What did Education Secretary Gillian Keegan do?

In an interview with ITV today, Gillian Keegan discussed the ongoing school concrete crisis. Some schools in the UK have been forced shut amid fears that dangerous concrete used to build them could lead to a structural collapse.

Following the interview, which faced some challenging questions, Keegan let loose a foul-mouthed tirade.

“Does anyone ever say, ‘You know what, you’ve done a [bleeping] good job because everyone else has sat on their [bleep] and done nothing?’ No signs of that, no?” she asked.

It’s unknown who Keegan was referring to when she swore. She has since apologised for her “off the cuff” remark.
