The Red Cross is paying for the families of hundreds of migrants granted asylum to relocate to Britain. Confronted about this by the Telegraph, Yvette Cooper blamed the Tories. Shock!

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Looks to me like this person should "fall on his sword". He was definitely out of order. A representative of a state organisation should be strictly neutral in such a dispute.
Careful now. Its better to let this precedent stand for the time being. If in the future an attempt is made to discipline a civil servant for making radical statements or actions then this example can be used.
Civil Servants should have full political rights.
If you removed the right of civil servants to disagree with us you also remove their right to agree with us. Incidentally this could explain why at the OHK tresspass I was on a couple of years back I saw a parked Coastguard van with 'Locals for the golf course' placards in it.
The poor mans a fool anyway this is what golf-club co-owner Patrick O'Connor thinks of him and other locals
""Don't need 'em. They don't play Old Head -- can't afford it. It wasn't built for them anyway. It's for the international market. We have an annual day for Kinsale's police and fire -- keeps 'em sweet. That's about it."

Ouch!
It seems to come down to whether he was there as a representative of the coastguard or as a private citizen.
If he was on the programme as a representative of the coastguard then he was definitely misrepresenting that body. If he was there as a private individual then he should not have been presented as a rep of the coastguard.
So which is it?
There we are, campaiging for the right to go to the lighthouse, which is presumably something the Coast Guard need to do now and then.
he is a failed local and dail election candidate probably just looking for the oxygen of publicity in advance of his next campaign where no doubt he'll finish a lomg way short again,unlucky mr. butler,unlucky
