List of schools with safety-risk concrete revealed as Sunak denies cutting repairs budget – as it happened

5.42pm BST

Afternoon summary

• Keir Starmer has likened Rishi Sunak’s government to a group of “cowboy builders” during a prime minister’s questions in which the Labour leader sought to portray the prime minister as out of touch over the concrete crisis. Earlier, in a TV interview, Starmer accused Sunak of prioritising cutting taxes on champagne over providing the necessary funding for school building repairs.

• Twenty-four schools across England will receive some remote learning because of the concrete crisis, according to a newly published government list of schools identified as having a type of potentially dangerous concrete.

• Ministers have been accused of covering up evidence for months about crumbling concrete at a Scottish school, which led to the rushed decision to close more than 100 other schools.

• MPs have voted down a Labour motion saying the government should publish internal documents giving details of what funding the Department for Education wanted for school repairs when Rishi Sunak was chancellor, and how the Treasury responded. Within the last few minutes the Labour motion was defeated by 309 votes to 175. Gillian Keegan, the education secretary, said that governments had to be able to discuss policy options in private, and that any documents that were published would not provide a full picture of why decisions were taken.

• The UK’s long-anticipated return to the EU’s £80bn science research programme Horizon Europe is on the brink of being confirmed, possibly as early as Thursday.

• Proposed welfare changes that the government says will help disabled people benefit from the chance to work from home could lead to many losing out on almost £400 a month in support, campaigners say.

Nicola Sturgeon addresses Scottish parliament for first time since standing down as first minister

Nicola Sturgeon has made her first speech in the Holyrood chamber since she stepped down as first minister in April.

Contributing to the debate that follows the programme for government – Holyrood’s equivalent of the king’s speech – she was inevitably supportive of Humza Yousaf’s policy platform set out yesterday, although it has since been criticised by anti-poverty campaigners as “timid” and dismissed as a “rehash” and a “Nicola Sturgeon tribute act” by opposition leaders.

Sturgeon picked out his expansion of her own initiatives on childcare and children in care for especial praise, and went on to challenge MSPs on polarisation in politics, which has been a favourite theme of hers since she first resigned in February.

She had to rush her speech at the end, speaking over the deputy presiding officer, who was urging her to wrap up, and inadvertently called her “first minister”, an indication of the strangeness of the situation. It’s jarring to see the person who previously commanded the chamber on the backbenches, and equally hard not to view that command in the context of what has come next: the unravelling of the SNP’s public support and internal unity, and her own arrest along with her husband, the former SNP chief executive Peter Murrell, in relation to the ongoing police investigation into party finances.

She also concluded that campaigning for independence “won’t stop me arguing for a more incremental expansion of our powers along the way”, something she was criticised for not doing enough of when in power.

Doorstepped by reporters afterwards, she said it had been a “very different” experience delivering her first backbench speech in almost 20 years: it was a “good experience and I look forward to contributing more in weeks and months to come”, she said.
