This person is an advertisement for home schooling if ever I saw one.

A primary school headmaster who replaced house names honouring historical figures such as Lord Nelson with those of modern liberal campaigners idolised by the woke such as Greta Thunberg previously shared a ‘joke’ about Gavin Williamson’s severed head online.

Lee Hill condemned the ‘despicable deeds’ of ‘oppressive’ British heroes Sir Walter Raleigh, Admiral Nelson and Francis Drake and axed them from the house system at Howden Junior School in East Yorkshire after one former pupil complained.

He replaced their names with figures including footballer Marcus Rashford, who campaigned for free school meals, human rights activist Malala Yousafzai and US poet Amanda Gorman after a vote by pupils.

Mr Hill’s Twitter account shows he has been a vocal critic of Education Secretary Gavin Williamson, previously describing the Cabinet minister a ‘coward,’ and a ‘bully’. And in one tweet he even shared another teacher’s joke calling for Tory MP’s head.

The meme showed a ‘no entry sign’ and warned people to ‘only interrupt me if you’re bringing me the vaccine’, ‘the head of Gavin Williamson’, or ‘chocolate’.

His role is education, not indoctrination. One look at his grinning mug tells you all you need to know. If I had children in that school, I’d be taking them out, tout suite. What an obnoxious creep.

‘During the Black Lives Matter protests, I received a passionate and brave email from a former pupil.

‘This pupil not only educated me about the history of the three house names – that sat on our website, in our hall and were raised as ambassadors for our school – but also explained the impact of seeing these figures – who have links to slavery, oppression and racism – had on her during her time at our school.

‘Not only a brave email to send to a white male in a position of power but also an email that set off a chain of events.’

Christ almighty. This man is supposed to be a professional educator. I f this is true, then his level of ignorance is staggering. The correct response to that kind of email is to bin it and ignore it. Clearly teacher training isn’t what it used to be. We are going to see a whole generation of young people who have had their minds poisoned by noxious ideologues like this. He has no place whatsoever being in charge of children’s’ education.

    • I have no time for vegans – a bunch of sanctimonious hypocrites who hate people and love animals. They don’t buy products that “exploit” animals, but they’re quite happy buying products made by exploited human workers, such as smart phones and tablets assembled by people in Asia working under poor conditions.

  1. “We are going to see a whole generation of young people who have had their minds poisoned by noxious ideologues like this.”

    I think it was over at David Thompson’s blog that someone pointed out that ‘Selfie Generation’ have no compunction whatsoever about telling a lie, even less shame about being caught in one, because they’ve been schooled to believe that what you feel is what matters.

  2. This ‘former pupil’ is probably as real as all those ‘my six year old’ mythical beings seen on Twatter.
