I'm not sure how that could happen, since the entire system is transparent and entirely objective. There is no management discretion in how the system works. If you achieve objective X, you get a bonus. If you complete your monthly tasks for the month for 3 months, you get a pay raise. Ok, perhaps there is some management discretion in setting the goals, but it'd be pretty obvious to the whole company if someone is being set harder/more goals than someone else, so I think this sort of stuff would be dealt with pretty quickly. There's always a chance that someone will try and sue you for random reasons, even in the UK. This is the kind of thing I'm not going to worry about until it actually becomes a problem, though. Hopefully I will not hire the kind of person who would pull that sort of shit... interesting point though.
