Cardinal cross controversy
Cardinal Keith O'Brien will use his Easter Sunday speech to call on Christians to wear crosses. The issue of whether employees have a right to wear a cross at work is being contested in the European Court of Human Rights.
Campaign launched on right to wear cross
The pressure group Christian Concern has launched a campaign this Easter urging the Government to drop its case backing a ruling against a nurse, Shirley Chaplin, who was banned from wearing a cross at work. Hers is one of four cases currently being considered by the European Court of Human Rights.
