Perhaps the Labour Party would enter their own trio to compete in the Maltese section. How about Consuelo, Marisa and Nikita as the PL’s answer to Feminem. Any suggestion for a name down the same aisle?

In reply to Rita Camilleri. After what he did to that rubber puppet and enjoyed it so much, he'd have a heart attack with these.

When is the next Labour fundraising telethon? Before or after the International Song Contest?

How can they pay for 12 foreign bands and singers when not too long ago the party still owed Enemalta and the WSC huge arrears?

I would imagine all bands and singers come from the Schengen zone allowing them free movement within the zone. And this is the same party which not too long ago wanted nothing to do with EU membership.

Have they paid the bus-owners for supplying buses for the day of protest against the new tariffs?

What we have here is another example of Labour culture. The Labour party has typically believed that it represents Maltese culture. They have repeatedly used artists to deliver a political message, be it in music, drama, monuments to political figures, the media. As Daphne reminds us, their lyrics in music repeatedly used words like hakma, jasar, helsien and barrani.

This obsession with a Maltese culture has often led the Labour party to isolate us from the world. In this case it is good to see that there are foreign participants, but then, why separate the Maltese competition from that for foreigners? Do we live in parallel universes?
