The thing stopping the IFOA from appealing the decision is that they can only appeal on a point of law. i.e where there is an error in law.
They cannot appeal based on feelings. Moreover, they cannot appeal on the grounds that they believe that they should have the right to unlawfully discriminate. Keep in mind, that the court didn't just find in the victims favour for direct and indirect discrimination, they also found that the IFOA instructed and aided another body to discriminate against the victim and others because they were British nationals. That is an impossible hurdle to jump over on appeal.
