Who the fuck is asking for this? Literally nobody, the government is just doing whatever they want at this point
Thank you. I really needed a good way to describe what i was seeing the current election cicle.
All these weird promises, bad ideas, sudden legislations i am seeing around are so detached from the problems i witness. Every time i see an ad for a party i want to vote for em less. Some of it even feels like it laughing in my face and taking the piss at us.
They are just doing what they want at this point!
Thank you!
Edit: This rant has little to do on the subject of sex education in the uk.
There’s basically a hierarchy in political decision making.
- Doing things that are good for the country.
- Doing things that voters want.
- Doing things your party wants.
1 should be the reason you get into politics in the first place because you want to make the world a better place. 2 is also super important, we live in a democracy and if you don’t give people some of what they want you’re not doing your job. 3 is basically day to day politicking. You throw red meat to members of the party so they continue to support you.
The Tory party is now so up their own arses that they only do 3 in the hope that they won’t tear themselves apart. This is some random anti-woke bullshit, that will mean it’s harder to catch and prevent child abuse, and kids can’t learn basic biology. And it doesn’t even appeal to what’s left of their fanbase.
it’s not even really 3 - i’d say we’re at 4 - inventing problems that don’t exist to avoid doing 1 and 2
these aren’t even things their party wants - they don’t really care… they just need to distract from the mess they’ve created to avoid fixing it for another election cycle
Or at 5 - salting the earth to make 1, 2 & 3 much, much harder for Labour.
There are definitely people asking for this, but its pedos, rapists and pro lifers.
Yes party donors.
terfs too
What this country really needs to do right now is make sure that children are as vulnerable to sexual abuse as they can possibly be. Without some level of sex education to teach them what is absolutely not okay for an adult to force them to do they won’t know that they should seek help and won’t know how to describe what’s happening if they do. Ideal for the paedophiles in power and their friends.
uk citizens: can we have housing???
uk politicians: best we can do is bring back section 28
The Conservatives have heard about culture wars from their friends in the US, but they haven’t quite grasped the fundamental principle that it has to be about something that anybody gives two hoots about.
Then they wander around been sad that their voting numbers are down, and they really can’t work out why.
Seems like another common sense law
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The BBC has not seen the new guidelines but a government source said they included plans to ban any children being taught about gender identity.
The National Association of Head Teachers has previously raised concerns the review is “politically motivated”, saying there is no evidence to suggest a widespread problem with pupils being presented with age-inappropriate materials.
The review was announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak following concerns that some children were being exposed to “inappropriate content”.
The government believes that clearer guidance will provide support for teachers and reassurance for parents.The proposals, which are expected to be announced on Thursday, will set out which topics should be taught to pupils at what age.
Under current guidance, external, it is down to primary schools to decide whether they need to cover any aspect of sex education to meet the needs of their pupils.
Last year more than 50 Conservative MPs wrote to the prime minister claiming children were being “indoctrinated with radical and unevidenced ideologies about sex and gender”.Separate guidance published last year stated teachers should inform parents if their child wished to change their gender identity at school.
