Now that was a good laugh.
How can one who says “Il-Bieb Tieghi Miftuh Ghal Laburisti Biss” be expected to judge anyone’s respect for human rights?

Does he know better? I know that he is able to do by far worse than that and his public positions are vivid supporting evidence.
One should not forget the endorsement by Anglu Farrugia of Azerbaijan’s elections as free and fair when he was an OSCE monitor. Who knows whether Shav Nair didn’t have a hand in these going-ons prior to the 2013 elections ?
