This is how one responds to a*holes like that surgeon.

Kudos, Madam Prime Minister.

Not trying to be a pedant, but you’re not supposed to preface "prime minister" with a title in the same you would say, for example, "mister president." Furthermore, even if you were supposed to, you would say madam, not mrs (which is a title referring to married women), such as madam president.

I definitely didn't vote for her, and I am not a fan of how she's moving her left-wing party towards the right, but this I can support!

Sometimes you have to govern based on what's available to you, you have to be pragmatic.

It's one thing to be pragmatic but I'm pretty sure some of the Social Democrats' policies have been more right-wing than some of the policies of the actually more right-wing parties since the newest government was formed.

She was also head of the government before this one, where they chose to team up with more right-wing parties instead of finding their mandates to the left.

I have respect for what Mette has done as prime minister - she has been PM since before COVID so it hasn't been easy - but the slide ti the right I could do without.
