Would appear most of the Tory leadership contenders were...

as usual the pundits,journo,s missing the real story here
the odious,backstabbing,vile creature that's is gove must have a motive here,the ultimate game player,game of thrones,political dark arts,no way is this about admitting to something which is  more of a right of passage In the tory party
in their eyes its all about boris  v gove
so gove knowing all the other candidates will now be interrogated no,s something we don't, boris already fessed up in past, but maybe he,s a current drug user and if he doesn't come cleanm gove will question his integrity, honesty,
more likely imo,gove has cleared the decks of his skeltons and is going to throw a huge hand grenade with boris,s name on it into the leadership race
usually sexually related with tory,s but could be money or even evidence boris has really been a remainer all along,could even be the same reason gove said he was unfit to be leader last time and boris retreated from the eton fields so gove didn't have to say why
been the ultimate game player give will have informed boris team of his intentions so I predict a telegraph front page of boris admitting to something big or more likely boris once more head bowed trooping of the eton field
gove will once again be the one putting the knife in so its basically a joint suicide ,gove deciding if its not me fair enough but its not going to be boris, so if you have a strong 3rd fav get on or lay the top 2
thank me later

gove said boris wasn't fit  to be PM 3 years made a complete car crash of foreign sec since then and gove thinks  no deal would be bad for the country,gove could hardly sit in a boris led cabinet, so if he doesn't at least stop boris getting job even if he has to sacrifice himself,goves finished anyway,where as he could have a top job in a hunt,javed cabinet
