On exam results, Gavin Williamson tells @LBC: "When Ofqual came to me recognising the fact there were flaws, and the fixes that would need to be put in place to address those, I didn’t believe it would be feasible that we’d have time to put those fixes into place."
Under repeated questioning from @NickFerrariLBC, Gavin Williamson refuses several times to say unequivocally that he has confidence in Ofqual, and Sally Collier, the chief regulator.

Nick Ferrari: "Have you offered to resign?"
Gavin Williamson: "My focus is three fold: make sure students get grades they deserve, make sure students are in schools in September, and make sure we continue the revolution in education."

Williamson describes his conversations with the Prime Minister as "very good, thank you."
Nick F: "Did he lose his temper?"
"The PM is a very even tempered person and didn't lose his temper, he agreed it was the right thing to do."
