“The removal of the whole tumour was unsuccessful, and so there is a part of it still there,” Gisladottir told Stod 2 in an interview yesterday evening where she discussed parliament’s decision to send Geir Haarde to the Landsdomur court, but not her.
Gisladottir was diagnosed with the serious tumour at around the time of the banking collapse in 2008 and had to undergo surgery to remove it. She has now revealed, however, that surgeons were unable to remove all of it.
“It is being closely monitored and as long as it doesn’t grow, then it is okay,” the former MP said – adding that she generally feels fine: “I have felt well since I left politics”. She does not regret the decision to leave and does not envisage returning. “Life is much better outside of politics.”
She described the current state of politics as ‘mournful’ and lamented the committee recommendation to charge four former ministers including herself. She accused the Left Greens of persecuting the four unreasonably and said that the proceedings will not stand up to much legal scrutiny.
