The Education Secretary has been caught on camera complaining that she and the Government weren\u2019t thanked for doing a \u201cf***ing good job\u201d over the RAAC crisis.<\/p>\n
Gillian Keegan has also slammed others who \u201chave been sat on their a***s\u201d over the unsafe concrete in schools across England.<\/p>\n
Keegan was interviewed by ITV News this morning after it was revealed thousands of pupils face disruption this week due to full or partial closes of schools with RAAC concerns.<\/p>\n

Additionally, it has been revealed that around 1,500 more schools in England are yet to be surveyed, meaning the scale of disruption could be significantly higher.<\/p>\n
The 55-year-old made the comments after the main round of interviews was finished, while the ITV cameramen were repositioning for extra shots.<\/p>\n
Keegan, who was still wearing her microphone, began to criticise others before stating the government has gone \u201cover and above\u201d while addressing the RAAC crisis.<\/p>\n
She said: "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?<\/p>\n
"Any sign of that, no?"<\/p>\n
A snippet of the interview was shared on the platform formerly known as Twitter, now X, comparing her outburst to the TV series 'The Thick of It'.<\/p>\n

Fans compared Keegan's outburst to one scene where the character Nicola Murray accidentally leaked data to a journalist walking down the stairs behind her.<\/p>\n
Others compared it to another scene where Sir Humphrey is caught on tape sharing his offhand views on unemployment and fears he may soon find himself with a firsthand view instead.<\/p>\n
During her earlier interview, Keegan insisted that the government had been "really super cautious" in ordering 104 schools across the country to fully or partially shut down.<\/p>\n

She said: "Anything that's not critical, we're going to treat as critical.<\/p>\n
"It's very important that it's done properly, but we're the only ones who've done it\u201d.<\/p>\n
Earlier today (September 4), Rishi Sunak acknowledged hundreds more schools in England could be affected as he faced accusations he failed to fund a programme to replace ageing classrooms while chancellor.<\/p>\n
However, the Prime Minister hit back at the accusations as "completely and utterly wrong".<\/p>\n
