    I have no idea why she chose to dress a decade older than she is. Frumpy.

    So sorry to contaminate Michelle’s post with this piece by Norman Lowell.

    I welcome Xinhua to their newest bureau in tiny Malta, and I make them a free gift of their first news report. Here’s the man who helped more than anyone to create a groundswell of support for Labour, regaling us with his views on our Chinese friends:

    ——————

    The incredible cruelty and heartlessness of the Chinese:
    burning dogs alive and beating a lone, white Uighur kid.
    And they hate us, Whites with a cold, impassive envy and resentment.

    But China, for all its armed forces and a billion chinks: is a paper tiger.
    We only have to contaminate their two mighty rivers: and they will die like flies.
    When the time comes and if need be: The Imperium will put the chinks, firmly in their place.

    The more I see, read and hear of Mrs Michelle Muscat (in whose presence, etc etc) the more I miss Kate Gonzi.

    Michelle Muscat lanqas hdejn is-suba iz-zghir ta’ Kate Gonzi ma toqghod. F’kollox.

    The silver satin dress tops them all off.

    ‘Three really is a crowd.’

    Is that why the other Joseph bowed out?

    Is Kitten moonlighting as a DOI photographer?

    To be pitied!

  9. Grezz says:

    Now let us compare and contrast with this non-airbrushed photo, shall we? Despite the wrinkles (why air-brush them, anyway, when she looks lovely just the same?) Kate Gonzi exudes beauty, warmth, happiness and sincerity – something which can never be said of Michelle Muscat, despite the fact that there is a whole generation between them.

    Just looking at a picture of Mrs. Gonzi and of Dr. Gonzi, gives me a moment of serenity and peace.

    Thanks to both of you for all you did for Malta and the Maltese.

    The more time passes under this government the more we miss you.

    God bless you.

  11. ciccio says:

    Excellent photo collection. I don’t know why, but the ones showing the Maltese Ambassador to Brussels and JFK in the presence of Mrs. Michelle Muscat always make me laugh out loud.

    You can take a girl out of Nigret, Rabat but you can’t take Nigret, Rabat out of the girl.

  13. Kohl says:

    Celebrity culture has truly become the disease of our age.

    That goes for several other recent posts of yours, not the least fun run bodyguards, queue jumping, trashification and Facebook selfies in adulthood.

    Garbage in, garbage out.

    Apart from her appalling dress sense, I just hate her smile, a true “faqmijja”.
