BRITAIN IS FIGHTING BACK…...

Scores of officials from the government fan out across the country to check on what parents are teaching their children…..what can Tony Blair’s minions be worried about? Hatred for the pigs and dogs that are the Jews and infidels? The culture of alcohol that produces England’s “yobs” and embarrasses every decent Briton at most soccer matches? The “tart-culture” and fatherlessness that ravages English society’s family life?

No, no…..it’s all about the nursery rhymes, don’t you see? You think I’m kidding, don’t you? You think that someone in England started a rival to The Onion…
I wish…..

Parents could be forced to go to special classes to learn to sing their children nursery rhymes, a minister said.

Those who fail to read stories or sing to their youngsters threaten their children’s future and the state must put them right, Children’s Minister Beverley Hughes said.

Their children’s well-being is at risk ‘unless we act’, she declared.

And Mrs Hughes said the state would train a new ‘parenting workforce’ to ensure parents who fail to do their duty with nursery rhymes are found and ‘supported’.

This in a country where some girls can be forced into marriage to complete strangers, and where imams calling for shari’a law to be applied in certain jurisdictions are given a respectful hearing at the highest levels of government. There’s more.

The call for state intervention in the minute details of family life followed a series of Labour efforts to reduce anti-social behaviour and improve educational standards by imposing rigorous controls on the lives of the youngest children.

Mrs Hughes has established a national curriculum to set down how babies are taught to speak in childcare from the age of three months.

Her efforts have gone alongside a push by other ministers to determine exactly how parents treat their children down to how they should brush their teeth.

Tony Blair has backed the idea of ‘fasbos’ - efforts to identify and correct the lives of children who are likely to fail even before they are born - and new laws to compel parents to attend parenting classes are on the way.

This autumn is likely to see an extension of parenting orders that can force parents to attend parenting classes so that they can be used on the say so of local councils against parents.

For the first time, parenting orders are likely to be directed against parents whose children have committed no criminal offence.

You just can’t parody the English nanny state any longer…..READ THE WHOLE THING
