A woman who claims she was unlawfully discriminated against by her former employer for her beliefs on sex and gender has had her case dismissed by an employment tribunal.

Sara Morrison, who believes people cannot change their biological sex, had brought a case against Belfast Film Festival (BFF) where she worked as an inclusion and audience development co-ordinator.

Support from JK Rowling

Morrison had received funding for her case from Harry Potter author JK Rowling.

    When being “gender critical” is brought to legal action, it is not typically not about your internally held beliefs, it’s about harassing others and discrimination.

    If a white supremacist had a firmly held belief black people were inferior and they held a role in HR or talent acquisition, they would be unfit for the role and should be fired. Similarly if they were found to harass black people in the workplace.

    One thing the gender criticals, like white supremacists and religious fundamentalists don’t understand is this:

    Your political views do not outweigh the rights of others
