Section 28 meant my mum had to pretend to be my auntie all throughout my schooling. That& #39;s what the Tories and GCs are clamouring to bring back.
Imagine being six years old and knowing youve got to call your mum auntie at school.
Imagine finding out yours was considered a "pretended family relationship".
This is what Lynn Truss or whatever her fucking name is wants.

S28 came in the year I started school and was abolished the year after I left.
It& #39;s 31 years since my first brush with that awful law and I still haven& #39;t healed from it.

I still daren& #39;t tell you her name but she& #39;s one of the few teachers I remember.
It was not ok that pastoral care was denied or given illicitly. It is not on that I was denied two parents in the eyes of my school.
It is not ok. Don& #39;t bring it back.

I still call her auntie, by the way. Only now everyone does. She& #39;s everyone& #39;s Auntie F*****. That& #39;s just how lovely she is.
And she was denied the right to name her relationship with her partner and her child.

(Her initial is F. It& #39;s a shame that that makes it look like her name is Aunite Fuck in the tweet above)
