In other words, the elementary school was planting the seeds of LGBT acceptance, and the majority Muslim population was not happy about it, threatening to pull their children out of the school. “It’s good to teach children about respect and values but the sexual orientation aspect is against our principles,” said one mother and father.

A month later, the school dropped the “No Outsiders” project after hundreds of parents pulled their children from the school for a day in protest.

We’d thought that was the end of it, by Sky News on Tuesday posted video of Labour MP Angela Eagle literally breaking into tears on the floor of Parliament in response to protests at another elementary school in Birmingham:

You can have your liberal society, or you can have multiculturalism.


Choose.

The MP in question, Angela Eagle married her partner Maria Exall in 2008.

So I think she may well become upset about such issues.

They were warned, repeatedly, that sooner or later their intersectional politics would blow up in their faces. And the more they bring into their country, the more clashes there will be. The whole LGBT-Muslim alliance is a sham, a pipe-dream.

TBH - I don't think they should be teaching young children such things without the parents permission, and many Christian groups including some in the US, would agree with the Muslims on this one.

The left are often stupid, we already know that, and don't need reminding.

Its like a condiment on a hamburger. Sure you like ketchup and onions, but when the vendor drowns your burger in ketchup and onions, it make that meal unpalatable.


Anytime someone tries to forces something on you, what was comfortably tolerable, becomes an issue of contention.


No lgbt curriculum, unless every human affliction and variable has its own curriculum.


why not have a curriculum on smokers. tell their history and why they defy the small print on the ciggy packs and continue to smoke?


Socialism continues on its subverted course.


no problem with lgbt q, just the activists who force feed it and the media and portals of social justice, formerly called schools, who promote it.


So much for reading, writing, history, math and science.....'no time for you, go! graduate with an asterisk on your diploma, * 'hire me for _____________ ( fill in the blank) because I am well versed in social justice issues"

Teach kids "mind your own business"
This would include minding your own business when a classmate shows up with 2 males/2 females as parents.

And yet, children have to be taught about Islam no?


The native gays have more right to have their history taught in Britain than the Muslims do.

Despite their pretensions to being worldly and better educated, Europeans, especially, are a famously naive lot.

They used to say that Russia is so terrible because all the bravest men were killed in WW2, and Stalin finished off the smartest ones after that.



I think Europe is suffering from some version of that. Never in history has an entire continent of people welcomed and facilitated its own decline and demise. A veritable "hand over the keys and hope for the best" scenario to a culture and religion that has had its eyes set on Europe since 800AD.


"If we are nice to them now, they'll be nice to us when they're in the majority, right? That's how it's worked historically?"

I don't think they should be teaching students LGBT acceptance as its just a political tool.

LGBT students exist in schools. And, unlike their Muslim and other religious classmates, LGBT students have no choice in the matter.


There's a delicate way to teach it. And an appropriate age. Nothing graphic. But you need to prepare students for the real world so what's the big deal?

The Muslims don't want it taught at all because they're regressive and conservative. And it's getting worse as they flex their political power and strength-in-ever-growing-numbers.
