This morning I was listening interview with Nick Gibb the education minister regarding the insane issues with our schools. There were questions that he didn't answer he left us with.

The first was he said, he don't actually know how many schools will have to close completely because of row he still doesn’t have this system speculation in the papers, but he couldn't confirm numbers.

The second question was, he says all schools were safe but yet we still know that not all of those schools have been surveyed tested checked and therefore we don't actually have the data really to know that 100% for sure.

The third was, he say, that we don't know about yet how many will be closed. He didn't really answer on this the third question. He speculated with was "OK they're going to publish that list" but when, he said in "due course" what it could be in the next 3 months however could be also next year or never, we don't know when that information is going to come to light and parents are going to want to know soon as possible if their children are safe.

The fourth question was, he said, that actually not all schools have yet been notified about this issues, the vast majority had but not which schools are still not been notified that potentially their buildings could collapse it's really really serious.

It is appalling to hear the news that more than 100 schools in England will have to close some buildings because of this concrete that looks like it could be liable to collapse.

It is shocking and if you think how angry furious parents are going to be to find out just days before the start of term that their child school has to close and they don't necessarily have a place to go and get an education. It is shocking that at the end of the summer holidays, where families will be exhausted after all the disruption those young people have experienced through the pandemic, through the strikes as well now here is yet another problem facing their children's education thanks to the incompetence and the neglect of tory government ministers.

The government say they're the only country there's actually proactively seeking information about buildings that have used rack and they say that it's only last minute information that's come to light that shows that some of these schools are vulnerable and they practise straight away. This is complete misleading. We all know and so the government ministers that five years ago in 2018 there was a school in Gravesend in north Kent that collapsed because it had this kind of concrete. Thank God it happened at the weekend and not when children were in.

Since then, the government had report from the National Audit Office, they had a report from the Department for Education itself just last December telling the situation was critical at that point now Nick Gibb either read that and is being disingenuous we didn't do his job under that report.

If I am not mistaken Bridget Phillipson MP who's the shadow secretary for education has raised this issue in questions and debates in parliament over 150 times, so if they're telling to all of us they didn't know this was a problem then not being truthful and they should have taken action at the beginning of the summer holidays so the measures were in place now to ensure those kids get an education whether it's remote or an alternative buildings not days before the start of term.

That is neglect and it is incompetent. The government is saying that they've already taken some action in around 50 schools as this work that's been going on and the latest information is only come to light in the last few days. In some cases, they say, they also have sent out questionnaires and surveys to schools and they're waiting for the results of those to come back some of them being slowed to come back they say they're doing all they can. They had five years how have they not been pursuing this issue when they knew that school collapse five years ago.

What we all would like to see and what Labour party calling on them to do is to publish a list of those schools that are affected. Parents don't know, students don't know, those like Labour party is concerned who are looking at the education system don't know.

Someone has to trigger we all need, that the government to publish a list of all of those schools that are affected in to see condition surveys on all of our schools because if we all don't understand the scale of the problem then we can't see what remedial action needs to be put in place to sort it out.

Make no mistakes, there is no way a competent government would have allowed a situation to develop where days before the start of term they're telling parents that there's no school for their kids to go to because they're not safe when they've had five years to take action and they should have started at the beginning of the school holidays not at the very end of it.

The schools minister Nick Gibb says they've been working on this in great detail there will be teams of people making sure that they minimise the disruption and reassured at all about the actions being taken. With all this Nick Gibb just confirmed and now we all know that Nick Gibb hasn't been doing his job otherwise they wouldn't be taking action days before the start of term that they should have taken all the beginning of the school holidays if not five years ago after that school in Gravesend collapse. In the end of the day, it was nick Gibb who was the education minister who took the decision when the conservatives came to power to cancel labels for rebuilding programme that would have dealt with these problems over a much longer period of time through proper planned maintenance work and he never put anything else in in place for it instead and the truth of it is so much of our public estate is crumbling after 13 years of conservative failure.

It will be difficult to deliver first rate education in secondary buildings and you can't deliver any education in a building that perhaps might collapse.

The same problems with public buildings we see in hospitals, courts, prisons but what we don't know is the scale of the problems because the government won't tell us! They don’t want to expose more “rubbish” before elections. I know that government at point blank refused to answer on majority questions and not give us the figures, the question remains: If the government won't be upfront and honest about what the problem is how on earth can any of us know what needs to happen to sort it out?

The government had that information, they should have taken early enough action so that we don't get left with this crisis.

This morning my heart goes out to those parents who will be wondering what is going to happen to their kids when school term starts.  I just hope it's for a short period of time but we don't even know how many schools are affected or the extent to which they are affected and not even every school that is affected has been told even though the Department for Education and the education ministers have that information they should have been engaging months ago with head teachers and the people responsible for running those schools to put in alternative provision that is how could have minimise disruption. Having said that, the government hasn't acted for years when they knew this problem was coming that is how you could have minimised the disruption but for some reason they chose to sit on their hands and do nothing even though they had report, after report, after report telling them this was going to happen if they didn't act. They didn't act. This is a problem that has resulted because of the ineptitude and neglect of government ministers now.

Just quick reminder: Boris Johnson government promised 40 new hospitals. Where are they build? On Mars Definitely not on Earth, even less in United Kingdom as they cannot even take care of unnecessary repairs at some of the hospitals not to go further.
