In a shocking move, UK Health Minister Andrew Gwynne has been sacked after making anti-Semitic comments and insensitive jokes about a pensioner constituent on a WhatsApp group. He reportedly joked about hoping the constituent would die before the next election, sparking widespread outrage. Gwynne has since apologised for his 'badly misjudged comments', but the damage was already done. The incident highlights the importance of responsible social media use, especially for public figures. With the rise of social media scrutiny, politicians must be mindful of their online presence and avoid controversy. Online safety and digital literacy are key in today's digital age.
