Serco Employee Charged With Giving Out Asylum Accommodation Adresses.

Of course this is worth being held in custody!

You know damn well why this is so bad. They’re not giving away the addresses for a laugh, are they? Holding in custody means that they can’t tell anyone else the address.

A fire was set at a hotel housing asylum seekers in London within the last two weeks.

This has potentially put lives at risk. You also have to wonder about this person's motivation. Glad they've come down hard.

Misconduct in a public office covers a huge range, the maximum sentence is life imprisonment. So no, being charged with it doesn't mean it would usually amount to a suspension and an internal investigation.

As the pp said, their actions could have resulted in people being killed. They've also cost the public purse a very significant amount of money.

Perhaps not surprising when the outcome of his misconduct, which he should surely have anticipated unless he’s only got half a brain, is the terrorising of the people in those properties?

Misconduct in my job would mean leaking an exam paper to students. That hardly constitutes causing immense fear and suffering. He deserves everything he gets.

His actions facilitated violence. Someone could have been killed.

"Gathered to protest" is downplaying it somewhat.
