Perhaps the best case study in leftism run amuck is England, which in
two generations has gone from Churchill and churches to hate-speech
laws and halal ritual. For example, in recent times the U.K. has treated
us to stories about a school guide stating that toddlers who say “yuck” in response to
foreign food may have bigoted tendencies, about a 66-year-old pet shop
owner and grandmother forced to wear an electronic tracking bracelet
because she sold a goldfish to a 14-year-old, and a police officer who
was harassed because he wouldn’t don a pink ribbon to
mark a homosexual event.
And, now, in a case of Lord of the Flies meets 1984,
Britain’s Ofsted (Office for Standards in Education) is mandating that
head teachers consult students on changes to school policy. In fact,
children now have so much power in some British schools that they are
allowed to sit on teacher interview panels, ask applicants ridiculous
questions and destroy their chances for career advancement. Reporting on
the story for the Daily Mail, Sarah Harris provides an example of just such a case, that of a
teacher who was denied a position because the children felt he was “too
strict.” Harris quotes the educator as saying, “I felt upset that two
out of three of the adults liked me enough but that the pupils had that
much sway.”
