Is this Legal Eagle a twit?

Barrister expelled from his chambers after describing a schoolgirl at the centre of a race discrimination case as a “stroppy teenager of colour” in a tweet had been previously sacked from a council’s legal team for anti-migrant rhetoric. (LINK)

He may well be right in suggesting that Teenagers have been known on the odd occasion to be "stroppy" but is this limited only to those "of colour"?

Quite aside from this, what on earth is a Barrister doing venting on Twitter?
Was there nobody in his (ex-) chambers from whom he could seek help?

Who cares?

its such a pointless article. How it made the national news papers is beyond understanding.

Maybe a strongly worded email from his superior will put things in check.

I don't think that Barristers are exactly "Employees" are they?

There is a bit more about this man with 30 years' legal experience here => https://thecritic.co.uk/cancelled-by-my-barristers-chambers-over-a-tweet/

Whatever, he does appear to be prone to "expressing" his views on Social Media - which may not be the wisest hobby for a Barrister
