Ray Gin Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Not to be outdone by Janey Godley, Michael Gove is the latest public figure in the spotlight: https://www.heraldscotland.com/politics/19577906.recordings-reveal-string-apparent-sexist-racist-slurs-young-michael-gove/ "MICHAEL Gove made racist and sexist remarks and joked about paedophilia, new recordings appear to show." "In one speech, the minister described Prince Charles as a “dull, wet, drippy adulterer” while in another he called people whose countries had been colonies by Britain “fuzzy wuzzies”. He accused former Tory minister Leon Brittan of being a paedophile, and made sexual innuendos about Conservative minister Lucy Frazer." "The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster described Margaret Thatcher’s policies as a “new empire” where “the happy south stamps over the cruel, dirty, toothless face of the northerner” and said gay people “thrive primarily upon short-term relations”.

One's a government minister, one's a comedian. You surely can't he daft enough to compare the two can you?

I P Knightley Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 11 hours ago, Jamstomorrow said: Is a 'super injunction' better than a mundane, run-of-the-mill injunction? It's like a normal injunction (preventing publication of a news story - presumably one that's verifiable, otherwise the libel laws would apply) but it comes attached with an injunction that prevents anyone from revealing that the first injunction exists. As far as I can work out, though, people often get wind of there being a superinjunction and word of that can spread, albeit not through the mainstream media. On the story, I have to say I'm surprised to learn that Michael Gove was as odious in his twenties as he is now. He reminds me (always has) of a Young Conservative when I was at Uni who frequently spoke in student debates about the "values" of Conservatism (this was in Thatcher's time) with overt racist, mysoginistic and homophobic lines. That young conservative was hiding the fact that he is gay - many knew it as, after a few drinks, he'd come on to other chaps. He may still be hiding it or, now that he's in his 50s (if still alive), he may becoming true to himself and leaving his 'beard' wife and setting up home in a same sex relationship with someone much younger than he is. I never kept track. I wonder who's behind the leak? * Carrie Symonds? Johnson's poll lead is finally slipping and Gove has always been a threat to his leadership (though Sunak's still more likely). * Sarah Vine ("Mrs Gove") whose Mail articles over the year have shown her to be a heartless whatnot and ever so likely to go bunny boiler when scorned by her man? * Gove himself thinking that if Johnson can get away with "picaninnies", "tank-topped bum boys"; "hook-nosed Arabs"; "letterboxes" and so much more while getting stupidly high ratings, why shouldn't he have a similar go? I suspect that the conservative party heid yins have a little portfolio on each MP and prospective MP and use it to keep a tight leash. The trouble is that these revelations show Gove to be no worse than the party leader so why should he feel the need to walk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Gin Posted September 14, 2021 Author Share Posted September 14, 2021 During one speech in 1987, Mr Gove said: ‘It may be moral to keep an empire because the fuzzy-wuzzies can’t look after themselves.’ He added that Eton College, where the Prime Minister was educated, took the ‘cream of the colonial system’ and turned ‘fettered foreigners’ into ‘gentlemen’.
