Former magistrate Richard Page | YouTube/ Christian Concern
An appeals court has upheld the firing of a British magistrate for telling media that he believes adopted children are better off with a mother and father instead of same-sex couples. The Christian man says he will take his case to the Supreme Court.
Richard Page, who is from the Headcorn area of England’s Kent County, was suspended by the NHS in 2016, a year after he shared on national television his Christian views on parenting following a same-sex adoption case.
“The basis on which he was dismissed was entirely lawful and involved no breach of his human rights,” said Lord Justice Underhill of the Court of Appeal on Friday, according to BBC.

Updated A company hailed as the UK s top tech employer tried to diddle a former trainee out of £2,000 in unlawfully withheld back pay – and a judge was startled when he discovered how Sparta Global treats its new hires.
The London-headquartered firm, which boasts of delivering top business and technology professionals , in fact forces its trainees to spend three months without pay before locking them into a two-year contract.
If these so-called Spartans want out before that two-year period ends, the company threatens them with a £22,000 training fee , as Croydon Employment Tribunal found.
