    Fair play to this lady (here).

    A lady and former Irish resident that is willing to return to her roots and jump into any role!
    She was looking for work and surprisingly was asked to take the role of Libya’s new Minister for Health!

    So lads and lassies, get those CV's off to Libya.
    You never know, you could be helping to run the the country too next month! :D

    I am gonna apply for a ministerial job in libya too. Sounds like a bit of an oil train. You never know. They might take me?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,120 ✭✭✭fungun


    So they offered an anonymous ex-pat the job of Minister for Health?

    Loving the new democracy!!!! Lives and money well spent!

    Meath based Dr Fatima Hamroush will return to her homeland on Sunday after 15 years in exile to take up the post in the first Libyan government since dictator Colonel Gadaffi was overthrown.

    Dr Fatima Hamroush?
    I thought Libyan didn't do the whole pork thing.

    Ps. irishcentral.com..... *spits*

    Fair play to her !

    It'll also be a step up working for the Lybian Health Service as opposed to ours. War, shortages, waiting lists, and all that considered. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,589 ✭✭✭touts


    Wow an Irish Minister for Health trying to improve a health service instead of destroy it. Haven't seen one of those in a long time.

    If they give me a job I'm hiring Makikomi for personal security.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,111 ✭✭✭lucylu


    hopefully she won't base her model on the HSE otherwise the Libyans are even more f_cked

    Good for her.
    I mentioned that she was a resident here.
    (As it turns out, for a good number of years)

    Amazing what you apply for and often get offered in return - possibly not what she was expecting! :eek:

    Question: do they hand out application forms for minister of department jobs?
    Where do I get one! :D
    What would the rest of ye apply for? LOL


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,030 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone


    If she does a good job she can come back here with a flame thrower and rapid fire machine gun and take on the Irish health system like Sigourney Weaver saving Newt from the Alien Queen.

    The electorate already blew her out the airlock. And then the smooth talking insider company man convinced us to go back in and fix it right this time. But now it's turning into a cluster**** since he isn't up to the job leaving the electorate in even deeper trouble.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,451 ✭✭✭Onikage


    I'm confused OP, are you saying she is eligible for the position of Minister based on her skills, knowledge and experience as opposed to the normal, decent and time-honoured traditions of nepotism, cronyism and blackmail?

    not really irish though is she?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,025 ✭✭✭problemchimp


    So you don't get elected to Parliament and handed a ministers portfolio in Libya? Where is all this democracy and change I hear about? It will probably last as long as the Egyptian democracy.

    So?

    Its one less well qualified doctor/specialist to boot by the way for our already starved health departments!

    I'm saying "fair play to her".
    She was good enough to work hard here (I assume) and when things turned bad economy-wise, she looked for work.
    She applied for a medical job and was asked to run the whole country health-wise!
    I must have been a hell of a CV! LOL

    Maybe that's why the OP called her 'Ireland lady'. :pac:

    I KNEW THAT SOMETHING GOOD WOULD COME OUT OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT REGIME-CHANGE OPERATION IN LIBYA!!! Let's hope and pray that more "Lybian Irish" return to Libya, and soon, and that they take their entire families along with them. It would appear that big-business and the U.S. Military Industrial Complex did Ireland something of a favor in this respect, would it not?

    This woman's citizenship should be revoken. Is she loyal to Ireland or to Libya? Only the dumb Irish would accept this kind of two-timing.

    Looks like someone needs a new Minister of Education - or at least one teacher for an English department.

    *Blows dust off CV - soon to be sand instead* (with a bit of luck!) :D

    Well maybe I should send off my cv to positions I may not get.

    I'll make sure to include "I'm not a doctor but I'll give it a go. I'm a good communicator and I like walking at the weekends, lol, jk."

    Minister for roads right here! :D
    I'll lend you my support - for the bridges of course! :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 280 ✭✭texidub


    She was very active with the political movements seeking change in Libya this year, (so she said on RTE news the other night, anyway). So maybe it's not all THAT strange that she should be rewarded with a position for her efforts. Minister is a powerful position though: I wonder what tribe she is from?

    More important from the Irish point of view is that she takes at least half of the overpaid HSE admins with her! :D

    EDIT: P.S. I want to be Minister for Exoplanetary Exploration and Bungee Jumping

    Ireland Lady sounds like a good name for a superhero. Her powers might be turning her enemies into leprechauns and stepping on them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,915 ✭✭✭MungBean


    Not so much an "Ireland lady" as an exiled Libyan doctor who happened to live for a time in Ireland. Pretty sure you'd want to have some connection.

    Having said that I wouldnt mind having a pop at a nice cushy guvment job. Minister for Internet exploration perhaps, with a nice quite office where I wouldnt be disturbed.
