Oh bugger. My cover’s blown.

On a rather more serious note, doesn’t Labour’s obsession with 24 hour continuous coverage of Joseph Muscat’s every little move come across as desperation? It’s not just that everything revolves around Muscat. His word is party policy. He IS party policy. They could have put his face as a party logo – it would have been vastly more appropriate.

Must be rather uncomfortable being a Labour MP these days. You wake up on a Sunday morning to find that your Leader has come up with a new idea during an interview, which is now official party policy, and which you’re expected to defend and promote, even if you think it’s total pigswill.

I thought you meant that we should thank Joseph that after 500 years of the concept, the wage is still living. I had thought it had long been dead.

And we should be able to eat out and order steak on at least two nights weekly, to break the boredom of the working week. After all, the employer will foot the bill.

And while we’re at it, we should be able to upgrade our car. And make cell deposits into a Smart Cell Bank at Euro 2,000 per newborn.

Sherpa, more would be in breach of Daphne’s rules, and would increase the risk that the marmalja will creep back into the blog.
