Labour has announced it will force the government to reveal a complete list of affected schools, and now calls for transparency on the scale of the problem and for fast solutions. Its been known for a while and what we have also known for a while is there is a squeeze on school funding, and my committee has highlighted that repeatedly, and my committee has highlighted that and when you dont invest in maintenance and improvements in schools you get these problems arising but with raac its a systemic failure of the actual material used to build them. Hospital buildings and Court Buildings among those impacted and internal documents obtained by The Sunday Times suggest hospitals could be at risk of catastrophic collapse.

First line of russian defences and part of the south. Now mine fields have been blocking the troops for weeks. That means when they are blocked, of course they are vulnerable to russian shelly.
