Christian Lobby, deputy premier pushback over Pussay Poppins drag storytime event at Launceston Library

Tasmania's education minister is resisting calls to cancel a book reading by a drag queen at a state-run library, even as the state's deputy premier declared he "wouldn't be taking my children".

The Launceston Library is hosting Drag Storytime next Wednesday in celebration of TasPRIDE and World Pride 2023.

The event, aimed at two- to five-year-olds, is free and has already sold out.

It has been promoted as a chance for toddlers to "frock up, dress up and throw on a tiara" with Tasmanian drag performer Pussay Poppins.

This is just my opinion.
