Today (19/12/11) it's been announced that the leader of North Korea Kim Jong Il died on Saturday (17/12/11) of a heart attack aged 68. This creates something of a power vacuum in the isolationist nuclear armed state. South Korea, Japan and China have all put their armies on a heightened state of alert while they wait to see who will take over as North Korean leader and what they will do. Hopefully this won't be much of a problem because Kim Jong Il has been preparing his son Kim Jong Un to take over for the last two years although the generals seem to be trying to assert their position by test firing a short range missile.
In other news which is much more important because it relates to me I've been on the telephone chasing up this Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) nonsense. After about 40 minutes on hold to the DWP I got told to call Atos Healthcare directly. After about 20 minutes on hold they proceeded to openly lie to me claiming that they don't have responsibility to send out questionnaires and referred me back to the DWP. After a further 20 minutes on hold they agreed to send out another questionnaire which they expect to arrive later this week. I doubt that will happen though because the postal service around here is backed up to late November so that questionnaire isn't scheduled to arrive until about six weeks after my Amazon order.
