Fuel for the “Joseph-is-a-naff-chav” brigade. Fire away.

“What is sure is that I make it a point to really dress down on the weekend. I have this theory that you can always tell what a person’s line of work is by the way he dresses over the weekend: if he’s all dressed up for a simple meal at a restaurant it must mean that he doesn’t have to put up with suits and ties during the week. On the other hand I’ve seen a very rich man wearing a track-suit in a smart restaurant. That incident must prove my theory right”.

He said it in the interview to which somebody above posted a link.

I’m pretty sure my 10 year old brother could write a better article. Seriously, the person who employed the people writing these articles should be sacked.

I could barely understand what they’re on about. Halfway through a sentence I found myself asking, “Is this article in English?”

Did the Maltastar sleuth team just discover this?

In reply to maryanne. I know hindsight is a bit unfair but that piece must rank with the most surreal articles of all time.

In reply to Isard du Pont. Shall we ask Joseph Muscat if today he considers himself to be a 'robber, a missionary or just plain crazy'?

In reply to M.. Then again, maybe they think with their nether region, explaining the "in the air" bit.

Here’s another gem:

Captain Morgan blames Fernandes captain but others blame authorities (http://www.maltastar.com/pages/r1/ms10dart.asp?a=11893)

Captain Morgan Cruises has blamed the incident involving the schooner Fernandes on “a miscalculation by the vessel’s experienced captain.”

At least one other source, David Bonello, COMMENTING ON TIMESOFMALTA.COM, remarked that notwithstanding a captain’s ability when seas are rough, the highest part of the reef is mostly submerged and thus easily missed. He also added that the reef has never been marked and thus the fault of the accident can be attributed to the authorities.

Would they report my beliefs if I said I thought the accident was caused by the flock of flying monkeys I saw soaring over Bahar ic-Caghaq that afternoon?
