England fans filmed singing offensive songs such as ‘10 German Bombers‘ face losing their jobs, a leading employment law firm has warned. The Mail has the story.
Despite being off work, employees who act in an aggressive manner or sing dubious songs and are filmed on the internet face major disciplinary action.
Even though the workers can claim they are on holiday and are not representing their firm while on vacation, if their actions are deemed serious enough and can be linked back to the company they could find themselves unemployed.
Although companies have also been warned that sacking an employee amid a Twitter pile-on could leave themselves open to an unfair dismissal claim unless robust rules were followed.
England fans have insulted many of their opponents during thee group stages of the European championships, although according to human rights rules, they could potentially face life imprisonment.
Kate Palmer, who is an expert in employment law and the Employment Services Director at Peninsula, told MailOnline: “It’s an unfortunate fact that large football matches can bring out the worst behaviours in some people. Recent examples in major tournaments include fans racially abusing players, singing offensive chants in Germany, assaulting opposing fans, or throwing bottles at police, to name just a few.
“And who can forget the fan who was splashed across every front page with a flare in a very questionable place!
“It is not an employer’s job to police what employees do in their own time, and employees do have a right to a private life. But when that private life becomes public, if it can be linked back to the workplace then employers may need to take disciplinary action.”

I have a feeling the response will be the same one the Welsh Rugby fans gave to the Welsh Rugby Union’s attempt to ban Delilah.
On a more general note, the main reason I post anonymously is that our ex-owner was pretty woke and my job may have been in jeopardy if he’d seen some of my posts.
That’s wise. Our comments are all searchable on the open internet via Google/Bing etc just by using your username.
As I’ve said quite a few contentious things here too, I see no reason to make it easy for them.
It’s sad
All the more reason to be anonymous, I know they’re trying to get rid of Online anonymity but they is obviously because they’re losing control of the narrative. Ron is not my real name, but have used it before and it is an easy name to remember. I once knew on old Shepperd named Ron when I was a kid, old school hard sod and pulled me out of a Sheep Dip once when I fell in head first.
One can but hope.

This Globalist Control Freak is just trying to drum up “lawfare” business for her Global Employment company “Peninsula”, as well as attempting to frighten England fans into compliance with the Globalist agenda for crushing Freedom of Speech.
It’s disgusting.
“Life imprisonment”???? You have got to be joking. —Not a thousand pound fine, not any kind of warning, not any kind of rehabilitation, but “life imprisonment”. You don’t even get that for murdering people.
It comes to something when your job is threatened because you sang a kids rhyme with slightly different lyrics. What sodding planet did I wake up in 20 years or so ago? If Kiernocchio gets in we’re all doomed; I’d be incarcerated for saying Geppetto did a crap job of making his prize tool.
There is a serious side to this some of you may have read about. A 15 year old kid was gang raped by 9 youths in a park in Germany. One got a suspended sentence, the others got nothing at all because of their age.
Then it gets worse. The child found one of the rapists mobile number; remember they had all been found guilty but served no sentence. She messaged him and called him a racist pig and a few other things. She was jailed for the weekend. The charge was brought because she said “pig”. Guess what Religion of Peace he is.
One of the rapists said in Court “What kind of man wouldn’t?”. That animal is free to do it again at will. They were, as you all guessed, not exactly white German, at least one is Iranian.
Be careful who you vote for folks.
The Tories are now wheeling out “Russia Russia Russia”. They are in a total self destruct mission. As someone who sobbed the day Mrs Thatcher resigned I never thought I’d see the day when I could despise them so now.
A more disgusting twosome we could not even conjure up in our worst nightmares than the beady eyed parasite Starmer and the cretinous eco communist Miliband.
They haven’t been Conservatives ever since. Truss tried, had the right policies and the right ideas but she was Conservative so had to go.
Tobias Ellwood the 77th Brigade agent of the deep state Tweeted ‘we are no longer a low tax high growth country, or something along those lines, then later deleted that Tweet. This was just after Truss was ousted. GB News always fails to call him up on the 77th in any interviews they have with him.
Rubbish. Truss was an idiot occupying the post of PM illegally, and trying to wreck the economy to boot. Let her go work for the Vatican.
They are NOT Tories they are Social Democrats and have been ever since Major took over. Basically they’re imposters. Reform are the new Conservatives.
Has anyone translated the songs/chants of other nations football fans?
Well, the words of “La Marseillaise” talk about washing the fields with (Austrian) blood and “Flower of Scotland” celebrates (bloody) victories over the English in the 13th and 14th centuries.
As a Scot, but not a nationalist, I sing ‘Flower of Scotland’, as a Brit I sing ‘God save the King’, even though ‘the rebellious Scots to crush’ is one of the lines. I’d also sing ‘we are the Billy Boys’ ..it all depends on the occasion, the circumstances, time and place. Yes, I’m a yoon, and despised by the SNP cult followers.
“although according to human rights rules, they could potentially face life imprisonment.”
How so?
Since when are you NOT allowed to do or say whenever you are off work? So now people cannot sing a song. When did words become a physical assault? Britain, please I am begging you, wake the hell up.
