In presenting its judgment on the applicant’s sex and race discrimination case, the employment tribunal had stated that the applicant had been over sensitive.
Held: Tribunals should avoid making aspersive comments about the parties before them. This area is one necessarily involving strong emotions, and no case could be helped by such comments. A tribunal can and should make its views known, but need not do so in this way.
