It’s the row that’s engulfed a primary school in Birmingham. For the past seven weeks, Anderton Park Primary has seen demonstrations outside its gates from parents angry at the teachers for including same-sex relationships on the syllabus. The protesters claim that they should be able to use their own religion to teach their children. We’re joined by Shakeel Afsar who is spearheading the campaign, alongside Melissa Thompson, who says the protest makes ‘her blood boil’.

Absolutely disgraceful from Join Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, let the man finish. 3 against 1, non stop bullying and cutting off Mr Afsar.

[@LittleMonkey425]

They kept cutting him off cause he just wasn’t making sense, he kept contradicting himself

[@abumaliha7266]

The irony , '...you are poisoning our children..."

I just deeped this interview was done when Phillip was still in the closest 😂😂

[@adamnelson8817]

I think Shak spoke very well in a fluent and respectful manner.

[@SOUTHREDDEVIL]

Why turn the comments on 3/4 years later ? 😂

[@rahibmiah]

Coz they watched the podcast of minted minds 😂😂😂

[@ShakeelAfsar]

😂correct

[@DEEANNA88]

There’s a time and a place for everything and I don’t think that educating a young child on LGBT lifestyle belongs in the classroom

[@RationalThinker-ek8hw]

Some beliefs are not tolerant at all for other religions. Govt should read religions before allowing these religions in this country to flourish undettered.

[@Liam-vx8vn]

This man is a true champion of how to explain how people misinterpret your intentions and meanings. Then they talk over you, don’t let you talk. There is no impartiality on this.

[@ewayjeng1]

They need to stop force feeding things that children do not yet grasp or comprehend

[@lindaharris2805]

I know right?? how are kids meant to understand Islam at such a young age, they should be allowed to be kids until they're at least 12!?

[@SOUTHREDDEVIL]

Why have they turned the comments on now ?

[@RationalThinker-ek8hw]

Some group will be stuck with old religious beliefs. Govt is not here to satisfy everyone. Govt is there to look for modernity and supporting science and technology. Those who feel bad because of their own belief system which is old and archaic. They should learn the new ways of life and shed any old fixated ideas.

[@andybray9791]

[@user-mc1yd9bp5x]

Old is gold new is poo

[@darkthemesociety]

It's Schofields body language for me.

[@JzeeAkhtarYT]

Because if the minted minds podcast

[@ChrysanthsMum]

Shak did a wonderful job in spite of the show. Parents care about their children. Parents should have a say.

[@andybray9791]

That’s what the Hungarian pm orban is doing full parental rights in education

[@daviedovey]

Shakeel Afsar makes Phillip Schofield look like Andrew Tate

[@Aarrrii]

Well done! The man spoke sense and the mental patient next to him cannot accept it!

[@karlmunford7000]

A little too much fervour from Scofield for my liking, I wonder what thats all about? *Methinks The Lady Doth Protest Too Much* 😲

[@RationalThinker-ek8hw]

Keep religion at home in this modern scientific role.

[@daviedovey]

there's a good reason why the West is rich free democratic and powerful - renaissance, reformation, enlightenment, reason, industry, science, democracy - unlike some places which just got stuck in the Middle Ages but from where people want to escape to the West from

[@freeyourmind7538]

Some people have a mum and dog 🤷🏾‍♂️ YES!!! These same clown presenters actually married off a lady and a dog on their show😂 So now we must confuse kids even more and say we are tolerant 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@hi-pg9bp]

Well done shak

[@andybray9791]

Should scrap lgb… lessons and straight in primary. Luckily nations like Poland and Hungary havent decayed like us. Holly willoughlby and Philip Schofield deserve to be sent to be other countries and leaders would give them severe consequences

[@daviedovey]

is that why so many British people are emigrating to Poland and Hungary?

They dont seek tolerance but acceptace of their lifestyle. What is tought to my child is my busness. What you do in bed with other people is your business.
