Maya Forstater wins three claims in employment tribunal following trans row

An employment tribunal ruled on Wednesday that Maya Forstater suffered direct discrimination when the Centre for Global Development - where she was a visiting fellow - did not renew her contract.

Forstater lost her job after tweeting that transgender women could not change their biological sex.

She brought a test case to establish that gender-critical views are protected under the Equality Act, losing that case in 2019, before she was successful in an appeal last year.

The case was sent back to the tribunal, who this week upheld two complaints of direct discrimination and one of victimisation.

Two other complaints of direct discrimination and one of victimisation were unsuccessful.
