Not sure if anyone else has been following this over the last two days...

Bridget Phillipson, the Shadow Education Secretary, was on the BBC yesterday, refusing to agree that she would keep the proposed ban on teaching gender identity ideology that is in the draft RSHE guidance. Labour avoids saying it will scrap proposed gender lessons ban - BBC News

However, today, Starmer has said that he won't allow gender ideology to be taught in schools.

Keir Starmer will not allow ‘gender ideology’ to be taught in schools (thetimes.com)

Clear as mud, huh? I don't trust them at all. Philipson's response to being asked about children's education and safeguarding was to talk about 'trans people'. 🙄 I would have thought that the Cass Review should have come above that.

Labour avoids saying it will scrap proposed gender lessons ban

Bridget Phillipson says draft guidance has some "good" parts but "other elements" are "too partisan".

Now is a good time for JKR to have a good scalding twitter thread again to illustrate their hypocrisy.

Very worrying. Feels like Starmer had asked her not to say the quiet part out loud so she scared the horses with her shit interview and he has come crashing in to smooth it all over. I don't believe a word he says.
