That's not true. His girlfriend was fired previously for posting racist messages on Facebook and then refusing to go on a sensitivity training course offered by her employer.

That article is a summary of a daily mail article, so it's bad journalism squared.

Ah, that's new information to me. Still she was fired immediately after this statement of her boyfriend, so there is obviously a connection to that, in addition to what she said herself in the past.
