Prime Minister Scott Morrison should borrow from Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ playbook and take a strong stand on parental rights, according to Christian advocacy organisation FamilyVoice Australia.

“Many Christians are disappointed with the Prime Minister’s failure to deliver on religious freedom and he should not take their votes for granted a second time around,” said FamilyVoice spokesman Greg Bondar.

“Taking a strong stand on parental rights like Ron DeSantis is doing in Florida is one way in which Scott Morrison can win back disillusioned Christian voters.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in the last fortnight enacted legislation which expands parents’ oversight of their children’s education and prohibits the teaching of gender identity and sexual orientation from kindergarten through third grade.

“Parents are fed up with their kids being brainwashed with radical LGBTIQA+ ideology,” said Greg Bondar.

“Age-appropriate, non-pornographic and non-LGBTIQA+ literature must become the new norm.

“Kids should be able to receive an education without being subjected to this nonsense.

“The responsibility and right of parents to guide their children on matters of sex and sexuality must be reserved for the parent.

“This issue is a huge electoral opportunity for the Prime Minister which he should run with,” added Bondar.
