Natalie Bird was removed as a prospective parliamentary candidate after wearing a 'Woman: Adult Human Female' top, claiming discrimination by the Liberal Democrats over her gender-critical views.
The court heard that Bird's belief separates sex and gender, and while her views were known as gender critical, there was no evidence they crossed into transphobia.
Judge Evans-Gordon noted the compensation reflected ongoing discrimination impacting Bird significantly, though it was not a single incident.
The judge concluded that while the Liberal Democrats can choose candidates supporting their policies, the treatment of Bird indicated a broader issue of discrimination within the party.
