Columnist: New Guides’ oath is ‘secular totalitarianism’

Writing in the Daily Mail, Melanie Phillips said the oath which replaces “love my God” with a pledge to “be true to myself” is now “actively discriminatory” against Christians.
In June this year Girl Guiding UK adopted a secular promise for the first time since the movement began in 1910.
