Gurning Gove is living his Bezt life

Millions have watched Michael Gove’s performance on BBC Breakfast. This is because he spluttered a wonderful collection of unconnected words, sprinkled with an array of strange voices and a semi-dance.

Interviewer Dan Walker asked afterwards if Gove was OK.

But he’s fine. He has always wanted to be an entertainer and now he’s like Bez from the Happy Mondays, playing his part in the band by dancing in a dream world and making the odd random noise.

Rishi Sunak will discuss targets for inflation while behind him, Michael will twirl and gyrate, shaking maracas, saying “wicked” and smiling at the numbers – believing that each one is a pixie.
