>> In a victory for free speech, [a Professor of Political Sociology at Bristol University] David Miller recently won his Employment Appeal Tribunal. This confirms that anti-Zionism qualifies as a protected philosophical belief under UK equality law...

>> The tribunal found that Miller’s anti-Zionist beliefs are genuinely held; amount to a belief rather than an opinion; … have attained a level of cogency, seriousness, cohesion and importance; are worthy of respect; are not incompatible with human dignity; and not conflict with the fundamental rights of others.

>> … It accepted that Miller simply took issue with Jewish domination over a land with a substantial non-Jewish population... that it’s coherent to describe such an ideology as “racist”.
