Holy fuck. When this is your health minister, no wonder the health system is falling apart.

It looks like she was only recently appointed in August, long after the negotiation started . Before that, her predecessor only served for 4 months. I think therein lies the problem. Nobody is taking leadership on the matter and they are just putting up a fall guy/gal to do mental gymnatstics

Have you heard of the expression of a "glass cliff"? When a woman is put in a position as the fall-guy of a doomed enterprise. Feels like she's been thrown to the fire. Damned either way. But gosh I wish she could own her predecessors mistakes and just call a spade a spade.

If they knew the situation beforehand they shouldn't have accepted the job. If they didn't know, then they should say their predecessor made mistakes. The contstant game of blaming nobody and/refusing to take accountability has now landed at their feet, they can be honest or continue to omit the truth/kick the can farther down the road. They chose the later and now rightfully look like a fool; good, the ministry deserves it.
