Jon Holbrook, who caused outcry with ‘stroppy teenager of colour’ tweet, was sacked from Brighton council legal team
A 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.
Cornerstone Barristers said Jon Holbrook’s statements on social media were “irreconcilable” with membership of the chambers.
