Douglas Hurd attacks Michael Gove as "backward-looking" in tomorrow's Observer.
But we should not forget that Douglas Hurd was part of the Major government - the second most incompetent government we have had in post-war times (the most incompetent being Callaghan's, the third most incompetent being Brown's).
It's not as if Douglas Hurd is speaking as a "grandee" looking back on his glittering career.
There was no glittering career under Major, only ignominy and failure.
Douglas Hurd is not a has-been, he's a never-was.
A bit more silence please Mr Hurd.
