Perhaps Tesco will come down on them like a ton of bricks - well, like a box of ceiling tiles anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC1701A Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 i bet the ceiling collapse was not enough to stop the devil spawned Tesco Radio from blasting its mindless garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably brightened up the day for Phuket readers too, but only because they could see the daylight through the missing ceiling tiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainman34014 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Ceiling fitted by Thailand's finest ceiling fitters.. ( formerly rice planters/cutters, purveyors of concrete posts, market floor sweepers, hammock layabouts etc ). What could possibly go wrong ?

Yes indeed - thank you, but I am sure the UK parent company would not be really interested in defamation. It would be making efforts to ensure Health & Safety and be investigating those responsible for the installation and/or construction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"and be investigating those responsible for the installation and/or construction." - and once those responsible are identified, which will be a Thai Company, if named in public by Tesco, then Tesco can be sued for defamation. In fact, whoever names them in public, can be sued for defamation. So, the wrong doers become the victim. ???? ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
