Tory education secretary Gillian Keegan asks ITV cameras, thinking recording has stopped: “Does anyone ever say: do you know what, you’ve done a fucking good job?”
No. But when Socialist Party members campaign in working-class communities, there are plenty of other ruder expletives reserved for the Tories. And plenty of ordinary people telling us about what a good job teachers, NHS staff and others do, and how they deserve a decent pay rise.
Keegan ends her rant: “Because everyone else has sat on their arse and done nothing – no signs of that no?”
For a start, school staff working all weekend to deal with the RAAC crisis, and parents scrambling to find last-minute childcare, have been busy enough! But it is highly likely that jab is aimed at her Tory Party colleagues. Like our public services and buildings, the Conservative Party is falling apart too.
