“SAFE” FOR CHILDREN: Cory Bernardi to present petition against same-sex program. Outspoken Australian Liberal senator Cory Bernardi has lashed out at a government-funded “propaganda” program that teaches 11-year-olds about gay and lesbian issues.

He said it was alarming the government was contributing $8 million to a program that bullies and intimidates children if they don’t comply with the LGBTI agenda.

He said it was inappropriate for 11-year-olds to be invited to imagine they were in a same-sex relationship, or had no genitals.
