In reply to interested bystander. interested bystander( but not an innocent one): I honestly don't know if it's safe to assume that Marlene Mizzi is Labour in sentiment. She did so well under Nationalist governments that you would think she a Nationalist prima donna.

Yes, you are right- Notary Mangion had his piece of cake from the famous land contract at St. Julian’s – he should not throw stones at glass houses. I believe Marlene Mizzi should be cautious as well of her actions – she is still a public figure – we Maltese pay taxes for social services and not for going around with drivers paid by our government.

In reply to J Busuttil. I seem to remember that at Sea Malta the chairman's car was used as a delivery van for those shops, too.

Many people are of the opinion that the ‘black taxes’ that’s how they are generally called, as they are provided with the driver, are for the service of judges/magistrates while on duty. and not for the personal use of their missus. Happily this is Marlene Mizzi and not some other lady not on Labour’s book. They would have already called for investigation for abuse.

Oops! it almost escaped my notice. You are, of course, admitting that the people who are perceived of corruption are all NP sympathisers. Had it been otherwise, the LP would not have kicked up such a fuss, according to you.

OK then. As long as everybody is happy no problem exists. Daphne you would have torn such a contract to shreds had it been signed under you know who. Probably you are right when you say that few people care. I have taken steps not to care so much either. Invested in a generator last week.

[Daphne – I rarely take an interest in such matters, but that might be because I’m in tune with my audience, and they don’t either. I’m here to entertain people not bore them. There are enough columnists doing the latter by writing what they want to write rather than what people what to read about.]

Is it safe to assume Marlene Mizzi is a labourite? As an outsider, I have worked it out that you are making comments about labour people. Are there any Nationalist people with cars that are being used by their family? Even if there were, would you comment on it? I agree that the rules on these cars should be tightened to only be used on official business.

If the auditor can have his own general, why can’t the Great Leader have his own police motorcycle escort?
