Cindy Gallop, founder and CEO of MakeLoveNotPorn, has partnered with Labour Party MP Samantha Niblett to promote comprehensive sex education in the UK through a campaign dubbed the "summer of sex". The initiative aims to take the shame out of sex and educate people about healthy, respectful, and joyful relationships.
The campaign is set to kick off this summer, with Niblett securing a parliamentary debate on the issue of lifelong sexual education scheduled for autumn. According to Politics Home, the Labour government's crackdown on "harmful online content" has sparked concerns that comprehensive sex education may be compromised.
Background and Motivations
Niblett, who was first elected as an MP in 2024, is a stalwart of the Blue Labour wing of the party. In a series of LinkedIn posts, she wrote about her desire to take control of Britishness and promote positive relationships. Niblett has also expressed concerns about the impact of online content on young people.
As reported by AVN, the campaign is part of a broader effort to tackle violence against women and girls and support boys and men in understanding their roles in society. The initiative aims to educate people about what healthy relationships look like in real life for every consenting person across the UK.
Exhibition and Debate Plans
Niblett hopes to have an exhibition on sex education at the Palace of Westminster, in addition to securing a parliamentary debate on the issue. The exhibition will provide a platform for people to share their experiences and learn about comprehensive sex education.
