					<description><![CDATA[joseph muscat is young i&#039;m sure he&#039;s got no problems, anyway you can always check yourself.

&lt;strong&gt;(Daphne - I find Joseph Muscat to be wholly unattractive and oddly sexless, and so do lots of other women; a sort of human capon, if you like. I can assure you that I am not in the least bit tempted, and you should also know that 35 or 36 is not in the least bit young, in child-bearing terms, for men or women. That&#039;s why so many people in their 30s have twins...because they couldn&#039;t have one unaided. Not that it&#039;s any of our business, of course.)&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[obviously JPO will have to be sacked by the electorate, since wenzu gonzi hasn&#039;t got the balls.

&lt;strong&gt;(Daphne - Actually, I&#039;m beginning to suspect that Joseph Muscat is the one without balls, given that he feels the need to prove his fecundity with references to bottles, nappies and twins every time he makes a public appearance. Electors can&#039;t sack people. They can only elect them. Hence the name.)&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[JPO will be sacked just like ninu, louis, etc etc

How many pensions old eddie is entitled for?

&lt;strong&gt;(Daphne - The people you call Ninu, Louis etc were not sacked. The sacking of a minister must take place while he or she is a minister - but then I don&#039;t expect you to see the obvious, given that you vote Labour.)&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[http://www.maltastar.com/pages/msrv/msfullart.asp?an=24037

Poor Us!

&lt;strong&gt;(Daphne - A sane and intelligent person questions every report published by Maltastar.com. These are the people who reported, with words placed within quotation marks, the insults I shouted at them in the university auditorium, at the very same time that Super One was rolling a &lt;em&gt;filmat&lt;/em&gt; showing me sitting stone-faced and silent. Maltastar.com was set up by Super One&#039;s ace reporter Joseph Muscat. So standards are not particularly high.)&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[well  at least  JPO served his country as an MP  for a good number of years  but to get a pension   as an  EU  MP  after 3 years  is ridiculous  What  i really   wanted to know is if that was the reason to stay on as a EU MP  after more than  3 months of being elected as leader

(&lt;strong&gt;Daphne - Try to find a reporter who will put that question to him outright. They&#039;re all too busy licking his nether regions. In fact, it was the perfect question to ask on his 100 days Super One show, if only to stop him ranting about his frigging twins. My mother just rang to say I left out one of the best bits in my blog-post about that show: the bit where he was asked what he is most concerned with right now and he replied &quot;Pavements. I find them so difficult to negotiate with a pushchair.&quot; He must have said that at the point when I went to make myself a restorative cup of tea.&lt;/strong&gt;)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[will JPO be entitled to a pension when he will be sacked from mp in the next election?

&lt;strong&gt;(Daphne - MPs can never be sacked because they don&#039;t have employers. And yes, of course he will - just as Joseph Muscat will be entitled to an MP&#039;s pension without having been elected an MP. He can then add this to his MEP&#039;s pension, which is one of the reasons he is dragging out his hold on his MEP&#039;s seat, and go on television at 65 to tell us about his comfortable lajfstajl....and more fool you lot for handing it to him on a plate.)&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>
