Beyonce rings the alarm for somnolent Gove

BEYONCE’S music earned Michael Gove a “stern reprimand” from the Prime Minister, the Chief Whip’s wife revealed yesterday.

Westminster has been rife with speculation about the former education secretary’s musical taste following reports his phone’s ring tone had interrupted a Cabinet meeting.

But Mr Gove’s wife, Sarah Vine, revealed it was actually a high-tech smart watch that caused the disruption.

As Chancellor George Osborne was “explaining a particularly complex piece of fiscal policy,” Mr Gove “mistakenly instructed his watch to play Beyonce’s latest oeuvre,” she said.
