Adrian Smith Interview Special

Adrian Smith hit the headlines following an article in the Mail on Sunday revealed that he was going to take his employers to court after they demoted him over a private post he made on facebook. The Christian housing manager from Manchester had read a BBC report about same-sex civil partnerships in churches which prompted him to post a link to the story on his personal facebook followed by the brief comment — ‘an equality too far’. His bosses at the Trafford Housing Trust accused him of gross misconduct, removed him from his managerial position, and cut his salary by 40%. Last autumn Adrian Smith won his case with the judge telling him that he had done nothing wrong, and that his bosses had acted unlawfully. Adrian gave this exclusive interview with Jessica Khan to The Christian Institute.
