Mothers lose right to breastfeed children at work. It seems that this conclusion has been made in response to a bad decision: to claim that unfairness over breastfeeding rights was sex discrimination. It can't be, because men can't breastfeed. Surely sex discrimination as a claim can only be used when it's something both men and women can do? Having said that, legislation to improve the situation for women who want to breastfeed should surely be put forward by the Government here.
