Jihadists are fine in the civil service, but not anonymous expenses rip-off posts

Excellent post on Harry's Place pointing out the discrepancy between the treatment by the civil service of Lisa Greenwood and Azad Ali:

[O]n
the one hand we have Lisa Greenwood getting sacked for anonymously
expressing her outrage over MP the expenses scandal. On the other we
have Azad Ali openly glorifying jihad.
Both
are Civil Servants governed by the same code of conduct, but only one
gets sacked – and it’s not the one lambasting the British state or
promoting violence against Israel.
What a disgrace.
