There hasn't been a credible voice of the UK left since before Neil Kinnock began the whole New Labour makeover, which in turn degraded into the image-politics of middle class Tony Blair & now have left a @labour party languishing in the shame & impotence of infighting.
The present situation is dire. The classic pull between principles & electability. Corbyn principles are spot on, but he's undermined by the reimaged middle of his party, whose ambitions to remain relevant far exceed their desire to implement the vision of their founders.
In the meantime, Gove becomes the #Brexit saviour of the Tory Party by being the only one close to step into the shoes of #borisjohnson who he's just deposed with a leaked email from his wife, a few harsh words about his former faction-leader's competence to lead anything more than a railway service, & a hasty throw of his hat in the ring for the Leadership.
My guess is he's been put up to advocate Theresa May as the test subject for the "Thatcher 2.0" initiative, in which we see them try to fob one of the few qualified #VoteRemain PMs they have on us, with Gove as the #Brexit man that can push the button on article 50 without being a real leader of the 5th largest world economy, and the only nation of 28 to ever tell the EU where to shove its evil empire.
