A summary of the #AskGove tweets

In January, the Education Committee solicited the public for questions to ask UK Education Secretary Michael Gove. The key: You had to tweet the question using the hashtag #AskGove. Here's a summary of the tweets.

  1. Here's a YouTube video of Gove answering some of the #AskGove questions.

  6. Bloody hell, the parliamentary select committee is asking Gove Twitter users' questions from the #askGove hashtag!
