🚨 BREAKING: MAJOR FREE SPEECH WIN! The Court of Appeal has ruled in Higgs v Farmor’s School, finding in favour of Kristie Higgs, a school administrator who was dismissed for expressing traditional Christian views about marriage and sexuality. The FSU intervened in the case and successfully persuaded the Court to adopt most of our key arguments — a landmark moment in the fight for free speech at work. Higgs is the most important belief discrimination case since @MForstater's victory in the Employment Appeal Tribunal. It now provides authoritative guidance on how the law protects the expression of religious and philosophical belief in the workplace and beyond. 🔹 Disrepute is not enough to justify dismissal — employers must prove actual harm. 🔹 Tribunals must assess beliefs objectively, not rely on subjective activist complaints. 🔹 Stereotyping beliefs is discriminatory — a crucial judicial clarification. 🔹 Robust speech remains protected — the threshold for ‘objectionable’ expression is high. This ruling strengthens protections for those who express lawful but unorthodox views, ensuring employers cannot outsource their decision-making to activists or ideological pressure. Huge thanks to our legal team: Ben Cooper KC and Spencer Keen of @OldSqChambers, and @ElliotHammerSR of Branch Austin McCormick. A crucial victory for workplace free speech. More to follow. 👊👊👊
