"being fired for your sexuality is, in the UK at least, grossly illegal and would result in a decent payout at tribunal - (and in a tribunal you dont have to prove beyond all reasonable doubt, they just come down on one side or the other). Maybe things work differently.. but if the law doesnt protect people from being sacked for being homosexual, the law is inadequate."
This is a bit bothersom. What stops a homosexual who has been fired, from claiming "discrimination" of sexuality for his reason for the dismissal. There very well could be a legitimate reason for the firing. Yet the person is giving the means to sue and doesn't have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt? To me this would scare employers from firing a openly gay individual for legitimate reasons because they fear said invididual from seeking retribution.
