Michael Gove To Become New Justice Secretary

Michael Gove has been brought back to a frontline Cabinet role to oversee controversial Conservative plans to scrap the Human Rights Act. The former chief whip has been appointed as Justice Secretary – where plans will be drawn up to replace the European legislation with a British bill of rights. He was called into Downing Street by David Cameron yesterday and told that his new role was crucial because it would involve another key policy – English Votes for English Laws. Nicky Morgan was told that she would remain at the Department for Education.
