Christian mother sues primary school over LGBT Pride event by Staff writer for Christian Today
GNN Note – this is one of the “wedge” issues that is going to continue to cause problems for supporters of liberal, “progressive” ideas. The muslim, homosexual, trans and women’s communities will be odds for a variety of reasons. We have already seen a couple of issues flair and as time goes on these issues will be the only thing the conservative communities witness.

Izzy Montague is one of several parents who complained after their children were allegedly forced to take part in a gay Pride event held at Heavers Farm Primary School in south-east London last June.
She claims that she was treated dismissively and victimised after complaining about the nature of the event and the school’s policy of not allowing parents to opt their children out.
Mrs Montague has now launched a formal legal challenge against the school and Croydon Council alleging breach of her parental rights, victimisation and harassment by the school.
A separate complaint lodged against the Secretary of State for Education, Damian Hinds, asks him to “use his authority to remedy the pervasive nature of LGBT proselytism within Heavers Farm Primary School”.
Mrs Montague said: “After I complained about my young child being forced to take place in an event that goes against our Christian beliefs, the school’s attitude towards me changed completely. I know other parents who are afraid to speak up because of how the school has treated me.
“It was like being bullied. They stopped treating me like any other parent but were antagonistic towards me. I believe that they retaliated against me by unreasonably excluding me from the premises, victimising my child and not taking my safeguarding concerns seriously.
