School had ‘knee-jerk’ reaction to ‘Pride harms children’ post, tribunal told

A pastor who tweeted that Pride events were “harmful to children” has said he was forced to leave his job as a caretaker because the school he worked for had a “knee-jerk” reaction to the post.

Keith Waters, 55, claims his role at the Isle of Ely Primary School in Cambridgeshire where he was well-known to children and parents, became “untenable” after the comment in June 2019.
