I’m not necessarily disagreeing mate but how would you go about challenging it?

I totally agree. Just frustrated that I genuinely can’t think of a way of turning it around. It seems to be the way things are going these days.

Good Day Bluebirdoct1962
This sort of teaching in schools, colleges, universities by liberal lefty academic types has been going on for years now. I do not know how we can all stop this from carrying on. It is happening all over the UK.
The Welsh Assembly Labour Government combined with the Liberal Education Minister have done more damage in the last 21 years of power than most people know.
Democracy is a word they do not understand. Public Consultation on Banning Smacking 87% disagreed on First Consultation, Then 85% on second consultation - what happened, The Labour Majority in the WAG pushed it through. Same thing is now happening with RVE (religion, Values, Ethics) to replace RE in Schools which will involve teaching Atheism, Humanism.etc (we are still predominately a basic Christian society and our society has foundations built on this way of life) which parents have NO right to withdraw children from.Once again in public consultation 72% against changes But it has been pushed through.
Basically, They do what they want.
So to answer your question " how we go about challenging it" - I do not think we can as it has been taught for over a generation now.
One thing we could do in Wales is to Vote out the Labour Loonies down the bay and replace them with more loonies !
