They're trying to create a Pavlovian fear in the youngest of children, teaching them to be too terrified to have a unapproved opinion. Note that the BBC chose an image with an all White classroom for once.

BBC: At its annual conference in Glasgow later, NASUWT president David Anderson will say racism and misogyny is a growing concern in schools and more needs to be done to tackle online extremism.

A motion at the conference says the language of the extremist influencers is becoming "normalised" for some young people.

It calls for early education on hate speech because by secondary school, many pupils may already have been exposed to far-right narratives.

Teachers have told the BBC that they have seen a rise in sexist and racist abuse in the classroom – much of which they believe has been as a result of online materials and influencers.

Whilst it will be very easy for many to cheer this, and I understand the anger about sex offenders and the awful crimes they commit, we are crossing a line here on body autonomy and it will come back to haunt us all, in ways people cannot yet perceive

Once we descend as a society into things like this, they become normalised and rolled out in all sorts of circumstances

Supporting this policy is the first step in setting a precedent for state intervention in bodily autonomy for everyone

Ps it will never be used on "elite offenders" either!

The only thing anyone should ever ask about things such as the above 👆is "how could this somehow be turned against me in the future"?

Many of us, myself and UK Column included, have repeatedly tried to inform people how the law is used as a weapon. It really hurts that some people still don't seem to understand this

The above is a naked attempt to nudge everyone into thinking the state has a right to force medical interventions

Imagine if the state had had this sort of power during 2020

It starts with "offenders" and it moves onto applying to the masses. It's how these things always go

In these years I increasingly withdraw long-assumed opinions and characterisations of people, including influential people such as Henry VIII, Pasteur and Margaret Thatcher. Whether or not deeply the embedded characterisations and narratives are ‘true’, they are never the full story. It becomes ever more apparent that every mere mortal in time and space juggles a tangled inner mass of motivations, hopes and fears - whether they are illusory or real.

Tonight on UK Column, Jerm's conversation with America's most censored comedian, Owen Benjamin.

It's an incredibly funny and un-PC chat, so be sure you're not easily offended.
