It’s a confusing headline, but not quite confusing enough to get me to give the Daily Mail a click
It’s not really „on environmental grounds“, it’s on grounds of discrimination based on a philosophical belief. The court found that her belief in environmentalism wasn’t actually very strong and believed she just wanted the money.
https://www.gov.uk/employment-tribunal-decisions/mrs-h-bannerman-v-the-land-restoration-trust-3306483-slash-2024 – Interim relief judgement. Around para 44+ is the most relevant part (to the headline at least)
The respondents got her to admit that she was perfectly willing to compromise her beliefs when it suited her.
„over claims that she was discriminated against for her belief in social and environmental justice“
🙄
I bet she’s a delight.
This sounds like the “environmental officer” at my last job. She would go around the office, telling people off for not recycling, or for not using public transport for work travel or for not cycling to work.
Yet, she never cycled to work, always drove. She always took the train for work, (always took longer and often coincided with visiting friends ), but she nearly always flew home to Europe, was a vegan for a couple of weeks, but decided it wasn’t for her and ate meat every day.
Now, none of the above would be too bad. But when you look at her LinkedIn, she’s made an entire career out of being an “environmentalist”, she was earning close to £60k when I left, with only two years in the job since leaving uni doing a design degree. And now she’s recently been promoted because of the good work she’s been doing. It’s an absolute con as far as I can tell, doesn’t improve the company, except maybe it’s environmental image.
