Death by AA fire? I suppose if someone where to ask where his was, they could say "Over there, over there and up there."

god.. imagine if the powers that be did this to the crowd at the amex.......................................! gulp

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Can we be certain that the employee in question hadn't previously been given a final written warning? Or is employment law in North Korea slightly different from ours?

 

[Hillian1]

I'm struggling to think what his next execution wheeze will be.

Death by piranha?

I believe they implement a "one strike and you're out" policy, or in exceptional circumstances this gets tightened to "no strikes".

I don't think the North Korean regime (and its propaganda machine) is quite THAT bad.

Anti-aircraft fire? Yep, that'll do it...

 

[happypig]

can he appeal ?

Jeez I hope Sturgeon doesn't see that article as it could give her ideas! Especially as Kim Jong's regime is not quite as extreme as the SNP.

Or whether he was allowed to take a colleague or union representative into the disciplinary hearing (that he clearly would have had) with him.

Mad country. I knew a chap who visited. You are obliged to visit the museum of it's former leaders and if you are a "citizen" of NK you are obliged to cry as you pass the tombs. Anyone not crying gets taken away, one can only imagine the fate that awaits them.

Anti aircraft fire to execute someone? Hell's bloody bells!

I believe he had already taken a bit of flak...

Jeez I hope Cameron doesn't see that article as it could give him ideas! Especially as Kim Jong's regime is not quite as extreme as the Tories welfare state ethnic cleansing plans.

You couldn't resist that could you?

6 of these bad boys used.

Guess he really wanted him dead.

 

[Eeyore]

Hope this policy is not employed in the East Stand Upper next season.

Well, he would only have to do it once!
Everyone would be wide awake for all his meetings from now on
