    Yeah. She hasn’t really done herself any favours. Though that said, how she’s being treated by the opposition and the media is vastly different (i.e. horribly) to how politicians on the right have been treated (i.e. with kid gloves) when they have mental health issues. Muller, for example. I find the whole thing disgusting really.

    I hope she’ll be ok. I hate to say it but if self-harm or suicide results from this, I wouldn’t be surprised. She’s obviously in a really low spot. I really hope that doesn’t happen, but if it does, I hope those in opposition and in the media who are being so gleeful about her downfall (and all those trolling about it on the other website) do some serious self-reflection. But they won’t.

      Uhh, what? The opposition have barely mentioned it apart from saying she made the right decision to resign, the media have been reasonably kind.

      She doesn’t seem to be being treated any worse than Muller at all.
