She dodged face to face interviews and instead made an Oscar Style video about the Cons Crumbling Concrete crisis. The three minute clip with background music was posted on YouTube. Where is the education secretary ? Asks the Media. we don't want slick videos we want to interview her..... It seems Sunak and his Cons didn't think she could handle the crisis . Another Con Coward

I'm not sure that facing the Mucky Media is necessarily a vital requirement for a Ministerial Post.

// Gillian Keegan has come under fire for posting a video with a dance music soundtrack about the crumbling concrete crisis in schools rather than facing media interviews.

The Education Secretary has not made a public appearance since the scandal emerged that dozens of schools may have to be closed because of a risky type of concrete used in their construction.

On Sunday morning it was Jeremy Hunt, the Chancellor, who was put in front of the cameras instead.

His appearance apparently followed concern among senior Tories that her decision to tell parents last week that there was nothing to worry about had not gone well.

On Sunday, one prominent Conservative said that the video proved she had been “overpromoted”.

Ms Keegan’s three-minute clip, which has a dance music soundtrack, was posted on YouTube, and the Education Secretary posted a link to it.

In it, she admitted that “some buildings may pose a threat to safety”, but insisted the Government was doing all it could to solve the problem.

Her decision was criticised by Piers Morgan, the former editor of the Daily Mirror, who said: “Where is the Education Secretary?

“She’s putting out these Oscars-style videos – sorry, that’s not your job. I don’t want slick videos. I want the Education Secretary to be held to account.” //

A poor show from a demoralised Government on its last legs.

Apparently she spent £32 million refurbishing her offices – which she claims to know nothing about.

She thinks she has done a good job, and is annoyed that no one has thanked her. Talk about out of touch :-)

Jesus wept, take a day off!

Tell the truth, when you saw her name, did you say ‘ Who’?
When she appeared on tv , did you say ‘ Who ‘ ?

meanwhile, having been called out by a senior civil servant for cutting the RAAC repair budget by 50%, Rishi pulls the Shaggy Defence.
