HM Government Education secretary has been recorded on camera suggesting others "have been sat on their a***s" over the school Raac crisis, while saying the government should be thanked for their response. As part of a morning round of interviews, Gillian Keegan was speaking to ITV News as it was confirmed there could potentially be hundreds more schools affected by the crisis. In the moments after the main body of the interview had finished, and as the camera repositioned for extra shots, Keegan - still wearing her microphone - criticised others and claimed the government has gone "over and above" in addressing concerns relating to reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (Raac). "Does anyone ever say, you know what, you've done a f***ing good job because everyone else has sat on their a**** and done nothing, " Ms Keegan said. She added: "Any sign of that, no?" The Education Secretary was forced to apologise today, after an extraordinary foul-mouthed outburst to ITV News, Dan Hewitt reports More at https://www.itv.com/news/2023-09-04/keegan-recorded-saying-others-have-been-sat-on-their-as-on-raac-crisis
