By Matt Chorley, Mailonline Political Editor Michael Gove's week is going from bad to worse. First he was dumped from the Cabinet as Education Secretary, then he lost his first vote in his new role as government Chief Whip. Now it has emerged he became trapped in a toilet in the Houses of Parliament and nearly missed another key vote in the Commons. Michael Gove was ousted as Education Secretary in the reshuffle, to the delight of teaching unions, but his new job as Chief Whip does not seem to be going according to plan Mr Gove’s sudden departure from the Department for Education was one of the big shocks of the reshuffle, in which Mr Cameron promoted several women and Eurosceptics.
