I'm sorry but what a bucket of b*llocks. It doesn't matter whether he slept in the street outside or the 5* hotel down the road, or when he went back to duty in relation to contacting the press.
The point is, and remains he was turned away. What were the reasons behind this and as others have pointed out, if this was someone from a {insert minority here} background, it would not be allowed.
It sounds to me like you're a policy maker. What was his recourse, indeed? I think you've bl00dy well missed the point by a long shot.
F*cking recourse?
