Housing manager demoted over gay marriage Facebook comments wins case
A judge has ruled that bosses at Trafford Housing Trust were wrong to demote a manager who said gay weddings in churches would be “an equality too far”. Adrian Smith, a Christian, made the remark on his personal Facebook page, which was not visible to the general public, outside work time. Mr Smith was supported by The Christian Institute’s Legal Defence Fund. Watch Mike Judge, the Institute’s spokesman, debate the case on Sky News on 16 November 2012.
