One of reasons I was able to go to university was because of the sacrifices my family made.
Michael Gove
Image
I'll negotiate with toughness, and with great attention to detail to get the best possible deal for Britain. It's only when we are outside the European Union that we can at last bring those numbers [of migrants] under control in the way that the public want.

Our most important public service will always be the NHS. And I want to say something clear and unambiguous about the future of the health service.
Michael Gove
Image
I will do everything that is required in order to bring immigration down to a level that is manageable, that the public believe is right.

As long as there are people in education making excuses for failure, cursing future generations with a culture of low expectations, denying children access to the best that has been thought and written, because Nemo and the Mister Men are more relevant, the battle needs to be joined.

You come home to find your 17-year-old daughter engrossed in a book. Which would delight you more - if it were 'Twilight' or 'Middlemarch?'
