what Mr Fabricant said with Paul Whiteman, general secretary of the NAHT school leaders' union calling them "wholly inaccurate and deeply insulting".Sally Fothergill said if she had had an alcoholic drink in the teacher's staff room "I could easily lose my job"
"It was laughable really, not purely for the fact it wasn't happening as for the fact he thinks we ever have alcohol on site.She added she was not even able to have lunch with her colleagues during lockdowns. "It was tough. My mental health suffered as a result of all that we were doing. It was really pretty dark at times."Margo Longhurst said staff "barely get time for lunch" at her school in Leicester
"[Mr Fabricant] saying we would all be drinking due to Covid, I just thought we have never done that, whatever school I have been at. We barely get time for lunch," she said.
