Abstract
Comments on the Court of Appeal decision in Ladele v Islington LBC on whether disciplinary proceedings brought against a registrar whose Christian beliefs caused her to object to civil partnerships and refuse to register them constituted direct and indirect discrimination on the ground of her religious belief. Discusses the court's approach to the clash between the protections against religious discrimination and sexual orientation discrimination, and considers the factors influencing the judgment.
