But why is he correct? The ambassador shouldn't be fired for giving his honest opinion in a private diplomatic communication to his own government. It's his job.
In the end, reality meant he had to go which is why the leaker themselves is to blame.

What a load of rubbish!
He didn't get sacked, he resigned as his position became untenable due to the leak.
As regards the leaker, I think when found he/she should face the full extent of the law. It was not a "Whistleblower" situation and has harmed UK international relations.
