Labour minister breaks own government’s Covid rule

The minister of labour and social affairs, Jana Maláčová, has been criticised for breaching the government’s own regulations aimed at containing the coronavirus, iDnes.cz reported. On Monday the government said that up to six people could sit at one table in a pub from September, up from the present four. However, the minister was photographed with more than 10 people at a table in a beer garden, later that day.

On Twitter former TOP09 leader Miroslav Kalousek asked Ms. Maláčová what the actual rule was, describing himself as a disoriented citizen.
