How much longer are these findings of dodgy behaviour by Gove's SpAds going to go on before either Gove gets a grip of them or Dave gets a grip on Gove?

And what about ministers being accountable for their spads behaviour and hiring
Yesterdays interrogation by the four Labour MP's was deliciously embarrassing - for them, not Gove. This was a priceless moment...
An email from special adviser Dominic Cummings suggesting a journalist suffered from mental health problems may well have breached rules on negative briefings.
It was down to Sefton Central MP Bill Esterson to raise the issue, but he gave Gove room to escape by claiming that Indy hack Richard Garner was a Whitehall staffer. The exchange was excruciating:
Gove: That was not an email which was sent to a permanent civil servant
Esterson: Yes it was
Gove: Who?
Esterson: It was sent to a member of staff, Richard Garner
Gove: Richard Garner is the education editor of the Independent, not a permanent civil servant

'But the Department for Education settled the case with a reported £25,000 pay-out before it got to an open court hearing.'
Course Gove knew nothing abosolutely nowt!
Is it up to him to order the pencils as well, do you think?
No one told him his advisors have gone and his department paid of bullying claims
Maybe he's been wandering round saying where are my advisors has anyone seen them?
Didn't he notice his advisors were't turning up for work
Sounds like BS to me
Honestly I have no idea what Gove does he doesn't know his advisors are gone, was on the news last night his policy is a mess
What exactly does he do? maybe put him on tea duty
And what about ministers being accountable for their spads behaviour and hiring
Yeah like Jeremy Hunt was
Exactly!
I know. Either he is lying or incompetent.
