I'm amazed he was able to win that.

Honestly, I don't understand how he did. Baking cakes for everyone at the office except two people you don't like is a childish stunt that is just guaranteed to cause workplace drama. Surely, deliberately causing tensions is valid grounds to be shown the door?

It makes me wonder if the Judge has a son, and is itching for any opportunity to turn discrimination laws around on people.

I'm not. Protections for employees are rather strong in Europe, even the UK. He would have won based on wrongful dismissal even if there were no discrimination protection.

It may warrant a reprimand, but it is not nearly severe enough to justify dismissal. There have been cases with far worse behavior where courts found in favor of the employee.

Does it always have to be something weird? Can someone not just win based on the fact that it was wrongful dismissal.

That's a likely culprit. I know a lot of guys began to demand better treatment of women when they had girls. It should be the same for men, but somehow that slipped by.

what makes this especially surprising is that it's the UK. the courts in the UK are notoriously pro-women.

edit: but then again, this isn't really a loss for a female defendant as much as a win for a male defendant

It is a childish stunt but the judge seemed to indicate that they went straight to firing without any like warnings

They really had it in for him, hopefully he gets a big payday. Sounds like it was what they accuse male dominated work environments of doing to women.

The one thing the left is good at is projection.

Of the Valentine's Day biscuit incident, Employment Judge Sarah George said:

You're on the side of Oppressor gender judges now?

I'm sorry, I'm not going to praise someone who wants to torture me and then slit my throat, while laughing at my pain along with her fellow oppressors.

I did not take you for such a strong supporter of the #MoreFeminineWay

Well, you didn't really, did you? If it had been the other way around, you would have said "FEMALE JUDGE denies suit". If it had been a male judge, you wouldn't have said a thing either way. Sort of a BLM thing where you only get upset depends on who does it.

It's good that you are giving credit insofar as you do. But how does that square with your opinion that women are "oppressors" and "Nazis", that they want to kill you and slit your throat?

I don't get it. What's missing? Is he openly gay or something? Does he have other non-obvious oppression points?

How does a white male get justice when the accusers are women in current year? With a female judge no less.

Europe is a bit behind the US. Give it 10 years and it will probably be completely impossible.

Europe is ahead of the US so is Canada. The only people who think otherwise are coping

Don't fool yourself. The courts are corrupt, the same way a clock is broken. It still gets it right twice a day.
