Tessa Jowell

Tessa Jowell is UK Culture Secretary, a minor but important and potentially lucrative post in Bliar's goverment. She was formerly Minister of State for Public Health at the Department of Health. Now her husband, (nominally now estranged subsequent to scandal she could not avoid) is apparently a Mafia associate (I do not claim this, others seem to).

"Sitting in a warehouse along with ice-cream and frozen cow brains was £5m worth of old blood, some of it infected with who knows what, [seemingly HIV and hepatitis C] . Suddenly it had become worthless because of the new law. It should have been destroyed. But it's not." In fact it seems to have been involved in health work on hitherto healthy people. And Jowell's husband appears to have had clear involvement with this blood and to have lied about this.

IMO: Unfortunately nobody really expects UK politicians to be squeaky clean but this is beyond a joke. I have used the UK medical services, and rather hoped they will keep me well, not make me ill. Insofar as Jowell was concerned, perhaps "Minister for Illness" would have been more appropriate than "Minister for Health".
