I've recently been forwarded this by a friend,
I'm not sure if it's a wind up as no one can cite the original source. I myself am totally against this sort of thing. I do not see whay this has to be bought into a childs reading classes.
A tale of a handsome prince and an aging queen ready for retirement is a classic setting for a children’s fairy tale but when the handsome prince falls for another handsome prince it’s time to ask just what is going on?
Children as young as four will be introduced to such stories which promote homosexual relationships as new gay rights laws come into force in April. There are already several primary schools taking part in the taxpayer-funded study (costing £600,000) to introduce children to homosexuality.

Academics have claimed that telling the children "gay stories" will reduce homophobic playground bullying. However, groups opposed to the indoctrination of children say that schools could face legal action if they refuse to use the gay books.
The books include "King & King" where a prince refuses three princesses before he falls in love and marries one of their brothers; "Spacegirl Pukes" in which the leading character has two mothers; and a story about two male penguins who meet and fall in love in a New York zoo. The penguin story has caused intense debate in the US, where it is already being read to young children. Parents are furious saying that "…they're trying to indoctrinate our children. They're intentionally presenting this as a norm, and it's not a value that our family supports."
The Equality Act states that all public institutions must meet the needs of gays and lesbians, but surely this shouldn't include the brainwashing of children as young as four years old!
