    You would if he set light to a timber frame house he was meant to build the brickwork outer shell around it
    There does not appear to be tolerance on any issues anymore
    Having an opinion these days seems to be a hate crime against someone

    I think I would argue, do you seriously think the company did not know about his views. He don't seem the shy sort to me. Loud and proud but because it got media attention, it was like quick get rid.

    I couldn't give a shhite about him personally, he could go rot for all I care, I'm more looking at where are we going with all this. Plenty of criminal damage been done to statues, should they all be sacked as well.....oh no, because they don't hold extreme right wing views, probably only extreme left ones.

    Again not having a go btw.

    It's quite possible, his firm were aware. I don't doubt it for a minute.

    Everything is so open these days, if you want to commit crimes, racial abuse online, or defacing/vandalising public property, then you can't complain, if your employers give you your cards.

    Was trying to quote your post about talking about your work on social media. Pretty much I'd get sacked if it was found out I'd mentioned my work on social media.

    Yup, I've seen plenty of people dismissed for dissing their company on social media.

    I found it odd when people were seemingly surprised about doctors/nurses facing disciplinary for going to the press about PPE issues etc. It's standard practice

    We've been constantly reminded about social media policy during this pandemic.

    I wouldn't go on a protest, I think it's very unsafe. I saw all the EDL lot in Portsmouth two weeks back and made a beeline in the general direction of away from them.

    If it had been the other people I'd do the same thing.
