A planned visit to the school by ultra-Zionist MP Damien Egan, who visited Israel during its genocide in Gaza, was cancelled after parents said they would keep their children home rather than expose them to Egan’s extremism. Teachers had said they would wear Palestine t-shirts during the visit.
Egan’s allies claimed this ‘endangered’ him, while fellow Israel fanatic, front-bencher Steve Reed, implied Egan was blocked for being Jewish. The Starmer government, along with state and corporate ‘mainstream’ media, have amplified Reed’s dishonesty to demand action.
