#England - Mark Bonnick, Arsenal's kit man of 22 years, was dismissed from the club in 2024 due to his social media posts against the genocide in Gaza. The club stated that they found his comments such as 'there is ethnic cleansing in Gaza' provocative and damaging to the club's reputation. Bonnick filed an unfair dismissal and discrimination lawsuit against the club, arguing that his posts were not anti-semitic but represented 'anti-zionist' political views. The main hearings at the employment tribunal are expected to take place in 2026. Bonnick is demanding not only compensation but also reinstatement to his position and a formal apology.
