Maybe they’d prefer Red Bull.

l-Orizzont said ‘hebbet’ i.e. assaulted the camera.

I saw the news item on Super One and I can honestly say the she only waved the handbag at the camera affording at the same time a sweet smile to the camera lens. Far from being aggressive or menacing.

Most others would have acted otherwise to that sort of harassment but the girls have style and…….guts, lots of guts.

Excellent idea! It will work wonders on camera lenses.

Antoine, your second paragraph deserves some serious reflection. What we have here shows how easy, or should I say natural, it is for some people – who would undeservedly call themselves progressive and moderate – to accuse a person of acts which that person has never committed, and worse still, which they themselves may be guilty of. As you hinted, this then leads to a series of arrests, abuse, and breach of fundamental human rights. You know, these things happen in those countries where language such as “Traitors of the People” is fed to the people instead of proper nutrition.
Let us never go back to the 1970s and 1980s.

That anyone could react and hit back is an alien concept to them. Then when that happens all they can do is to repeat their act ad nauseam in an attempt to wear their opponent down.

That could succeed when the opponent depends exclusively on the independent media to put across his viewpoint, and there is very limited scope for that.

Blogs are a very useful tool in that regard – especially one such as yours which delivers hard hits with wit combined with humour – the latter being potent weapons in themselves, but which are attributes that these people and their supporters very evidently lack. Witness the type of comments appended to maltastar.com features.

I am pretty sure that most of your barbs simply go right over their heads.

In this particular instance, Cons displayed the same limited thinking. She clearly assumed that the mere sight of a policeman on your doorstep and/or that a ‘magistrat’ has spoken would be enough to gag you. Instead enough slime about her and her cronies has been dredged up to overfill a cesspit.

The fact that she has stayed on in this situation is evidence enough of her unsuitablity to hold her office.

Any person with the least fragment of dignity and integrity would have resigned and disappeared from public view very early on in this saga.

Her attitude and actions are on a par with those of Noel Arrigo when his abuse came to public knowledge. But then, can you ever imagine Joseph Muscat voting in support of any motion in parliament to impeach her.

It is funny, but sad, that every crisis in Malta tracks back to the MLP one way or the other. I do not know how we can ever break out of that.

Ahseb u ara int, Robert Galea.

“Professional reporters”? I have always looked upon them as professional distorters.
