Black & Anor v Wilkinson - justification must involve convincing and weighty reasons

Not an employment law case, but nonetheless an important decision on the ongoing tussle between respect for religious views and non-discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation. For an earlier case - with a similar outcome in the County Court - see Hall & Anor v Bull & Anor, Bristol CC 4th January 2011. However, with this decision comes Court of Appeal authority on the matter.
