Current Affairs MP and finance minister trade insult, finger gesture
No topic has been more heated in the Czech parliament of late than mandatory health fees – defended, to varying degrees by the government, but reviled by the opposition. In some ways, the issue has brought out the worst in politicians. On Wednesday, the parliament floor witnessed the shadow health minister David Rath and the finance minister Miroslav Kalousek trade insults: the former in words, the latter, using “the finger”. The antipathy between the two was lost on no one.
