Former magistrate Richard Page | YouTube/ Christian Concern An appeals court has upheld the firing of a British magistrate for telling media that he believes adopted children are better off with a mother and father instead of same-sex couples. The Christian man says he will take his case to the Supreme Court. Richard Page, who is from the Headcorn area of England’s Kent County, was suspended by the NHS in 2016, a year after he shared on national television his Christian views on parenting following a same-sex adoption case. “The basis on which he was dismissed was entirely lawful and involved no breach of his human rights,” said Lord Justice Underhill of the Court of Appeal on Friday, according to BBC.
