Dont believe the adverts. This "cancer" jab is basically only any good for young girls who have loads of unprotected sex before they are 18. It is a well known fact ( just check medical sites )

NEW LABOUR are basically suggesting to young kids that they go out and have unprotected sex rather than educate kids that waiting for the right person and using barrier protection is what is responsible and the right moral thing to do.

It makes my stomach turn to see 12 year old girls pictured in the adverts as if having this jab was like buying the latest High School Musical album.

I totally respect this ONE school for standing up to this.

If the GOVERNMENT want to legalise sex for 12 and 13 year olds then why dont they come out and say it.

This injection is only necessary for a child that is going to be sexually active. It is an expensive propaganda exercise that once again legalises Child Abuse.

Cant we let our kids be kids any more ?

I have also heard that some schools may boycott the CRB ENHANCED checks because they are too full of hearsay to be accurate anymore thus making the situation WORSE instead of better. Good teachers are being turned down for jobs because they are the ones who keep good discipline and who attract the majority of "allegations". Thus we are seeing loads of excellent teachers disappear from teaching and nursery work because of this unlawful document.

If someone is convicted of an offence then it should be on a CRN check. But surely only cautions should be on the Enhanced Section and not invididual complaints by disgruntled people.

I have seen on some forums postings by people who are threatening teachers with "allegations" to ruin their careers ( and these were serious legal forums ) . New Labour have wrecked Education.

How did I know it would be a religious school, even before clicking the link? Must be developing psychic powers in my old age. Hardly a case of "the people" fighting back, is it?

There is validity in your arguments, BR, but some pragmatism is required. Kids should be taught responsibility for their actions, but no-one can ever stop all of them giving into their natural urges, and denying them a vaccination which will save lives is irresponsible.

Are faith schools themselves not a form of child abuse? Indoctrinating the youth, killing off individual thought and replacing it with ancient superstitious religious scripture. I think so.

All schools indoctrinate end of.

Whether it is a faith school or not they all have their "ethos" Take a top public school like Eton or Harrow - just because they are not Faith schools does not mean they don't turn out a "certain type" of student.

Even home education would be biased towards the beliefs of the Parents.

So basically it is not really child abuse ! Unless it is being done against their will and as far as I am aware kids choose their Secondary Schools these days.

Therefore if you choose a Roman Catholic School it would follow that you would agree with the stand this school has taken on this jab. And that would be fair - in the same way a Jewish school would insist no non Kosher food was served etc.

People should be allowed to have beliefs - even if you we dont necessarily agree with them. To suggest that these beliefs are abuse is too strong a word. Yes children will have a biased upbringing - but I would say unless they are brought up in a closed community they are likely to be able to exercise some freewill.

After all we see today a Vicar in Wales convicted of Child Pornography charges. He exercised his free will outside of what you and I would think his beliefs would support. Therefore, i think the jab should be a matter of choice - not pushed down the throats of kids where they are learning.

I might add that I refused every jab at school in my secondary years when offered. That is because I had the freewill even back then to realise that education came first and my Doctor would advise me about my health - not my teachers or the Nanny state - neither of them are professionals.

It is like asking an electrician to do a plumbing job or a brain surgeon to do a prolapse. You deal with the expert where possible.

Our government has set itself up as the expert on EVERYTHING when in fact they do not understand ANYTHING.

If you read the article you will find they claim it is not a moral stand.

Your point is moot.

The article is written by the BBC. If you have listened to debates on say Radio 2 or 5 Live you will have heard the real story.

In addition 30% of parents have refused the jab nationally.

This is people power.

The majority of calls I heard on the Radio 2 phone in were supportive of the jab if it were done outside schools and was a free choice.

We are seeing advertising pushing people into having jabs they dont need.

I take it you realise that the jab is not against Cervical Cancer it is against a Sexually Transmitted disease.

Therefore for the majority of girls - especially under 16 - it is quite inappropriate and unecessary. Unless New Labour are actively encouraging Children to have sex under the age of 16 years old - in which case they should re-write the laws regarding consent.

The younger the jab is administered the higher the success rate BR. It has nothing to do with New Labour encouraging under age sex. Appropriate and necessary in my book.
