Jana Havligerová’s political diary: Minister Válek is at war
The government is preparing further anti-epidemic measures, some of which have already been bitten by the Ministry of Health Vlastimil Válek: “The regime of work quarantine is that instead of quarantining houses, one goes to work in quarantine,” the minister said. The Brno hantec, to whom Válek often refers to the incomprehensibility of his speeches, can really do wonders.
The pirates have decided to keep the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister for Regional Development Ivan Bartoš. The heads of other government parties were relieved that reason had prevailed. For this time. It remains to be seen whether common sense has won for the entire two years that Bartoš is to lead the party.
Satisfaction with the current political situation has dropped from twenty-two to eleven percent over the past two years. Dissatisfaction with it, according to a recent survey by the Center for Public Opinion Research, provided more than half of the respondents. About a third of the people answered – neither satisfied nor dissatisfied. Former Prime Minister Andrej Babiš will probably not put this business card under anyone’s nose.
The prosecutor’s office indicted former SPD MP Miloslav Rozner for his statements about the former Roman concentration camp in Lety u Písku. Years ago, Rozner called it a “non-existent pseudoconcentrator.” Justice will reach him because he did not defend his seat in the October elections, losing parliamentary immunity. It’s never too late for justice.

Political diary: Don’t jump on the bait, pirates
Opinions
By not appointing Jan Lipavský (pictured during the visit of the head of state in Lány), President Zeman headed to the weakest link in the five-party coalition as foreign minister. Let’s hope the pirates don’t jump at him and start rebelling against the government. Perhaps they will realize that insisting that the government be appointed, including their candidate, could mean several months of delays in joining the new cabinet. Malignant delay.
