You might remember a probably alcohol-fueled attack I made on our Health Minister, Manto Tshabalala-Msimang the other day. The general point of the article was to ask Manto to resign (I may have used the words "fuck off" instead of "resign").

The minister has subsequently NOT resigned and is still very much in charge of the vegetable patch which grows all of our local AIDS drugs. Apparently she is also focusing on something minor called "cancer" and is expecting a crop of asparagus by the end of summer which should nip it in the bud, should you become sick with the cancer 'bug'.

It seems I am not the only one who can't take it anymore. A friend of a 2oceansvibe reader has done the right thing and launched the Sack Manto website. God, you people make me smile when you do things like this!

www.sackmanto.co.za

The website is beautifully put together and apart from including Manto cartoons, quotes and fuck-ups, it ALSO gives full lists of Manto's phone numbers so you can call and harass her office. The website even has ready-made faxes and fax numbers for you to download and send to Thabo Mbeki's office, requesting her resignation.

CLICK HERE for the Sack Manto website. Get involved!

A classic Manto quote from the website:

"I don't know how many South Africans with HIV
would want to take anti-retrovirals"
