A tax expert who lost out on a job after saying people cannot change their biological sex has been awarded £100,000 compensation by an employment tribunal. In a judgment handed down on Friday, three judges at a London tribunal awarded Ms Forstater compensation of £91,500 and interest of £14,904.31. Ms Forstater told The Times on Friday: “I’m happy it’s over and happy I got significant compensation. Ms Forstater previously took her case to an employment tribunal on the grounds this constituted discrimination against her beliefs. Employment judge James Tayler originally dismissed her claim but High Court judge Mr Justice Choudhury later said the judgment had “erred in law”.
