MPs and family groups have written to Michael Gove MP, the Secretary of State for Education, stating that parents must be supported and upheld as the primary educators of their children when it comes to sex education.

Ask MEPs to vote against pro-homosexual Lunacek report
Between 3 and 6 February, the European Parliament is expected to debate and vote upon a report by Ulrike Lunacek, an Austrian MEP and the co-president of the European Parliament's homosexual rights group. The report is entitled "Roadmap against homophobia and discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity". Proponents of homosexual unions and the homosexual agenda are embarking on an attack on a fundamental natural institution - marriage. SPUC supporters are therefore urged to email MEPs, telling them to vote against the Lunacek report. [SPUC, 6 January]
