Since the [Harry] Hammond case just over a decade ago, the British courts have become a battleground for the clash of secular and Christian viewpoints.
The battle has been almost universally one way as the rights of Christians, in terms of the ability to practise their faith in the public sphere, have been eroded to the point where they have virtually no protection.
The cases that I have been instructed in are alarming- and it’s not just the “little people”: health workers or junior civil servants. It’s also the top accountant being told he’s lost his job because a public authority disapproves of his church’s website.
thank you for publishing this. It is a real issue. If these decisions are allowed to pass in European courts, they will also occur in common law countries, including the USA.
