WHAT'S ON BRITSKÉ LISTY
Disgusted with the Public Affairs party
20. 7. 2010 / Petr Jánský
More than half of Czechs were against Public Affairs party leader and former TV reporter Radek John becoming the Minister of Interior. The reason was the worry that his party is dominated by people from the security agency ABL. Premier Petr Nečas surprisingly allowed this to happen, so he named John for the post and president Klaus gave his signature. The president did the same with ABL owner Vít Bárta, allowing him to become Minister of Transports and Josef Dobeš Minister of Education (both from the Public Affairs party -- VV).
From that moment weird things started to happen. A certain Mr Moroz showed up at the Ministry of Interior. Storyteller John (remember how he justified on TV that Bárta is not an expert on his resort, but was studying 12 hours per day...) didn't blink and declared that he was named by TOP09.
Kalousek didn't let that pass and said that his TOP 09 party doesn't know Mr Moroz, so they could not have sent him to the Ministry.
It sounds like a joke, but according to prime minister Nečas, Michal Moroz is co-owner of a security agency that was founded by people from the former regime's secret police, StB. Social Democratic leader Bohuslav Sobotka said that this marks the return of StB to the Ministry of Interior, 20 years later.
"Good boy" Nečas sees it as being indeed a certain risk, but still refuses to do anything about it. His last hope is that Mr Moroz fails the mandatory security screening, which can block those who can represent a danger to State affairs are filtered out. To work for the Ministry of Interior is necessary to get the so-called "confidential level" of approval.
But if we add to this also the other members of ABL who are getting positions within the Ministry of Education, like Kryštof Hajn, and the Ministry of Transports, who got Martin Sýkora, then the fun ends and the disgust starts. The prime minister decided to sit on a barrel full of gunpowder. He is a decent person, so I would not like to see him explode into pieces because of that.
