McBlog by Bob McCoskrie

Today’s episode of McBlog is an interview with abortion survivor Melissa Ohden, who will be speaking at our upcoming Forum on the Family 2024. The Forum on the Family is one of the premier family conferences held each year with international and national speakers and political leaders. This year’s conference will again be held at the Due Drop Events Centre in Manukau City on Friday 5th July which is just over three weeks away. There is also a gala dinner the night before on Thursday 4th. This year’s theme is Protecting the next Generation. It’s time for all of us to push back against the harmful agendas and ideologies being targeted at our children – including the ones in the womb. Once again we have an amazing lineup of speakers from the US, Australia and NZ. And this week – in a special series of McBLOG, we want to introduce you to four of the key speakers who we had a chance to have a quick interview with. Today, it’s abortion survivor Melissa Ohden.

The new Disney “Star Wars” show, “The Acolyte.” has been promoted as the gayest “Star Wars” show yet. A commenter wrote, “Disney keeps doubling down because it would rather engage in political activism than return value.” But it’s not just Disney. Many programmes aimed at children – including even Sesame Street – are promoting gender diversity and sexuality for very young children.

Despite the intention of the new Government coalition to review the radical RSE programme in schools, both the Ministry of Education and InsideOut are going full steam ahead, promoting the guidelines, running courses with teachers, and basically 'giving the bird' to the new government and the Minister of Education. We also show you the shocking training materials that InsideOut use.

The push is on to expand the euthanasia law. We knew it was coming. We knew it was coming when the law was first passed. The slippery slope. But we were told by politicians, the media and the supporters of euthanasia "oh don’t be silly, there’s no slippery slope." It’s taken them less than three years to prove us right.

If you spoke up against the Relationships and Sexuality Education curriculum over the past 12 months – then all we can say is – thank you! You have been heard. There has been huge progress. But we must remain vigilant. Here's an update on the progress - including a car-crash interview from one of the activists.

There are so many 'LGBT'-focused days, campaigns and flags during the year that it may be easier to mark the days when it’s not being showcased. But following on quickly from Pink Shirt Day is the next one being targeted at children - Pride Week. We warn you about the activities, messaging and books being used to sexualise and confuse your children. There's nothing to be proud about when you're sexualising children.

Last weekend, a controversial (according to the Mayor & media) conference was held to talk about gender ideology and the harm it is doing to young people. Despite efforts to 'cancel' the event by activists & some councillors who are only "inclusive" if they agree with you, and who wear pink shirts against bullying except when disagree with you, the conference went ahead with protestors outside for a short time, faeces and urine being thrown on some cops, and the cafe in the venue throwing their toys out of the cot and closing for the day for fear of being.... upset. Here's my very very very controversial speech. Buckle up, my precious.

The name Harrison Butker is trending on social media at the moment. Why? Because the three-time Super Bowl champion NFL kicker who is also a Catholic dared to speak about Catholic teaching at a Catholic school to Catholic students. In the words of Greta Thunberg, "how dare you".

We live in a culture that emphasises personal identity against holistic health – ideology against biology – and we saw a screaming example of that last week when the media trumpeted a tragic case of a teenager who needed counselling and care, not castration and confusion.

The Government is bringing back charter schools, an education model scrapped by the Labour-led coalition in 2017. We speak to Alwyn Poole who, from 2013 - 2018, was involved in founding and running two successful Charter Schools after designing the model and the curriculum.

The pro drugs crowd are back. More than 150 'experts' have signed an open letter to the Government calling for the legalisation of ALL drugs. But most of the "experts" who signed their letter aren't the experts that you're thinking of. Some of them are even from America! (shock, horror!)

You would think that at this time, the Public Service Commission would be concerned about jobs being lost and redundancies and all that sort of important and urgent stuff. But nope – the focus is on counselling, safe spaces and indoctrination for incorrect use of personal pronouns.

A bill called the “Fair Access to Bathrooms Bill” has been introduced as a private members bill to Parliament by NZ First. It's pretty easy to understand, but the media and other opponents of the bill did everything they could to misrepresent it.

Oranga Tamariki has just signalled it’s ready to knock on family doors if they refuse to let their children change gender. A loving family who want to protect their child from confusion, chemicalisation and castration will warrant possible removal of the child from that loving family in the interests of radical gender theory.

Many parents are not aware that, while well-intentioned, Pink Shirt Day (coming up on May 17) is being used by activists to politicise gender theory and sexual identity of school children under the guise of anti-bullying programmes, rather than deal appropriately with the issue of school bullying which we’re all concerned about. Pink Shirt Days are predominantly and have always been about promoting an LGBT-narrative. Here's the proof.

There are calls for the Government to stop funding Jacinda Ardern's Christchurch Call. We agree. The 'Christchurch Call' is being used to ram down certain ideologies and to silence dissenters – especially real dangerous people like 'tradwives'. You know - full time mums who are married and do other weird things. They’re comin' for ya, mum!

The Ministry of Health is reviewing the use of puberty blockers here in NZ – and you won’t believe who they’ve asked to help review the evidence… a cheerleader for “transing” our children!

What do kiwi families think about children trying to change their sex, puberty blockers, and gender ideology in classrooms? A new nationwide poll tells us, but the media have ignored it. You'll soon see why.

The latest abortion statistics make grim and upsetting reading, with a 25% increase in abortions since the decriminalisation of abortion in March 2020 – four years ago. The focus on Maori being able to abort their babies – even late-term – is equally sickening.
