The Worlds Gone Mad,

[Bobbisox1]

This man should have been commended ....not sacked!!

Barry, one of those savages is out on the streets again. Dunno how the toerag can live with himself.

[barry1010]

TTT, you mean of the murdering 'vigilantes'?

[ToraToraTora]

yes, Stephen Norley only got 4 years.

[barry1010]

Sigh

[woofgang]

exactly what Mamya said.

[Jackdaw33]

Me too, and the Falklands veteran bit cuts no ice with mw

[Bobbisox1]

I still think he should have been severely reprimanded , I most certainly do not agree with his use of FB , I must make that clear,
Although I doubt they could work together afterwards so possibly the Testing Centre had no choice but to sack him

[ladybirder]

Should a person convicted of such a crime never be allowed to work again? Just asking.

[Jackdaw33]

If there is but one lesson to be learnt from this: Avoid Facebook and Twitter like the plague. You expose yourself to all and sundry, akin to walking down the street starkers.

Says in the link that the RAF vet broke the firm's social media rules. If he was made aware of the rules, then he ought not to have broken them. I agree with those who say he should have voiced his concerns to his employers.

[barry1010]

Jackdaw, not using it doesn't stop somebody else from outing you on FB and Twitter.

I use social media but my privacy settings are racked right up and nobody can find me on it.

[ladybirder]

Any answers to my ? @ 10.46?

[pixie374]

I think they should, lb, although there would be certain places they wouldnt be able to, as you need a clear DBS check.

[Bobbisox1]

It's a complex one, I suppose it would be who he was working with I.e young people

[pixie374]

^^ sorry, not necessarily a "clear" one, but the employers will be told about it.

//Mr Gill deserved the job as he made a mistake and was duly dealt with by the legal system. He made a mistake and hopefully learned from his error.//

Error, An error is forgetting an umbrella on a rainy day or taking a wrong turning, not trying to meet a child for sex

That's my thinking, too, lb.

If Gill wasn't working with teenagers (girls in particular), then he ought to be allowed to work without one of his colleagues firing up their rightrous indignation and splashing his 'concerns' all over FB.

As others have also said, Towler should have brought the matter to the attention of his bosses and left the matter.

Gill is also *not* a paedophile......immature, probably, but not a paedophile.

[royfromaus]

Surely you and LB are at odds, jack...LB says he shouldn't be allowed to work at all.

[ladybirder]

Yes. Perhaps best to keep him busy, working!
Is this something some, but not all, are born with? If so how would you know the difference.
Sorry, so many questions.
