Supreme Court rules against Christian registrar
The Supreme Court has ruled against a Christian registrar who was disciplined by Islington Council for refusing to conduct same-sex civil partnerships.
Lillian Ladele claimed she had been discriminated against for refusing to go against her religious conscience.
In 2008 an appeal tribunal overturned a previous decision by an employment tribunal that the north London council had discriminated against her.
The Supreme Court has now refused her permission to challenge that ruling.
Miss Ladele said she might take the case to the European Court of Human Rights.
