That'll be Michael Gove, then.
Given Education in order to keep him away from the foreign policy brief in which his swivel-eyed lunacy would have made him the world's greatest threat to global peace and stability since the end of the Bush Administration. But evidently just as capable of raising merry hell there, too.
The Government is in a bind. It can hardly sack two million people, and in any case such is the nature of many of the jobs that it could not fill them with anyone apart from the people currently in them. Those people can just keep striking until they get what they want. So they will: they will keep on striking, and they will get what they want.
Like riots, there are always strikes of this kind under what the Conservative Party has become since the daughter of a Victorian Liberal became its Leader. The trick is to keep that party out of office. Then there are neither riots nor strikes. It is the riot and strike-inciting party created by Margaret Thatcher, and no one embodies it more perfectly than Michael Gove.
