A U.K. woman fired for speaking out against transgender and sex education lessons taught at her son's Church of England primary school won an appeal Friday after a judge overturned a previous ruling upholding her dismissal.

Kristie Higgs said she was initially fired from her role as a teaching assistant at the Farmor's School in Fairford, Gloucestershire, England, after an anonymous person noticed her Facebook posts speaking out against her son's school's plan to introduce books containing transgender ideology and reported the posts to the head teacher.

Though the school says otherwise, she maintains the firing was an attack on her Christian faith.

And she still doesn’t actually get justice since the case goes back to the tribunal for rehearing.

Remember that the freakish left who control most major Western nations now are only in power because of the millions of ‘extra’ votes they get from importing non-native peoples into western nations. They are domestic enemies. Traitors. Sold out their countrymen for power and money. They are domestic terrorists committing a reign of communist terror against their own countrymen.

The transgender agenda is not about transgenderism. It’s about destroying the foundation of our civilization.

What does it take for people to realize that using social media is a mistake. It is designed to exploit people’s inner thoughts, and to monetize them. If you do an honest cost to benefit analysis, it is not worth it.

She needs her job back, four years of back pay, and an apology.

If there are 128 different genders, why is it that males are transitioning to fake females and females are transitioning to fake males and not to one of the other 126 alleged genders?

I don’t know but the entire thing has become too confusing. I say we return to just the two, male and female!

If they need “gender affirming” surgery to do so, let’s make it a lobotomy, the old tried and true method of crazy treatment!
