A top European court has declined to rule in a high-profile discrimination case centred on an activist's request to have a cake decorated with the Sesame Street characters Bert and Ernie and the words "Support Gay Marriage".The human rights court said the case was inadmissible because Gareth Lee had failed to "exhaust domestic remedies"
LGBTQ groups said the ruling was disappointing and also took aim at the UK Supreme Court's 2018 decisionThe European Court of Human Rights said the case was inadmissible because activist Gareth Lee had failed to "exhaust domestic remedies" in his case against a Northern Ireland bakery.
Mr Lee said he was frustrated the case was thrown out on what he called "a technicality" and said freedom of expression "must equally apply to lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people".That campaign succeeded when Britain's Parliament stepped in to bring the region into line with the rest of the country.
Good.
