We run two wonderful schools in Scunthorpe - Oasis Academy Parkwood and Oasis Academy Henderson Avenue. So we are thankful to government for the huge steps they are taking to secure a more hopeful future not only for British Steel but for our children and their families.

Darren Jones, "If I believed nothing would change.. I wouldn't be sat here today.. I would go off and do something else, other than sit in front of audiences on national TV trying to set out how we're trying to change things"
"Are things hard? They absolutely are.. But you have to lift your head.. You're trying to improve people's lives.. To make Britain a better place to live in and to work"
"You have to believe in our democratic system otherwise you lose all hope" #BBCQT
