Social commentator Paula London has raged at a primary school for getting young children to pose with a trans-inclusive flag.
It comes after Labour MP Rosie Duffield said “tiny” pupils could not understand the concepts of sexuality and gender identity, but they are being encouraged to celebrate it anyway.
The London school posted the image on social media showing an infant school class marking ‘Pride Day’ last month.
Speaking on GB News, London praised the Labour MP while also echoing her sentiments.

“Understandably, there has been uproar”, she said.
“I think a lot of Labour MPs would actually endorse this behaviour but I am very pleased with Rosie Duffield for speaking out.

“She has spoken out on this issue before. Gender issues in schools, but she has been penalised for it and not supported.
“It seems to be more a problem with the left, they seem to be pushing this more on children. They should be learning to read and write.
“I don’t understand why the left wing are trying to push sexuality and trans rights onto children.
“Posting this onto social media is strange as well, it’s not fair for the children.”

Former Liberal Democrats MP Norman Baker agreed with London, saying the image was “ridiculous”.
He told Eamonn Holmes and Isabel Webster: “Whatever you think about trans issues, it’s totally inappropriate to use children in this way.
“It’s ridiculous. They have no idea what they are doing, they are just standing there with a flag.
“It’s totally wrong and I hope it doesn’t happen again.”

The school put it on X, formerly Twitter, last Friday with the caption: “Being proud of who we are and celebrating pride values.”
Following backlash to the image, the school removed the image from its website and social media.
The school has previously asked pupils to wear bright colours on Pride Day and donate £1 which would go to controversial trans rights group Stonewall.
