What price Nick Gibb as the next education secretary?

If Nick Gibb were elevated to the cabinet, or even remained as schools minister, traditionalists would be very relieved.OK, OK, OK. This is a bit of a stretch, but as the political machinations play out in Westminster, what price arch-traditionalist Nick Gibb being appointed education secretary?A number of different, and independent, events need to happen first, but none are hugely unlikely in and of themselves. In narrative order they are: Theresa May is forced to stand down; Michael Gove becomes prime minister; Michael Gove appoints Nick Gibb, who is currently schools minister, as education secretary.Obviously, the odds on both May going and then Gove winning the leadership are reasonably long (he is currently third favourite at 7-1), but wouldn't it make sense if Gove were to win for him appoint his former Department for Education sidekick to the top job?After all, Gibb is loyal, reliable, unambitious (beyond education) and an unparalleled supporter and protector of Gove's legacy as education secretary. Indeed, it is said that when Gove agreed to his shock move out of the DfE in 2014, he insisted that Gibb should be schools minister for all these reasons.
