Norway's new public health minister, Sylvi Listhaug, thinks that adults don't need government lectures about what they put into their bodies - telling Norway's state broadcaster NRK that "people should be allowed to smoke, drink and eat as much red meat as they like," according to the New York Times.BRAVO.
"The government may provide information, but I think people in general know what is healthy and what is not," she added.
The interview, published just three days into her new role as head of the ministry, was "dotted with the kind of sharp, controversial comments Ms. Listhaug, deputy leader of the right-wing, anti-immigration Progress Party, is known for."
