Largest Teaching Union Votes to Oppose “Racist, Fascist and Far Right” Reform in Classrooms and Campaign to Overturn Palestine Action Ban

The National Education Union – Britain’s largest teaching union – has voted to combat “racist, fascist and far Right” Reform UK in classrooms and lobby to overturn a ban on extreme group Palestine Action. The Mail has more.

The National Education Union (NEU) passed a motion today to “oppose” Nigel Farage’s party, claiming it is “racist, fascist and far Right”.

The motion committed the union to distribute “anti-racist teaching materials” as part of a campaign to stop the party taking power.

It also called on teachers to “campaign actively” against Reform UK in the forthcoming local elections, on May 7th.

And it said teachers should encourage “school-based anti-deportation campaigns” to support failed asylum seekers.

This afternoon, Reform’s Education Spokesman Suella Braverman MP said: “This is yet more evidence of political indoctrination in our classrooms, cheered on by militant trade union chiefs.

“The National Education Union is blatantly political, biased and partisan and that’s what it wants its members – many of them teaching in our schools – to teach our children.

“Parents are sick of it, Britain’s schools should be about education, not ideology. Reform UK stands with hardworking teachers and mums and dads who love Britain and want our schools to be free from political dogma.”

Meanwhile, Chris McGovern, a retired headteacher who runs the Campaign for Real Education, said: “The intolerant, authoritarian and anti-democratic NEU delegates who passed this motion are carnivorous sheep. They are the real fascists.

“Most parents will be appalled that classrooms are to be turned into platforms for political indoctrination and brainwashing.

‘”he Government needs to enforce the law which outlaws bias and indoctrination in schools.”

The motion was passed at the union’s annual conference in Brighton, which is famous for showcasing hard-Left causes. …

Separately, the union also vowed to campaign to legalise the Palestine Action group, which was proscribed under terror laws last year due to criminal damage during protests.

Well done for that photo of the leader of Britain’s National Education Union, Daniel Kebede, an Ethnic African Ethiopian Marxist.

As so typical of successful Third World Ethnics in the West, he chose an Ethnic European partner, who then bore his child.

And he chose a white still somewhat Christian somewhat capitalist country in which to live. I wonder how he came to be here.

The anti-white and anglophobic (i.e. racialist and fascist) teachers’ union has voted to combat “racism” and fascism. Yet, interestingly, it’s not intending to end its own racialism.

I’m absolutely certain that all the piercing-festooned, purple-haired land whales at every open borders rally are doing it. Definitely. No doubt.

What’s the collective noun for a group of Leftie nobheads? Not looking very ‘diverse’ here, I must say;

”More scenes from the public freakshow in London at the weekend as the deranged left were handed Soros funded placards, and did this, to “stop the far right”;

This Iranian chap knows the score;

”Exiled Iranian calls out the useful idiots who marched against the imaginary “far right” in London. Explains that the capital is already under sharia law via Sadiq Khan and Keir Starmer. Says what’s happening in Britain is how Iran fell 50 years ago, and he’s had to flee London to get away from it.”

As per the placard behind the NEU apparatchik:

Equality means inequality, justice means injustice, education means indoctrination, socialism means theft.

Sections 406 and 407 of the Education Act 1996 forbids the promotion of partisan political views, requires the balanced presentation of opposing views on political issues in schools, and applies to both teaching and extracurricular activities.

Just the kind of thing that Rupert Lowe and Restore Britain would absolutely detest and work to remove these traitors from their positions.

Illegal surely. But too many teachers are familiar with illegal partisan presentation in schools and universities.

Rather than accept responsibility for a generation of kids leaving school unable to read, write add up or understand the world of work and human development they double down with this shite.

Scumbags.

Reform needs to investigate why Teacher pensions need employer contributions approaching 30 percent while the local government scheme costs around 15.5 percent and even has a surplus that the thieving Labour party want to get their hands on.

The NEU probably organised the looting of Clapham earlier in the week…

The one person I know who is a teacher and member of the NEU is cancelling their membership and going elsewhere

SO the NEU has very generously given Reform a heads-up on which “teachers” are likely to be breaking the law regarding political indoctrination and are therefore prime candidates for dismissal.

Thanks guys.
