We were joined by the Education Secretary Gillian Keegan.

We saw the prime minister pretty angry about the betting allegations in that head to head, the election showdown, as it’s being called. I just want to quote to you what Tory candidate James Cracknell said, he compared your party to, quote, “a shower of s***”. Unforgivable abuse of trust, he said these betting allegations were. You’re no stranger to expletives, do you have the same sort of sentiments?No, I think we do need to let due process go, to prove what’s happened.

But the investment that’s gone into education, at all levels, is in our country’s history quite astonishing, including free childcare or funded childcare.But I’m asking specifically about your manifesto because the IFS has run its slide rule over it, as you know, and they say that because pupil numbers are set to fall by 400,000 and your pledges to protect per pupil spending, that could actually mean there’s a £3.5 billion cut in total school spending by 2028.

We have summarized this news so that you can read it quickly. If you are interested in the news, you can read the full text here. Read more:
