Great Britain, a once-proud nation, now finds itself in the clutches of extreme woke ideology, serving as a stark warning for the United States. As reported by The Telegraph, startling new data shows that a toddler, just three or four years old, faced suspension from nursery school after being accused of “transphobic” or “homophobic” behavior during the 2022-23 academic year.

Department for Education (DfE) data show the child, aged either three or four, was suspended from a state school in the 2022-23 academic year for “abuse against sexual orientation and gender identity”.

While specifics of this troubling case, including the name of the school, remain undisclosed, it is clear that this young child was not alone in facing such punitive measures. According to The Telegraph, 94 other pupils at state primary schools were either suspended or permanently excluded for similar accusations of transphobia and homophobia during the same academic year.

Commenting on this alarming case, Toby Young, director of the Free Speech Union, expressed disbelief. He stated, “It beggar’s belief that schools are suspending children as young as five for breaching their ‘transphobia’ policy.”

He further argued, “I would have thought that if your ideology is so rigid it justifies you punishing toddlers for not complying with it, that’s a powerful argument for discarding it in favour of something less dogmatic.”
