Maybe we should be thankful that this afternoon was not a re-run of KMB with the Labour thugs in Valletta in September 1984.

I’ve always wondered what would have happened had Mintoff really withdrawn from the political scene in the 1980s, leaving KMB to govern without adult supervision. Would we be in the EU today? Would we even be a democracy?

Daphne – A few minutes ago I was in Merchants Street and they are putting up a stage, lights and all the paraphernalia for tonight’s demonstration or whatever they are calling it. I bet you they have spent hundreds of liri for the sophisticated ‘lights’ etc. Mela unions who are fighting for people who cannot afford to pay their bills have so much money to spare?

And another thing. When we protested against Alfred Sant’s tariffs, the GWU missd out on the historical opportunity to put up a united front.

Gerald: If everyone takes his advice, you won’t be posting any comments like that. In fact, you won’t be posting any comments at all. You’ll be writing letters by candlelight.

Gerald, with all due respect, is a government dictatorial if it asks people to pay for what they consume?

nothing wrong with standing up against this dictatorial government.

[Daphne – Ahem, Gerald? The last dictatorial government Malta had was the one headed by the man writing the letter.]

Daphne,

Please don’t insult trolls! Nobody deserves that kind of insult!

at least he didn’t dust off his old mantra of ‘jew b’xejn jew xejn’ – possibly because the latter situation would come about quicker than you can say ‘what? you’re still around with your 19th century idealism?’

If we followed Dr KMB’s advice what would happen is that nobody pays their bills until Enemalta has no more money to pay for the fuel to run the power stations. At that point, we would have the mother of all blackouts and the only means of tranport on the roads would be the karozzini – ancient socialism in action.

[Daphne – Well, that’s the advice he gave his troll-like friend Dom Mintoff, which is why the man didn’t pay his bills.]
