It does sound familiar, except we use to draw the moustache also on the lira, oops sorry on the 2 liri.

Tonio Borg himself does not strike me as one who changes his position himself. He comes across as a rather square kind of man.

If I am correct no Maltese journalist has spent a couple of nights out at sea on a patrol boat documenting the tough jobs that get done by our maritime force. T

he two political forces on these islands have polarised everything and ruined true journalistic passion. My comments do not include Daphne as she sticks her neck out more than a turkey in a turkey shoot.

‎”Misrata death toll from this morning’s attack is 23, most are women and children, spokesman says. Among the dead, a 2-year-old boy, his mother, aunty & sister. All killed while asleep. port is now closed.”

Is Tonio Borg going to repeat his call for the Libyan government “to change its position”?
