British education secretary Gillian Keegan was caught on camera Monday swearing about a lack of appreciation for the handling of a crisis with crumbling concrete in schools.
"Does anyone ever say, 'You know what, you've done a f***ing good job' because everyone else has sat on their a***s and done nothing?" Keegan said when her interview with ITV concluded and she was removing her microphone."No signs of that, no?"When Keegan was caught swearing, she was referring to a problem with a type of concrete used in schools, known as reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete, which could lead to structural collapses.

That was unnecessary," she told ITV.
More than 150 schools in the United Kingdom have identified the use of reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete, according to the BBC. Many of those schools have either shut down the buildings or the classrooms in response to the hazardous concrete, forcing students into remote learning at the start of the school term.
