UK Green Party guidance tells members to replace "mothers and fathers" with "parents and carers"

The UK Green Party circulated inclusive terminology guidance before its Brighton conference, advising members to say "parents and carers" instead of "mothers and fathers" and warning that repeated or deliberate misuse could be treated as harassment. The party calls it standard equalities training, while critics describe it as language policing. The episode shows an institutional effort to move public vocabulary away from the male-female and parental order Scripture presents in Genesis 1:27 and 2:24, though it is one party's internal guide, not national law.
