Education Senator Katharina Günther-Wünsch Apologizes for Fudged Facts, Vows for Transparency
Gunther-Wunsch expresses regret for inaccurate claims - Günther-Wünsch expresses regret over the spread of misleading data
Katharina Günther-Wünsch, Berlin's Education Senator, ate a slice of humble pie in the Parliament, admitting her goof-up in statement timings about a lawyer's letter. "Yo, fam, I gotta 'fess up," she said, "Last week, I spouted some BS during my parliamentary spiel 'bout when I got this gloomy ol' letter from Berlin teacher Oziel Inácio-Stech. Turns out, I thew a curveball and claimed it was back in May, but lemme set the record straight - I actually got it on December 4, 2024."
This fiasco kicked off when she initially stated that she skimmed the letter months later. However, by Friday, the straight-shootin' Senator corrected her slip-up.
"It was all about the internal snoopin' back then, y'see. My department's got a digital postbox, and guess what? The letter was nowhere to be seen in it," she justified.
A thorough file review later, lo and behold, the missing letter was unearthed on December 4. "Transparency is my thing, and what's life without a dose of honesty, so I spilled the beans as soon as I got the info," she explained.
With transparency in mind, Günther-Wünsch plans to invite folks for file perusal later in the week. "Transparency's the key to drawin' the right conclusions, and that's exactly what I aim for," she emphasized.
Aw, the Greens were all ready to slap a metaphorical censure motion on her but had to wrangle their feelings for a bit longer. And that's the lowdown on the Education Senator's apology and promise for transparency.
