Section 28 is a former piece of legislation in the United Kingdom which was introduced in 1986 as part of the Local Government Act 1986. The legislation banned local authorities and schools from teaching and promoting homosexuality in any shape or form alike; also providing a right for teachers not to deal with homophobic bullying. The legislation was introduced by the government of Margaret Thatcher in response to left wing (Labour Party) controlled authorities seeking to deliberately indoctrinate and teach homosexuality to children.
In 2003 the Act was repealed by the government of Tony Blair. Nowadays in Britain, the education system is encouraged to teach, encourage and indoctrinate acceptance of homosexuality to children.[1][2][3]
