Mumsnet gets a mention in this Express article
Tories must fight back against the strange new norms pervading society | Express Comment | Comment | Express.co.uk
As figures such as Ron DeSantis in Florida and Glenn Youngkin in Virginia have shown, a determined deployment of legislative and executive power provides the only plausible means of conserving cultural identity against the corrosive effects of authoritarian progressivism.
National conservatives in other parts of the world have defended social norms in ways that may seem unthinkable in a socially liberal country like Britain. But, social conservatism today differs sharply from the social conservatism of yesteryear.
It is now routine for even the liberally inclined to express alarm at the rise of transhumanist technologies, the continuing erosion of the family, the nationalisation of childcare, and the alarming proliferation of strange new norms governing sexuality and gender identity.
Across an array of cultural and bio-political questions, social conservatives find themselves in coalition with unfamiliar allies, ranging from Mumsnet activists to gender-critical feminists. Despite their ideological differences, these unlikely bedfellows are united by core commitments on a range of issues.
They take pride in our national history and heritage. They criticise the over-reach of the ‘diversity’ industry, and they want to protect children from instruction in new ideological narratives that are poorly evidenced. There is even consensus on levels of migration that have brought few of the benefits that were cited as justification in the first place.
