Does the UK Really Need a War Mongering Education Secretary?

By Gove! There Will Be Blood!

Hysterical Education Secretary Michael Gove was so furious that his high priest David Cameron was denied his’ rightful’ opportunity to start a war that he slammed the Tory MPs who voted against intervention in Syria as a ‘disgrace’. 

Gove, who has the sort of face which some unkind critics have suggested wouldn’t look out of place in Heinrich Himmler’s gang of merry Nazi psychopaths, was apparently so livid that fellow Tories through the power of democratic process had denied his party the chance to punish violence with violence and launch a missile strike against Syria that he had to be restrained by colleagues. 

Frothing at the mouth like a steroid crazed Rottweiler, Gove apparently started yelling ‘disgrace’, ‘disgrace’ at the MPs who opposed Cameron’s plans to commit the UK to yet further bloodshed and carnage in the Middle East. 

Labour MP Bary Gardiner revealed to the Daily Mail how Gove (by this point seemingly rendered insane and fearsome with all the terrible rage of a frustrated war pig), started snarling at fellow MPs whilst spitting wild allegations that they were “supporters of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.”

Now while Syria, like many countries, has seen its fair share of horrendous humanitarian atrocities it  is of some concern that the UK’s Education Secretary believes the only way to alleviate such suffering is by a display of brute force and subsequent slaughter. 

If things are so black and white in Gove’s world then God help Britain’s education system. The vast majority of the public in the UK are against military action against Syria because they realise instinctively it will only lead to further death and bloodshed without end. 

You don’t have to be an Education Secretary to work that one out. You just have to be a decent human being capable of seeing that childish and excitable displays which suggest deep-rooted anger management issues do not a true statesman make. Diplomacy and the all-consuming need to reach a peace settlement are the qualities which are parliamentary representatives should possess, not the mindless belief that somehow sending troops of to kill and main whilst being killing and maimed at the slightest provocation is a noble thing.  Reckless and bloodthirsty action  achieves nothing but bitterness and hatred and makes the world a more dangerous place for all.  

Gove’s fury that democracy finally won out in the decision to invade or not invade Syria speaks volumes about the man and a large part of the party he represents. Free-will and independence of thought is not a ‘disgrace’ Mr Gove, but tyranny and fascism in whatever form it takes most definitely is.
