Hello All, The No Outsiders campaign to implement equalities legislation in primary schools has always been important to us. The first edition of Spacegirl Pukes was part of the scheme way back in 2005. We want everyone to know that families come in all sizes and shapes, with parents or carers or various genders. The No Outsiders scheme uses completely age-appropriate books to teach about acceptance and diversity in a way that aims to reduce bullying. There is never any sexual content to the books, but just the fact that some families have two mums or two dads and aren't willing to keep that a secret upsets some people. At the time of writing (June 2019) there have been protests in the UK against No Outsiders. That has made us sad, and angry, and sad and more angry. And as the song says, 'anger is an energy' and Spacegirl Pukes illustrator Vanda Carter was infuriated into making this poster stating clearly her position. I love it and we want to share it with you. If I have understood my website construction correctly, you should be able to download this image and print it. It will look good at A4 and I think ok at A3. Please print it as you like and display it where you like. Obviously, don't sell it -- its a community project. We are against all forms of discrimination. Love is love.
