Having done the training in this, I would say he’s had something, it might be some medication mind.

[MisterMuncher]

It's not like it's the first time he's appeared visibly fucked up in public, though.

A wee quarter line takes the edge off ahead of an interview.

Hence why I was thinking medication.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

With his history of 'parties'?

[Watchman]

I also read, around the same time, that Lady Macbeth was packing up the family home, so I guess the “emotion” got to him!

Gove has announced he is backing Sunak, that Truss is "taking a holiday from reality" and that he is retiring from frontline politics.

Gove was never really frontline politics.
Closest he got was education, which brought us Young, Cummings and Birbalsingh.

More of a backroom operator, flitting between toxic spads and thinktanks.
Occasionally holding a mostly titular post.

He will hand about like a bad fart, meddling in the darker corridors of power.

Firmly on the money as she takes a staycation in Stupid..

Given the article appeared in the Times I think it is only a matter of time before he ends up returning to the paper as a columnist. You can't expect him to support an ex-wife and a coke habit on an MP's salary.

People seemed to think Gove was playing some clever game by backing Badenoch, which would enable him to negotiate a top job with the winner. He's managed to get himself no job with the bloke who isn't going to win anyway.

Not quite the 3d Chess player he imagines himself to be.

The only sad takeaway is that the centre ground of the Conservatives has swept way beyond the nu-Right that Gove embodied.

He's not after a job, he knows Sunak won't win, he's putting the "I told you so" quote out there to refer back to when he needs to demonstrate he was on the right side of history.

From a distance, it's easy to confuse genius and luck.

Gove’s housing stuff is really good but yeah Bad Enoch will demonstrate how absolutely poor his judgement is sometimes.

[Youngian]

So Gove’s forsaking this train wreck he was an architect of to reinvent himself as Honest Mike who’ll pick up the pieces. Loathsome louse.

That's about the size of it I reckon. I suspect we'll see more and more Vote Leavers frantically scrubbing their hands of Brexit as it's toxicity increases over the next year or so.

Not much different from David Frost by the looks of things, still having the gall to lecture on how things should be dealt with regarding Brexit among other things yet is one of the leading architects in setting the way on how the UK is handling it right now.

Edit: WRT Gove, he can somewhat say that he stayed away from the coalface of Brexit, but he should be never made to forget his "...sick & tired of experts" quip he made prior to the referendum.

The closing quotes in every Laura / BBC analysis also smacked heavily of Goves influence.
You'll recall the stuff

Over one hundred eminent economists have warned about the impact of brexit on industry X.

A vote leave spokesman responded saying "I don't accept that".

He's only 54. I can't believe he's prepared to give up yet. If he doesn't get a job right in there this time, big likelihood that he's looking at opposition before he gets another chance.

His selection of Badenoch as first choice may not look like the call of a wise old fox once she's in government. She's tipped for Education. Kemi's David Brent approach "The bad news is your school is laying off teachers, but the good news is I've stuck it trans kids" may not be all that popular.
