Michael Gove taking “running for PM” literally is an uncomfortable watch – the only 9 reactions you need
As Theresa May has promised to stand down before the trade deal phase of Brexit, many in her party are gearing up for the race to the top spot – Boris Johnson has had a haircut, Jeremy Hunt has turned on the smarm offensive to secure backing, and Michael Gove, well …he’s done this:

He may have misunderstood the concept of a title race, but whatever his reason for that awkward footage, Twitter has had a hard time coping with it.

This is what is called a picture opportunity of the kind you see in a leadership campaign. It seems distasteful even for Gove to go in for this when Mrs May's body is still warm. https://t.co/t8qNhh2ugf

Michael Gove jogs like two disjointed buttocks in an unstable tumble dryer. https://t.co/eLKVJZAgtA

Why do Tories always have to get on a bike or how jogging when they want to become a leader? To anyone normal doesn't make them look any more normal https://t.co/YF6QPTrpqW

That's a man who has never in his life run before trying to look fit and prime ministerial, and failing pathetically.

Did he misunderstand when his wife told him he should run for the Tory Leadership…?

Comedian, Tiernan Douieb, had some positive words for Michael Gove’s leadership chances – and some negative ones.
Michael Gove would make a great Caretaker Prime Minister. But mainly because he looks like he’s wearing a rubber mask and would chase kids around a playground until thwarted by a talking dog.
