Not true – first time I met Daphne she was wielding a two-handed sword, with bolts of lightning coming out of her eyes and the blood of puppies dripping from her mouth… Or at least that’s how I remember it now after reading Labour’s view of her for the last few years.

In reality, it was very pleasant. We had met just before Christmas as she was writing some copy for a client of ours and we had a chat about Swedish Christmas traditions. I’m even honoured that a small snippet of that chat was mentioned in the next edition of Taste.

Basically in Sweden we have a Christmas dessert called Ris (rice) a’la Malta. It’s not entirely known why it has this name, but a very plausible explanation is that blood oranges used to be imported from Malta some years ago and this dessert was originally served with this very same fruit (it’s now normally served with a sauce made from berries and with pieces of orange or tangerine blended in).

I’m sure the puppy-eating Daphne is a more interesting version, but sadly it’s not entirely true.

Do they speak bad about Daphne because of her blog or because they know her personally?

I’m sure she doesn’t need anyone to defend her, but she’s just doing a job on this blog and expressing her opinion.

Disliking someone and calling her ‘arroganti u antipatka’ is irrational.

You know Matthewdemokratik, she probably approaches people in real life in a different manner than here on this blog. Did that ever cross your mind?

As regarding John Bundy, he’d have done better not to answer back. A public personality should know that he’s exposed and prone to criticism.

Have you forgotten the famous six-year wage freeze in Malta?

Oh, you must be the one waiting for the living wage.

Mario do us and yourself a favour and F off

PBS did the right thing to sack him. He is not even suited to presenting programmes for children, let alone a breakfast show. But oh, I forgot, this is One we’re talking about here.

Before I came to London, I always thought that here life would be much cheaper. After all, in Malta everyone seems to be complaining how expensive living in Malta is.

I was so wrong. As a student I now have to pay all the bills, transport, rent, food (which is NOT cheaper in UK) and I still cannot afford a TV since I have to buy it, pay a TV licence and pay monthly for TV programmes.

I don’t complain and I’m not shy to say that I don’t have a TV. I also pay tuition fees. My friends (who have been working here for years) have to pay mortgages (some 2400 euros per month) and to pay them they rent rooms in their houses.

Can you imagine THAT happening in Malta?

I have confirmed that Maltese citizens are really lucky and should stop complaining about everything and blaming everyone all the time.
