You appear to have misunderstood my thread…
Emma really is so good at this.
Also, the Daily Mail are arseholes.
You probably knew both of these things.
Another cracking debunk from @monkemma.bsky.social :

Point taken.
I did wonder about that part, but ultimately with character limits and given the context, I hoped it was clear that I was addressing the type of person who was outraged that their child might be affected by religious guidance meant for others.
Tricky balance!
Oh, she is brilliant! Go on... get comfortable, settle down with a mug of cocoa and read her excellent and clear explanation!
Another debunking by the wonderful Emma Monk. Please read.
Can we just skip to the part where we make @monkemma.bsky.social the arbiter of everything?
Because she is so good at this stuff.
Another absolute classic.
Another excellent thread from the brilliant @monkemma.bsky.social who is doing a great job at highlighting this sort of nonsense. So-called news media should not be allowed to mislead like this.

Another unmissable read from the excellent Emma Monk.
Another cracking post unpicking the warped world of RW media.
Read it and buy Emma a coffee so she can keep on shining the light.
Ah, makes sense why they downplay the Jewish aspects of the guidance…
Great thread from @monkemma.bsky.social . 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Excellent from Emma ...
Ha ha - I do!
@mrjamesob.bsky.social Here’s an unhinged headline and a thorough, comprehensive debunking by the superb @monkemma.bsky.social for you. There can’t be many better examples of the duplicity, bias and Islamophobia of much of the British media available than this.

Oh yeh, I learnt a lot about the Plymouth Bretheren today in that document!
Outstanding work from @monkemma.bsky.social here. Wish this kind of debunking was widespread and mainstream. Too many people read the bllx the fash press pumps out.
Monk Debunks, excellently as usual.
The Daily Mail in full nostalgia mode, behaving exactly as it did 90 years ago.
Please read this whole thread. @monkemma.bsky.social You're a breath of fresh air!
This morning at the Co-op I asked a woman buying The Daily Heil what the paper wanted her to be angry about today. She didn't respond but .......
In any meaningful sense, the daily mail is lying. Intentionally.
We need meaningful regulation ... but would be abused by any given government
I know - so disappointing!
Epic thread from Emma debunking a right wing fever dream...
I keep meaning to cover the “children identifying as cats” nonsense!
So, onwards and upwards🤷♀️
I'll keep highlighting the hypocrisy, the inconsistencies, the missing context and the downright lies!

We have a real problem in this country with how the press portrays and writes about Muslims.
This story is just another example of that.
It will be no surprise if you follow my work that the Telegraph and Daily Mail are two of the worst offenders🙄

These guidelines also cover food, clothing, jewellery, religious symbols, fasting, festivals, RE teaching, sex and health education too.
But these topics feature all the other religions too, and not just Muslims...
So they don't make the headlines.
And GB News don't lose their 💩 over them

Essex guidelines again:
Not having physical contact between the sexes isn't just a Muslim thing. It's an orthodox-Jewish thing too.
Different religions have different rules.
And asking schools to be aware and sensitive to that should NOT be newsworthy, particularly not in a negative way
Finally, Dance and Drama
Again, just be aware of the cultural sensitivities of asking a child to play a part that compromises their faith or asking for physical contact between the sexes.
