If yu Google ms Nwoke's name you can read the decision of the EAT where her appeal was dismissed. Brent and one of its senior officials were severly criticised and rightly so, but the finding that there was no racial angle was not disturbed. The one complaint wich might have been remitted had been held to be out of time and "just and equitable" did not help; and the EAT did not disturb that finding either.

Off topic: "just and equitable" is grossly unfair to employers. You can't reach a finding on it without hearing the whole case at sometimes enormous and usually irrecoverable expense. The time limit should be six months, not three, but test for any the exception should be the hard-nosed "reasonably practical" wording as in unfair dismissal. And the "continuing act" provison should be repealed.
