And why isn't tweeting from a confidential meeting like that a fireable offense?

It would be in most companies in similar circumstances.

The guy is a dope.

p.s. Does the appearance of the anarchists at the Euston building foreshadow more "spontaneous" guerilla protests, perhaps in places like T5 or the parking lots or other places BASSA cannot picket? Makes me wonder if the Euston event was not just a one-off.
If it isn't a fireable offence - and I rather think it is, no matter what the import of any information revealed - then it can only be considered unhelpful and irresponsible. At best. The man is, indeed, a dope - which, given the severity of the situation - ought to disqualify him from taking further part.

As for the 'Flying Picket' from Socialist Workers Party - I always thought 'socialist worker' was an oxymoron, like 'military intelligence' and 'political integrity' - you would have to consider Euston Tower to be a relatively 'soft target'. I guess if they tried that at T5, it would attract the undivided attention of an Armed Response Unit at least and risked the involvement of 'The Hereford Gun Club'.

BASSA are clearly under almost unendurable pressure at this point and now they are getting nasty and even more irrational - that makes them dangerous.
