Maybe it was inevitable that once same-sex marriage was on the books, activists would double down on their goal of indoctrinating our children with postmodern notions of sexual experimentation and gender change. Well, inevitable or not, that’s the stage the sexual revolution has now reached. Under the guise of reducing bullying and improving self-respect,…
Parents and MPs protest over ‘state takeover’ of parenting as Government moves forward with compulsory RSE “A fundamental shift of power to the state.” Ministers have been accused of mounting a “state takeover” of parenting , as the Government released new draft final regulations and guidelines on Relationships and Sex Education, which will be compulsory…
Theresa May’s sex and equalities legislation is “child abuse” If you’ve been keeping a close eye on the long march of the LGBTI agenda, you will know that its activists escalated efforts to indoctrinate the youngest of schoolchildren into accepting their ideologies in 2018, and this has continued unimpeded in 2019.
