Really? They’re going with that? “No safeguarding for children in schools!!!” They think that’s a good move?
The right wing in the House of Lords has organised a debate for the 7th of December on safeguarding in schools! We must push back against these people. https://t.co/aTH7J9jXc3

Nobody is demonising young people, and no CHILDREN are “LGBTQ+”, for goodness’ sake! Yes, some are non-conforming, by reason of developmental disorders, or because post puberty they are going to be same-sex attracted, and thus will, when older, be part of the LGB.
But TQ+ are adult concerns and fetishes – it would never occur to any child to think in that way, without being indoctrinated by someone.
And not all gender non-conforming children will grow up to be same sex attracted. Some of us just find the clothes and roles established for our sex to be uncomfortable and difficult to play in or work in.
No one is ‘LGBTQ+’. The acronym is a shady political device. Its primary function is to aid the ‘T’ in taking over the organisations and benefiting from the long campaign that eventually won lesbians and gays some legal and social acceptance. As for the ‘Q’, we are frequently told that it stands either for “queer” or “questioning” – but which? And questioning what? Nobody seems entirely sure, but it expands the so-called ‘umbrella’, which is supposed to be a good thing. Finally, the ‘+’. According to Pink News it ‘represents other sexual identities including pansexual, asexual and omnisexual’. I don’t know how actual ‘asexual’ people (and they do exist) feel about being lumped in like this. Not too thrilled, I imagine.
