Michael Gove : (3) " There is a slam-dunk case for extending foreign language teaching to children aged five. Just as some people have taken a perverse pride in not understanding mathematics, so we have taken a perverse pride in the fact that we do not speak foreign languages, and we just need to speak louder in English. " - Michael Gove " We have, in the E.U., a market rigged in favour of the rich and stacked against the poor, and I think that’s wrong. " - Michael Gove " There are all sorts of people who will say disobliging things about me. I don’t mind that. I would rather people said, ‘This is a man that sticks to his principles, not a man who’s worried about popularity.’ " - Michael Gove
