County Court judgment on alleged race and religion discrimination and victimisation in Conservative Party candidate approval and disciplinary proceedings.
Arif v Baker & Ors [2026] EWCC 14 (02 April 2026)
County Court Equality Act claim arising from a Conservative Party dispute over approval, selection, discipline, and re-expulsion. The court addressed discrimination, victimisation, and limitation.
The court held that none of the claims were academic, that the Equality Act and false imprisonment claims should remain in the Administrative Court due to their novelty, complexity, and public importance, and that the Defendant was granted leave to amend her defence to raise new statutory arguments. The trial was adjourned for further directions.
Source excerpt
The Court of Appeal refused to reopen a permission decision in an employment discrimination case, holding there was no inconsistency with Higgs and no CPR 52.30 basis.
The claimant failed to prove on the balance of probabilities that her cognitive issues arose in consequence of her NF1; therefore, her discrimination and reasonable adjustment claims under the Equality Act 2010 failed. However, the respondent's dismissal process was substantively and procedurally unfair, as it failed to distinguish between misconduct and capability, did not provide adequate procedural safeguards, and did not consider redeployment or updated occupational health evidence, rendering the dismissal unfair.
