Good news to be sure on the gender education and indoctrination front. I can't exactly celebrate the coalition though, having little faith in anything else this govt will do for women and children. Looks like the healthy lunch programme in schools that every left-wing govt this century has introduced and every right-wing govt has promptly vetoed when elected, because healthy eating children is the last thing the the Big Food billionaires that back the right-wing want, is for the chop again. Such a travesty that it has come to this for all modern Western democracies, having to choose between safety, dignity and fairness for women and children, on the one hand, and healthy affordable food for school children, especially the underprivileged children and families, on the other. But thank you for the clear roundup of the relevant policy positions; I'm certainly glad Winston is there to keep the other two from the extremes of free-market libertarianism and social conservatism.

I'm not overly enthusiastic about some of the other things this government will bring in with them, either. I put the blame squarely on the Left for this government, though, because if they hadn't done such a totalitarian job on us with woke ideology, those who abandoned it wouldn't have, and the Left would have sailed back into power.

Yes. It seems that's the sorry state of affairs we must live with today. As an active volunteer campaigner for Labour for decades, and a candidate in training for a brief time, I am still in disbelief and some grief too about the way the Left here as elsewhere has exposed itself as an anti-feminist, even anti-women movement.
