Regretfully, the petition to remove #LGBT content from the #UK curriculum has 197,100 signatures.
The counter petition asking for that content to remain, is rapidly gaining ground. It now has 78,919 signatures!
Pls sign the counter petition if able. British citizens & UK residents have the right to sign. Pls boost otherwise!

@KittenInACave I'm going to be *that* guy, but personally I'm not in favour of the counter petition.
If authority (media, politicians etc.) are really going full-blown anti-LGBTQ+ for the normie distraction they need, I want to know who will defend the original petition and hear them say it and why.
With the counter's existence, they will just "both sides" it to weasel out of stating their *true* position, then go back to covertly continuing their weaponising of us against us regardless.
To be honest I feel like they will "both sides" it either way, but I hear your point. It adds credence to that *always* bullshit defense.
@KittenInACave @XLCChelt They will treat it the way they do all petitions in which they have no real interest. Anodyne reply. Formulaic ‘debate’ in parliament. Next.
In this case, that’s a good thing.
I'm just hoping they HAVE no interest! That's always my concern with the tories! I can't tell what heinous way they'll think they can get away with swinging to next!
