The normalsation of it was by people of her era. Many still believe it. Obviously the changes of the next generation in outlook have altered since then. You need to talk to her though directly for her current opinion - whether she's seen the light or not or a journo needs to do it. But the innuendo that "socialists" are rounding up kids for nefarious sexual interest these days is not verified by what you've presented here, is it?

I found a recent Daily Mail article (from August 2026) about this topic, along with Sandra’s original article from 2005. In the recent piece, no journalist appears to have asked her directly what she now thinks about the points she made in 2005. Instead, they spoke to other party members. Some said they weren’t even aware of the article; others said they don’t support the views expressed in it. Her original piece contains a lot of obfuscation, including frequent “what about this type of child abuse” deflections.She would have been about 60 when she wrote it. In the 1970s, during her heyday, few people publicly questioned relationships between school pupils and their teachers, for example.I’d like to know whether she agreed to have the article taken down, and whether her views have changed.
