School of sexuality education are the ones who got children to draw pictures of the dick pics they'd received - thereby exposing any of the children who HADN'T ever received dick pics to inappropriate images, and potentially retraumatising the children who had.

And they claimed that children could magically become assertive enough to remove themselves from the lesson if they wanted to, conflating the abilities of fully functioning adults with children and in my opinion pretending that they do not understand normal childhood behaviour and child development. I just don't believe it, my daughter could never just stand up in a lesson and say it made her feel uncomfortable and leave, even if she was severely traumatised by the content.

Perhaps we could use this thread to share DM articles, that might not warrant their own thread? I do appreciate the light they're shining on this subject while feeling faintly appalled that it's come to this.

Anyway they've published another article on a teacher put through the wringer when asked to fill in for a 'sick' teacher to deliver a lesson on puberty. I wonder if the original teacher knew a poisoned chalice when they saw one. Sentence at the end, waddaya know....Stonewall.

This is awful. I hope this man takes legal action. We're going to get to a point where no teacher except one with a political agenda pushing an ideology will agree to give lessons on puberty.

What the school did in this circumstance is abuse the safeguarding system to make this man's life a misery and it worked because he's effectively given up teaching (except for supply).

Meantime, we have the 'school of sexuality education' (not sex, you note, sexuality) sending staff who have not gone through the same safeguarding checks as school staff into schools and this organisation has staff who have links to fetish websites. Which is apparently FINE. And parents being denied the right to scrutinise their resources.

Rag of a newspaper, even

Shall we appreciate the Völkische Beobachter and the Stürmer next? The naivety of some MNers never fails to astound me.

That. No matter what my views might be on a single issue. The Mail is a complete tag of a newspaper. Agreeing with me in any one issue does not make it even close to a decent newspaper. It backs some disgusting views and I find it pathetic that people are prepared to forget that.

I don't see anything wrong with reading articles from the DM. I think the snobbery over this on MN is silly. I also read articles from the Times, Telegraph, Spectator, Economist, the Guardian, lots of online things like Unheard, Quillette, various blogs.
The only things I really balk at are the Independent and the Metro, but it is useful to pay attention to what is in different publications.
Just because I read something doesn't mean I can't think critically about it.

Godwin's law; you are irrelevant.

Many years ago I was told it aims to be a paper for women and it certainly living up to that .

The Daily Mail has been brilliant on this.

@IcakethereforeIam good idea! I've been a mumsnetter for years & "a Daily Mail apprection thread" was never ever something I thought I'd see on here let alone start.. But here we are & fair play to the DM.
Telegraph & Times are also on this but the DM are playing a blinder & have huge social media presence, their articles really do travel!
