Danger SA Minister gets rough on flight.

I believe that the SA Minister of Health displayed the same attitude she has towards AIDS to a German passenger on a flight from Frankfort to Cape Town (via Jo'burg) on Monday night by telling him not once, but twice to "f**k-off while pointing fingers in his face. She apparently also threatened to assault him .

I'm not sure if it was a Lufthansa or SAA flight but it seems as if certain politicians still view themselves as being above the law. I also believe that nothing happened to her on landing in CT. I'm sure if it was anybody else, the airline would have taken steps against such a person.

Really time now for ICAO and local civil aviation authorities to get the unruly pax laws jacked up to the extent that said laws won't be a joke anymore.

It was Lufthansa flight and apparently the captain had to intervene and calm her down.
It doesnt matter who it was, but first class pax should know how to behave themselves, even if the tax payer is footing the bill!!

bloody typical....politicians are above the law, oh, sorry, I meant they are just more equal than the rest of the populace

this behaviour will be the end of democracy and law and order in south africa, the beginnings of which can be seen already.

The only reason folks do these sorts of things ....is they know they can get away with it.....
If she knew that someone would take the pointy finger, break it off and stuff it where the sun dont shine, it wouldnt happen......

Respect them....

The latest is that some spokesperson out of the SP's office said that all South Africans should respect their ministers.

Last I heard respect was something that was earned...not demanded....

Just my pennies worth....
