Public Health, Indeed

“It’s a hyper-sexualised British culture in which women are objectified, objectify one another, and are encouraged to objectify themselves.”

“Young boys’ world view is shaped by hardcore American pornography and other dark corners of the internet.”

“We need to talk about how we put families, and not the lowest common denominator of the market, back in control. We’ve got to build a society based on open-minded family values, and not ‘anything goes’ market values.”

“We’re seeing an alien, warped view of sex normalised into our culture, engrained by the invisible hand of the market.”

The Hackney roots of Blue Labour are showing after all.

Diane Abbott is still wrong to put her faith in the Sex Education racket. But the foundations are very solid indeed. We can deal with the roof when we come to have to put it on.

You cannot be both a capitalist and a conservative. It is plainly and simply impossible.

  1. Sex ed is a racket, but we'd have to change our culture to get rid of it.

    If nobody adheres to Christian morality any more, what can we do?

  2. Convert them.

    This is a start. Abbott may not know it, or at least not fully. But she has opened the door.

  3. But she isn't opposing sex education, but the way the market and capitalism exploits sexualising children.

    Its a standard socialist-feminist argument!

  4. A lot of things are, and they don't get passed on by Christian Concern. The plates are shifting.
