Actually, according to the article, he travels in to teach a single class once a week. From what I can gather he was followed on his way to and from his car. Most Lecturers do their lesson planning and research in their own time, and maybe get a couple hours a week paid prep time. The only way you can say he hasn't been doing his work, is if he doesn't come and teach the class.

You are suggesting that he is taking money for 15 hours work and not actually doing the work, but instead spending his time campaigning. He has a right to spend time campaigning. he is only employed for a small portion of his week. The rest of his week is his own to do with as he wishes and is not being paid for by the public purse.
