Political opinions are not relevant to your job.
I'm not engaging in political discussion, it's not permitted, but you're wrong.

Political opinions are not relevant to your job.
We are generally not really talking about whether you are Conservative, Labour or Liberal. Probably not even talking about whether you were Brexit or Remain. However, if you are the type of person that goes on twitter and is constantly spreading your racist views, sexist views, homophobic views, etc, are you saying these opinions are not relevant to your job? And forget whether your job is in the police, immigration or something very directly relevant. Surely most business owners would not only employ such a person, but they would look to get rid of existing staff members for behaving in such a way. I'm sure many businesses have social media policies now as part of their staff manual?Rubbish, social media wasn't carrying a knife, that's the physical world mate.

Ours too, which is why I have every single person I can find from my company blocked on facebook, and why my twitter is anonymous.Our company has a social media policy for it's employees. In fact it was updated just over a month ago and passed out to all employees. We have been warned!

Depends on the job. As a cop I was not allowed to be a member of, or show any affiliation to, any political party. It was a huge no no.
What about someone with extreme right wing anti immigrant views applying for a job with customs and immigration? Or assessing asylum claims?
They would be fools if they don't. We have only a small company and we have a section in covering this. It is standard, generic text but it does the job. Any company not having a policy probably does not have a staff manual or set of policies full stop.I'm sure many businesses have social media policies now as part of their staff manual?
Twitter really aren’t that great at reacting & closing accounts.You'll very quickly be blocked by twitter, so it's not really relevant to the discussion.
We are talking about whether you're Tory/Labour/Lib Dem or SNP actually, because in Scotland there's a hardline of unionist extremists who will take into account your voting actions

In here, the GM forum, I’m anonymous. I can say I’m off to Portugal this week without any concerns. If I had to post under my real name I wouldn’t have the freedom I have now.
