Jien niftakar Pawl ghax kont hemm. Qabel ma waqaw niftakar il-marmalja gejja tahthom meta qatt ma kellhom jaslu sa hemm. Niftakar ukoll il-‘carcade’ ta qabel u t-tkissir li halliet warajha. U niftakar ukoll lil dawk li suppost izommu l-ordni jikksru l-ordni huma minflok. Dawn ma hafna hnizrijiet ohra ma tiftakarhomx Pawl?

It would take someone of your mentality to imagine that anyone of sound mind would want to compete with Mintoff in the popularity stakes. Who, pray tell, would wish to be admired by those who admire Mintoff?

A riddle:

If someone criticises a political party and its followers but is never in line to govern the country, is that a threat to democracy?

Answers on a pinhead, please.

You say you were shocked by the blog posts but say nothing of your reaction to the violent, semi-literate comments. Inadvertently, perhaps, you have given a lot away – that you think that sort of violent aggression is to be expected from a certain sort of person who votes for the Labour Party.

That is Mintoff’s legacy. Why, then, are you shocked when he’s criticised? You may as well condemn Simon Wiesenthal for having hunted down sick old men.

or was it pence!

Lejborist your logic is pecuniary constrained as that of all your leaders, at least since Mintoff.

“Tgawdi” does not necessarily boil down to pounds shillings and cents. For example no one can ever calculate the monetary value of freedom of speech.

And you and the Mrs are still Mintoff admirers. What does that say about you?
