About this listen

In this episode of Barely Legal, Morally Wrong, Alix Meekison and Mandy Laurie unpack clashing rights at work and beyond. They look at how the courts balance protected characteristics, why no single right automatically wins, and how disability and belief are assessed in practice. Along the way they revisit headline cases, from a guest house room refusal and the Northern Ireland cake dispute to the Miss Higgs social media ruling. They explore flags, free expression and when symbolism can create a hostile setting for staff, as well as day to day tensions around pronouns, taking the knee and professional duties to treat without bias. Expect straight talking, practical takeaways, and one simple question at the end… was it barely legal or morally wrong.
