Sex education classes have been outsourced to “rainbow activists” who are showing children “graphic” material, the organiser of a right-wing conference in London has said.
James Orr opened the second day of the National Conservatism conference in Westminster with a speech in which he described “the intact family” as “the best stable for forming flourishing, virtuous citizens”.
He said: “It’s why the family has always been the chief target of authoritarian regimes. It’s why today, even here, children are exposed to norms and narratives imported from our cultural colonial overlords in the United States that are as poorly evidenced as they are politically partisan.
“As a number of MPs are now recognising and drawing attention to, sex ed in this country has been outsourced to pretty radical rainbow activists who, when parents ask to see what their children are being taught, plead commercial confidentiality, knowing that the material is almost certainly too graphic to print in a national newspaper.”
