Keegan must apologise for her “disgraceful comments”

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Liberal Democrat Education spokesperson, Munira Wilson MP, has called on Gillian Keegan to apologise to the parents affected by the RAAC crisis after comments emerged of her swearing about not being thanked over her work on the concrete schools crisis.

Liberal Democrat Education spokesperson, Munira Wilson MP said:

“Gillian Keegan’s disgraceful comments add insult to injury for parents who’ve seen their children’s return to school ruined by this concrete crisis.

“Expecting people to thank her when children are being taught in classrooms at risk of collapse shows Keegan must be living on another planet.

“The very least Keegan owes parents for her refusal to take responsibility for her shocking handling of this crisis and out of touch comments is an apology. 

“She needs to bring herself before the nation and say sorry to the thousands of parents and children who have had their start to the school year wrecked on her watch.”
