That's rich, coming from Forum Zghazagh Laburisti

Eliks Saliba - the evil witch should be stopped, but the monument shouldn't be removed because that would be censorship

Forum Zghazagh Laburisti forms part of the Front Against Censorship, a coalition of left-wing groups – or rather, a coalition of some left-wing groups like AD Zghazagh, Graffiti and Zminijietna and some conservative working-class groups like Forum Zghazagh Laburisti and GWU Youth.

The ‘front’ has (yawn) condemned the demands for removing the Luqa phallus, saying:

“This would be yet another obscene case of censorship, much in the same vein as the recent literature and theatre censorship cases.”

Well, that’s pretty rich coming from the FZL (and please don’t all chant out aloud what those letters stand for – because by some amazing coincidence they’re some pretty good obscenities and the first is Jose Herrera’s).

The internet gathering-places of Labour elves are thick with FZL people demanding that “somebody should stop the evil Bidnija witch”, that “if Gonzi doesn’t do it then somebody else has to”, that “somebody should shut her up” and other statements in that vein of which their grand-daddies would have been proud.

Their grand-daddies may not have been the ones who actually burned down The Times and sacked the homes and clubs of their opponents and critics but after all that happened, they went and voted Labour.

And they raised their children to believe that Labour is the greatest.

And you know what the funny thing is? They probably don’t realise they’re mirroring their forebears, because they weren’t even born then.

But they’re talking about somebody who remembers only too well.

So take it from me, you small-time losers: you’re just like nannu, and you don’t even know it.
