Scroll scroll scroll.. I'm sure the article will tell us what he said, won't it? Scroll, scroll.. won't it?

Reader, it didn't.

They never do, because what was said is offensive.

I would like to know in many cases to form my own opinion of whether it was sufficiently offensive to justify the reaction and consequences so I also find it really annoying.

You can deduce its some form of sexual jokes though, most likely innuendo. What we do not know is how bad it was.

One side says it was humor. The other side says it was not humor. Without more information we can't know if it was humor or not.

Always a good plan to fall back to the 'I was only joking' stance when you get caught

Investigations are pretty much its own sport now in the UK. People are always getting investigated over "inappropriate" comments or behaviour, basically anything. I'm sure some people at HR love it.

People being sacked for this kind of behaviour is a regular occurrence now. How can someone that senior not be aware of their own actions and where they will lead.
