Education Secretary Gillian Keegan has apologised for her"choice language" after she was caught complaining about not being thanked for doing a"f***ing good job" over the unsafe concrete crisis.
Ms Keegan later apologised and admitted she was"frustrated with the interviewer" who was"making out it was all my fault".Gillian Keegan: 'I'd like to apologise for my choice language' Asked repeatedly who she meant had been"sat on their arses", Ms Keegan insisted it was"nobody in particular". She said it is"frustrating" because she and her team have been working hard to deal with the issue of unsafe concrete, and she hasn't slept due to"worrying about this".But Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said it was a"farce" to see a Tory minister"blame anyone but themselves".He added:"Rishi Sunak needs to act, but will he have the strength to act? I doubt it.
Questions remain over the extent of the RAAC emergency, the timing of the government's announcement and how the repairs will be funded.
