The Tory children’s chief today came out against a ban on parents smacking their kids - saying it would be “nannying”.
Nadhim Zahawi said his “strong view” was that “we have got to trust parents on this - and parents being able to discipline their children is something that they should be entitled to do."
There was a "very big difference" between a "light smack on the arm" and child abuse, the Education Secretary told Times Radio.
