At Millthorpe, we will be dressing the outside of the building in rainbow bunting and rainbow flags and staff and students are invited to wear a rainbow piece of clothing, accessory or sticker, if they wish to do so. Students must wear full school uniform but can wear an additional piece of rainbow clothing or a rainbow accessory on top of their uniform. In addition, they will have the opportunity to collect a rainbow sticker and/or rainbow hand stamp from school, to show their support for equality between lesbian, gay, bisexual and straight people in York.

    Perhaps the students would be better of being taught that pride is one of the Seven Deadly Sins. In Holy Scripture, pride is not a positive attribute.

  2. Undergroundpewster says:

    Sad days when the rainbow has been co-opted as an endorsement of our fallenness.

    Thank you Ralph – this is what I have been saying all along. PRIDE is still a sin!

    Elves, this seems to launch on a loop a recording on the issue from Radio Berkshire. I cannot find any way to stop it. It is most annoying. If it is something engineered by you folks …. please don’t do it again!
