One of the inner circle of Team Cameron.

Great asset to the team, knowlegable, witty and his articles always make a good read - it shows that there is more to his life than politics Smiley He's an 'old school' politician. And he's Scottish Smiley

Surrey is indeed an English county. However Michael Gove still represents them; he was born in Edinburgh and was adopted and lived in Aberdeen IIRC. There are many Scottish born MP's holding seats in England it's not really considered unusual.

I guess. Sucks for Surrey natives though.

I'm glad we don't do things here that way. At least we require politicians to have to own property where they represent.
