Petition The UK must expel the North Korean ambassador

North Korea is a rogue state threatening the entire world. They are extreme cybercriminals, exporters of terrorism, and have now ramped up their nuclear weapons programme in defiance of UN sanctions and international outcry.

We must send a strong message by expelling their ambassador.

More details

Other countries which have expelled their North Korean ambassador include: Spain; Kuwait; Peru; Mexico; and Botswana. Meanwhile Egypt, the Philippines, and Uganda have drastically scaled back diplomatic ties.

London has an (est. 20,000) Korean community from both North and South. North Korean "enforcers" spy on this community as well as locals (who aren't always Korean) near the embassy, intimidating people who joke about the country or regime.

They shouldn't benefit from life in London.
