The Gift Horse Now Inside Troy's City Walls

Conservative values? That now means forcing your children into sex lessons


Revolutionaries love to indoctrinate children. You can look up yourself who said these words: 'When an opponent declares, 'I will not come over to your side', I calmly say, 'Your child belongs to us already… What are you? You will pass on.  Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.' '
But it does not really matter who it was. It is horribly true, and it is what all these meddlers think and why they are all so keen on getting control of schools and youth movements.

This week, they took a great step towards their goal, which is the eradication of all that is left of conservative Christian opinion in this country.

Some of you will be astonished (I am not) that it was a nominally Conservative government which last week announced the extension of compulsory 'relationship' education and 'sex education' throughout the school system.  Of course, in our innocence-free society, there is nobody over the age of about seven who does not know how babies are made. This 'education' will be about what to think, not what to do. 
If you can ever get your own children's schools to disgorge the material they are using, you will find that it will cover the whole broad front of sexual liberation from condoms to sex-changes.

Many beliefs will become unsayable, and so unthinkable. It is already the case, for instance, that you will be greeted with shock and anger in most schools if you say that marriage is between a man and a woman, and that it is better than alternative forms of family. If you are wise, you will not risk saying any such thing. . . . 
The Times columnist Janice Turner, miles to the Left of me, is already feeling the cold breath of the thought police on her neck, for bravely resisting conformism on the transgender issue. 
This will happen because of this compulsory indoctrination in school, approved by a man called Damian Hinds, of whom almost nothing interesting is known, who has somehow become Secretary of State for Education.
Mr Hinds has openly broken a clear pledge given two years ago by a Tory government.

The genuinely conservative MP Edward Leigh asked him a quietly devastating question in Parliament: 'All previous Conservative Governments… have given an untrammelled right to parents to remove their children from sex education but here, in certain circumstances, that right has been transferred to the head teacher – a fundamental shift of power to the State.'
'How does that square with what Edward Timpson, the then Minister for Vulnerable Children and Families, said during the passage of the Children and Social Work Bill? 
He said, 'We have committed to retain a right to withdraw from sex education in RSE, because parents should have the right, if they wish, to teach sex education themselves in a way that is consistent with their values.' '
Mr Hinds did not answer it. So another Tory MP who doesn't toe the line, Julian Lewis, pressed the point: 'He keeps adding the words, 'unless there are exceptional circumstances'. 
Why have those words been added? In what circumstances would a head teacher overrule a parent? Is not the likely effect of this going to be that in some cases, instead of children getting necessary sex education in schools, more parents are going to keep their children out of school?'

Mr Hinds avoided that, too. The law now sides with the State against the parent, and that is that.
And this was the moment at which a vital freedom died. The 1980 prophecy of that appalling fanatic Lady Helen Brook 'From birth till death it is now the privilege of the parental State to take major decisions – objective, unemotional, the State weighs up what is best for the child' has now come true, and under a Tory government propped up by supposedly ultra-conservative Ulstermen.
I quite understand why people don't fancy having Jeremy Corbyn as Prime Minister. But if this sort of Trotskyist cultural revolution carries on while the Tories are in office, I am not sure it will make all that much difference.
