The Equality Act 2010 does not define what beliefs are protected. Legal precedent is that a philosophical belief must “be worthy of respect in a democratic society, not incompatible with human dignity and not in conflict with the fundamental rights of others.” https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2010/15/section/10 https://www.equalityhumanrights.com/sites/default/files/religion-or-belief-guide-to-the-law.pdf
