Iteshi v London Borough of Harrow and Others: EAT 3 Aug 2011

EAT RACE DISCRIMINATION – Direct
The Appellant, a qualified barrister, was not shortlisted for the post of Legal Assistant but he was successful in obtaining a position as a Legal Services Officer. This was subsequently withdrawn after he suggested that the Third Respondent with whom he would have to work was not telling the truth about delays in processing his appointment. The Employment Tribunal found that he had not been discriminated against on the grounds of race in respect of either matter. His appeal complained of errors of fact, perversity, misdirection and inadequacy of reasons but all his grounds were really an attempt to re-argue the facts and the appeal was dismissed.
