On the point: Patron of the Palestinian Telegraph

Being the patron of the Palestinian Telegraph implies that she supports the actual accusations rather than just wanting an inquiry into the accusations. If this is the case then Nick Clegg is correct that “The comments were wrong, distasteful and provocative".

And sacking her only adds to the provocation,does it not? 
 
If a person is fired for expressing her views; her fundamental right to freedom of speech then that is 'wrong,distasteful and provocative' ; not to mention the question of her statements not even being looked into.

Yes, because... Patron of the Palestinian Telegraph
