MP’s sexual abstinence bill withdrawn
Fortunately for all, Nadine Dorries MP and her conviction politics hit the buffers. No doubt, however, she won’t disappoint with some new Palinesque policy initiative to replace the abstinence for all doctrine now binned.
MID BEDS MP Nadine Dorries’ parliamentary bill calling for sexual abstinence to be taught to girls in schools has been withdrawn.
The MP, whose constituency includes Toddington and Harlington, would have required schools to offer extra lessons including advice on abstinence to girls aged 13 to 16.

But it was removed by from the list of private members’ bills due to be heard by MPs.
