Savills Suspends Employee as It Looks into Racist Tweets against England Players
In the News
Isn't it amazing that when these cretins are caught out they always claim their twitter accounts have been hacked.
Heartbroken for the lads that have to put up with this horrific how anyone thinks this is in any way acceptable is beyond me it’s time to make a real example of these people can’t keep happening
I agree Mick82. It taints the whole tournament and shows England in a very poor light internationally. It didn’t help that senior politicians criticised footballers for ’taking the knee’ in a show of support for anti racism.
It's likely many other twitter users are currently feeling a bit anxious over tweets they made after the match. For example, comedian Andrew Lawrence has had shows cancelled and been dropped by his agent for comments he made - https://metro.co.uk/2021/07/12/andrew-lawrence-has-shows-axed-after-racist-england-players-tweets-14917839/
It still beggars belief that people think they can make these sort of comments and there be no come back.
blacklabrador Times have changed.
It's not as if his comments were remotely funny.
He said them to try and get a reaction, and he's certainly got one.
I wonder if the next logical step will be one of these companies suing one of their own employees for dragging their corporate name through the mud by association.
blacklabrador this was sent to all employees early morning the man in question I don’t believe his account was hacked just another wannabe
Ann1984 Makes me laugh when they come out with the "My account was hacked" twaddle.
Notice it's only after something horrendous has been posted on their account.
I've yet to see a tweet saying "great sponsored run today, we raised £800 for the air ambulance" to be immediately followed by "sorry about the air ambulance tweet, it wasn't me, I've been hacked"
They must think we are as stupid as they seemingly are.
These people often get caught out with the "Ive been hacked" claim when people start looking back through all their tweets. These racist comments are usually not one offs! It nice to see people actually get caught and punished by losing jobs etc - so much more effective than any criminal conviction.
So far, eleven people have been arrested over comments made about this match on social media. A total of 34 UK accounts posted comments regarded as criminal. Three have been arrested on 'suspicion of inciting racial hatred', which carries up to seven years in prison.
