“Pullicino Orlando said in court that at the time, he was told by Mrs Caruana Galizia that she had been told to attack him in the Mistra saga. He said that he also heard of this from other journalists including Vanessa Macdonald. When asked who the other journalists were he said he couldn’t remember. When asked if the person was Richard Cachia Caruana, he answered rather evasively that he could not exclude this. But he did not confirm.”

Watch out, Daphne, he knows how to make people feel sorry for him.

Ihobb jilaghbha tal-vittma.

[Daphne – The only blogger they mean is me. I can’t think of any others and I’m quite sure he didn’t mean Jacques Rene Zammit, whose opinion is irrelevant to all but his immediate circle.]

Magistrate Herrera lied under oath. Why is anyone surprised that Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando did the same thing?

“The Maltastar story even quotes Jeffrey as calling me “a PN columnist”. Why – am I paid by the PN? Nittien.”

Not to play the devil’s advocate here but, since when it is money the main determinant of affiliation?

It is like reasoning that most of the suicide bombers are not effectively driven by Al-Qaeda since, probably, they aren’t on Al Qaeda’s payroll? Do you really think that your ‘enemies’ think you do what you they say you do for money?

[Daphne – Obviously, I am not dealing with somebody who understands English here. “A Nationalist Party columnist” means somebody who works for and is paid by the Nationalist Party – like, say, the people who work for Media Link. A Nationalist Party columnist is NOT a columnist who votes for the Nationalist Party. For example, my colleague Marie Benoit is out-and-out Labour. But I would never dream of calling her a Labour Party columnist, for the simple reason that she is patently not one. She is a Malta Independent columnist, just like me. Get a grip.]

I thought it was associated with the French Revolution.

Just like Sant did with Mintoff – it was impossible for Sant to work with Mintoff a constant thorn in his side. Sant acted correctly in his actions

He lost it a long time ago with me.

Just watch this baby go at it after Dr Sant gave him ‘mimmi’:

That’s exactly what I thought, ‘his heroic push for a referendum’ has, naturally, been forgotten as real events in the real world unfold, and he must be really seething at this.

Perhaps he thinks the Libyan people started the revolution just to spite him.
