BREAKING: Result of second round of Tory leadership ballot: Theresa May - 199; Michael Gove - 46; Andrea Leadsom - 84.

It seems Michael Gove's decision to run & his perceived knifing of Boris Johnson was a political misjudgement...only 46 votes in final round

Disappointing result. I was hoping Michael Gove would drop out voluntarily so that I could say he'd stabbed himself in the back

Can we all just take a moment out of our busy working day to laugh heartily at Michael Gove?

Michael Gove just now: 'I want to continue working for the dispossessed and powerless.'
That's YOU, sunshine.
