Rejected petition Michael Gove should resign or be removed from his post

More details

In light of Mr. Gove's recent letter in which he suggested £60 million of taxpayer money be used to purchase a Royal Yacht, we the undersigned call for his replacement as Secretary of State for Education as this shows a severe level of incompetence and just plain stupidity when taken into account the amount of cuts to public expenditure that have been made in order to get the economy back on track.
