Anti-LGBT+ Letters Handed Out Outside School In Birmingham
A correspondent for the Midlands BBC, Sima Kotecha, has tweeted a photograph of a letter being handed out to local parents outside Anderton Park Primary School.
The letter, being given out by anti-LGBT+ bigots who don't think LGBT+ rights belong in schools, by a parent group calling themselves Anderton Park Parents Community Group. The group have previously protested against LGBT+ inclusive education.
The leaflet claims that LGBT+ education 'promotes a whole-school gay ethos. It teaches children it is ok to be gay in all religions... you can even be gay and Muslim. It teaches 4-year-old children that they can be a boy or a girl. It teaches boys it is okay to marry your best friend 'Abdul'. It discriminates against the beliefs of parents and children.'
The letter then goes on to add, 'We do NOT believe in homosexuality. Parents do NOT want their children's belief changed.'
Anderton Park Parents Community Group are a hate group. They have engaged in harassment towards parents and teachers, they have engaged in homophobic, transphobic, and islamophobic rhetoric, views which have no place in a school.
