"Scouse scum" lawyer fired
Entirely outside his work role, a lawyer gave an interview about football and was so offensive that it brought him into disrepute and as a result he has lost his job. It is a salutary lesson in personal discretion and the blurred lines between one's work and private lives.
London partner at a US law firm who branded Liverpool FC supporters ‘Scouse scum’ in a television interview has had his partnership terminated by the firm.In a message posted on YouTube, Goldberg Segalla managing partner Rick Cohen said Chelsea fan Clive O’Connell’s comments were ‘entirely inconsistent’ with the firm’s ethos.”
