MICHAEL Gove remains manically convinced nothing can stop him becoming Tory leader though nobody knows where he is getting his confidence from.
The environment secretary is resolute he can win and is giving frequent impromptu improvised motivational speeches to his campaign team.
An insider said: “It’s incredible. Honestly, if you could bag up Michael’s self-belief and sell it, you could name your own price.
“Sometimes he flags a little but then he goes to the bathroom, I think to talk to himself in front of the mirror, and he comes out absolutely ebullient.
“He works all hours – he’s always last to bed – and even goes out at 4am for meetings. God knows who with.
“Sunday morning I woke up to him, on the roof, screaming ‘I’m the king of the fucking world!’ to the silent Chelsea streets. He’s just so inspiring.”
The insider added: “And he’s really hands-on. Won’t let anyone else touch the campaign finances.”
