“One of the children is even holding up a sign which reads: I can’t even think straight.”
Seems a bit much for primary aged kids. Wouldn’t it be enough to just teach them some people are gay, trans, etc and leave it at that.
She wants Section 28. Duffield will stop at nothing less. Trying to appease these facebook meme perverts and genital inspectors is a lost cause.
Can they pull the whip now they’re in and don’t need her to shore up the majority?
What a disgusting person. I can’t think how LGBTQ+ people in Canterbury must feel being represented by this piece of shit.
Seems a case of forcing it at that age. Can only imagine, in this particular case, parents/guardians have had a significant hand in it.
Given the age group, maybe go fkn focus on something these learners can actually wrap their still extremely young brains around- sharks and dolphins, the local wildlife concerns etc.
Huh who could have predicted that one of the loudest anti trans voices would suddenly pivot to anti LGB…
>and shows children holding rainbow flags as part of a Pride celebration day.
How can she find a problem with this? Are children supposed to be shielded from the horrors of pride until they turn 18?
why do these people think Pride flags or any kind of flag etc is about sexualizing children?
She is a bigot who is going out of their way to be bigoted.
James Esses is a right wing grifter and commonal garden bigot. No left wing person would retweet him.
As for pride in infant schools, one day, probably long before they are a teenager, will come across someone who has LGBT+ parents. And do you want them to have learned about that from a pride event, or will you leave that to the cruelest playground bully?
/eye roll
If only they cared as much about kids going hungry.
That’s got to be it right? Labour will finally deservedly kick her to the curb? I know it’s trendy to hate on trans people at the moment so they’ve turned a blind eye on that, but now she’s specifically mentioned sexuality. Will that be too far for Labour?
The picture is on her Twitter judging by the age of the children I’d be surprised if any of them think about sexuality. I suspect the picture says more about the photographer than the kids.
Sexuality in schools is rather tricky in my experience. When my kids were in school some locals from church became rather outraged when they found out there were gay teachers. We had a sex education talk as the school were rolling out new relationship training which had one paragraph about families that could be headed by gay people, grandparents, foster parents or siblings and this made people very very annoyed.
As long as my kids went to school happy and came on happy it was all good to me. Now they are adults they don’t care about your race, sexuality or religion so something went right.
