Mixed race woman fired by G4S after row over black power salute

Worker alleges she was unfairly sacked from Covid-19 testing site, but G4S disputes claims

A mixed race woman was disciplined and later sacked from a G4S coronavirus testing centre after suggesting colleagues could adopt the black power salute for a photo in support of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement.

The outsourcing giant said Kenya Scarlett had previously been confrontational and demanding; it claimed no one had taken issue with expressing support for BLM.
