Description

Michael Gove is one of the most recognisable faces in British politics and one of the most divisive. A charming man to his friends, and a cold-blooded zealot to his enemies, Gove is set to play a crucial role in the future of the UK. Barely two years after being banished to the back benches following one of the most brutal leadership bids in British political history, Michael Gove is now playing a key role in delivering Brexit. He is that is that rarest of things in today's politics: a big beast. This is a timely biography of a politician who has had an effect on the shape of British politics more profound that many will openly acknowledge.
