    Michael Gove should know better!

    Of course Tories are unreformed. If the were reformed, most of them would be LibDems, wouldn’t they?

    And most Tories tend to be happy, not grumpy. See all the current academic research showing “conservatives tend to be happier than liberals”. Those I know grumble; but in a happy, traditional, non-grumpy way.
