Someone made a parody in a format that has been used a lot to represent your reaction to an unreasonable and unwinnable situation (i.e. my favourite version is Hitler calling Games Workshop about their excessive price gouging for their tiny plastic models)
The employer caught wind of it and FIRED him for it.... the man was fired for expressing his opinion through a meme. So he sued them and won his case, this is a win for free speech advocates everywhere... how is it NOT relevant
So, teaching dog to Nazi salute: criminal.
Making Hitler meme: not cause for firing.
The UK makes no sense.
Ok? Gotta ask, how is this relevant...
This is .win now faggot! The chains are off

FREE SPEECH
Also nice to see a pleb make nice bank from a megacorp with shitposting.
Looks like the beeb got cause and consequence mixed up, he was sacked before the payout
It's just a bad title that can be read both ways:
(Worker sacked after Hitler meme) wins big payout
vs.
Worker sacked after (Hitler meme wins big payout)
"Worker wins big payout after Hitler meme sacking" would make the chain of events clearer.
Why would an employment tribunal award him a wrongful termination payout before his wrongful termination?
ok, im confused, i thought employment tribunals were limited to some low figure like 38000 except in cases if racial and sexual discrimination.
Where was thd racial discrimination in this?
otherwise I call bs.
