Paul Weller Takes Legal Action Against Accountants Who Dropped Him For Speaking Out On Genocide In Gaza

UK rock legend Paul Weller, the veteran solo artist who previously led the Jam and the Style Council, is taking legal action against the accounting firm of Harris And Trotter. As Sky News reports, that firm worked with Weller for three decades. According to a legal letter, the firm told Weller in March that their accountants and tax advisers would no longer work with him or his companies because Weller said that Israel was committing genocide against the Palestinian people. In response, Weller is filing a claim against the firm, stating that it is discriminating against his legally protected philosophical beliefs.
