said that Gove's plan was to convince Boris to support Leave as he has/had the appeal to all levels of society and the ability to convince the hard of thinking that Leave was in their best interests. Gove himself is stiff and stuffy and looks odd on camera, despite probably being the brightest of this bunch of Tories.
The plot worked a treat, and Boris convinced enough people with his lies and fuzzy plans for the future. However, Gove's plan wasn't complete until he announced he was running. First the 'leaked' email from his wife to soften Boris up, then Gove stuck the knife, and the boot, in by announcing he was a candidate for leadership. Boris was done in by what they're calling 'the cuckoo in the nest' plot.
What Gove hadn't factored in was a lot of Tories are horrified by his duplicity and are likely to get behind May. Gove's boss Murdoch will be pissed off his man won't be in No. 10, but he has his Brexit wish. Wouldn't surprise me if it was Murdoch's plan all along.
I wonder if Corbyn will be observing the Somme anniversary? Doubtful, he's probably defending his antisemitic pals.
I believe he attended a ceremony yesterday.

He's there now apparently, he's probably hating every moment the scruffy get.

I know Gove is Scottish but I'm sure he didn't have this Scottish accent yesterday or any other day that I have heard him speak.

I never did particularly like Gordon Brown but he was an intellectual giant when placed amongst this lot we have now. He should for the sake of the country come back now.

Osborne now abandoned his goal (which he was unlikely to achieve anyway) of eliminating the budget deficit by 2020.

and if you wrote that as a plot for a political thriller before yesterday that would be thought unbelievable !!! Now its just a statement of fact.

Its a bit like Dave at PMQ's - not his problem... speak to the next fella in this seat... both benefit from a get out of jail free card as a result of losing. some comfort for them.
