ECHR says Gareth Lee’s case against bakery that refused to bake cake with ‘support gay marriage’ message is inadmissible
A man has lost a seven-year legal battle against a Belfast bakery that refused to make him a cake emblazoned with the message “support gay marriage” after the European court of human rights ruled that his claim was inadmissible.
On Thursday, the ECHR, by a majority decision, said it would not reconsider the decision of the UK supreme court, which had overturned a £500 damages award imposed on Ashers bakery, which is run by evangelical Christians.
