Paul Kelly on the bad guys capturing our institutions i.e. education.

Paul Kelly speaks plainly against Safe Schools deception.

The Turnbull government’s lightning-fast review of the program was delivered to Education Minister Simon Birmingham’s department yesterday… It is guaranteed to become a test of Liberal Party values under Malcolm Turnbull. Tony Abbott, who did nothing about the program as PM, has called it “social engineering” and wants the funds scrapped....
