MADRID, September 4 (EUROPA PRESS) –

The British Education Minister, Gillian Keegan, was caught on camera lamenting that no one congratulated her on her “good work” in the crisis caused by the closure of education centers and, on the other hand, there were people who were “not arrogant”.

“Is anyone going to tell me ‘you’ve done a very good job’ because everyone is not giving up? No sign of this, is there?” he said, in a statement taken immediately after granting the permit. interview to the ITV network, while cameras were recording and microphones were still on.

The school year started in the UK in highly controversial fashion, with more than a hundred educational centers warned of the possibility of a type of concrete (RAAC) that was used until the mid-nineties and whose stability is now in doubt.

The lack of information on this subject has led to criticism of the Government, which through several senior officials, including Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, has defended the move. Sunak this Monday denied that he could be blamed for cutting reform funding during his tenure at the Ministry of Finance.

Meanwhile, Keegan, who is due to appear before the House of Commons on the issue, stressed in an interview with ITV that “it is not the Ministry of Education’s job” to oversee school security, as this is within the purview of local authorities and academic foundations.
