British-Nigerian politician, Kemi Badenoch has warned that teaching children they can be born in the wrong body is 'harmful'.
Kemi, who serving as Secretary of State for Business and Trade in the UK, spoke out after the Government launched a long-awaited crackdown on the spread of 'contested and confused' gender ideology in schools.
She said the worst of the 'toxic' debate over trans rights has been played out in classrooms, with parents shut out as pupils have changed their names and uniforms.
Writing in the Daily Mail, Mrs Badenoch pledges that guidelines published yesterday will protect young people and provide teachers with much-needed clarity.
She also vowed to fight for free speech, saying those who seek to 'force' terminology on others, compelling them to follow an ideology, show a lack of tolerance.
Mrs Badenoch admits the guidance will be opposed by activist groups who are already telling schools to ignore it. And she insists to frustrated Tory colleagues that tougher action could not be taken without time-consuming new laws.
'Unlike the opposition Labour Party, this Government does not duck the hard questions or the difficult issues. Teachers and school leaders have been asking for guidance in this space and today they have it,' she writes.
