So, the tribunal is really not a surprise, then

You read about some court cases, and it’s not really clear-cut which way the decision should go. And then you get some like this:

A sales manager who chased a female colleague around the office before putting her across his knee and spanking her also hired female workers based on their bra size rather than their abilities, an employment tribunal heard. …

Well, the guy is saying in his defence that none of this is true. But for entertainment value, I would have liked him to stand up in front of the tribunal and go: “Of course I spanked her! She was very, very naughty!”
