Woke Waste Has Become Even Worse Under Labour

This week, Peter Kyle, the Secretary of State for Science Innovation and Technology, has been making all sorts of bold promises about the UK’s future as a technology leader.

Speaking at London Tech Week 2025, he announced there would be “a record £86 billion in funding for R&D” to spur our country as it “enters the digital economic age”.

A roll of nonsense to justify the “employment” of multicolour-hair activists who did comical degrees if you ask me.

The woke force is very strong in the UK, and nowhere is it stronger or more pervasive than throughout the education system, which also happens to be the most dangerous place to promote this toxic ideology. James Esses has done a great job in uncovering this material being taught in one particular institute; ”Over the years, I have been sent enormous quantities of concerning materials being taught to children in UK schools. However, never have I come across a school that has ideology baked into everything it does. Until now. King’s College London Mathematics School (KCLMS) is a taxpayer-funded State school. It is an extremely high performing and well-regarded school, having previously been ranked the Best Sixth Form in the country by The Times. A few weeks ago, I was contacted by two whistleblowers – one a former student at KCLMS, another the parent of a current student. For obvious reasons, they have asked to remain anonymous. In the words of the former student, the entire modus operandi of the school is to “brainwash and suppress free speech”.

That so-called Euclidean geometry was developed in Greece is also among them, although people hell-bent on white erasure might not like that.

It’s commies doing what comes easiest to them, nothing of much use to anyone except their lunatic fringe. Only four more years, Groan!

This has been going on since 1997, for the last 28 years, and for as long as the Civil Service and the Quangoriat remain dominated by unelecred politicians in favour of this agenda, it won’t ever end. Reportedly, we just passed through 14 years of Tory rule. Did someone actually notice that this had happened?

Call-Me-Dave wasn’t a conservative: he was quite happy working with other Lib-Dems.

Many members, outside Parliament, in the party were well aware.

You could remove the word “woke” from the title and it would still be applicable. Probably applies equally to the Fake Conservative government before it.

I almost choked on my coffee to see the £800k splurged on ‘improving the language around FGM’, which then goes on to define it as “a harmful practice that involves the partial or total removal of external female genitalia for non-medical reasons.”

And yet FGM (and MGM) when ‘affirming’ someone’s gender delusions is fine.

What does this study hope to achieve? Reframe the definition of FGM to make it seem a brave and powerful life choice?
