But why should a government employee put all the other staff at a disadvantage because of their personal bigotted views?What if all the staff at that council decided that they personally would like to refuse to help anyone called Steve, for no justifiable reason at all, just an arbitrary decision? That's exactly what's happened here.
You can't have a point of principle that says this council will not discriminate against people based on race or sexuality and then allow members of staff to do just that.

If it's anything like most public sector jobs, a main part of the job description is to be able to work with and for people of different race/religion/sexuality and not to descriminate based on that.
He'd have applied for a job while knowing that he couldn't do that.

This is a standard nhs clause.The jobholder must comply with all policies and procedures designed to ensure equality of employment. No person whether they are staff, patient or visitor should receive less favourable treatment because of their gender, ethnic origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion etc.
