Description

A primary school teacher in London was fired for stating that Britain is a Christian state and Islam is a minority religion. He was also reprimanded for telling students not to wash their feet in the boys toilets. The teacher is now suing the local authority, backed by the Free Speech Union, arguing that he was unfairly dismissed for expressing a factual truth. Meanwhile, a man in South Wales was acquitted of inciting racial hatred but banned from coaching his daughters team due to a child protection concern. These incidents raise concerns about free speech and safeguarding concerns, particularly when expressing certain viewpoints.
