Joseph Muscat said he's going to reignite the flame of feminism. He'd better not use his wife as a match.
The Malta Independent, today
PL leader’s wife expected to reaffirm position in favour of divorce during No movement’s event
by Elaine Attard
Michelle Muscat, the wife of Opposition Leader Joseph Muscat, is expected to reaffirm her position in favour of divorce during an event which is being organised by the anti-divorce movement, Moviment Żwieġ bla Divorzju, today. The PL told this newspaper that Mrs Muscat received the invitation from the No movement earlier this week. The spokesman explained that although it was difficult for her to attend the event at such short notice in between reconciling her family duties and her public life, she opted to participate in the event.

Frigging ridiculous. Mur araha b’xi ruxxmata tfal u xi karriera. Imbasta Cherie Blair. Or is she now Carla Bruni, who never worked except for a bit of faffing around as a model, because she is the daughter of a northern Italian gadzillionaire industralist?
There they go, gabbing on about being forward-looking and liberal and contemporary, but Joseph and Michelle are just two archetypal conservative conformists. Hu imur jahdem, u hi toqghod id-dar biex tkun ‘on call’ ghal meta ikollu bzonna. And this woman is in her late 30s.Tal-biki.
Michelle Muscat is so typically representative of old-fashioned Maltese womanhood (“have children, stay home, perform wifely duties”) – and they are by far the majority – that it is almost laughable. There is absolutely no difference in this respect between her and ‘conservative’ Catherine Gonzi, and it is incredible that she just can’t see it.
She lives at the same address at her parents-in-law (as we found out through the fireworks business and Joseph Muscat’s swimming-pool-and-house MEPA application when he was still in his early 20s), which means built-in assistance. Between them they could earn enough to pay for a full-time housekeeper and not just somebody to mop up once a week. She has only two children and they’re twins, which means that their requirements are identical and synchronised. But she can’t work because once in a while, and usually on a Sunday or after office hours, she is required to walk down Republic Street with her three husbands – Joseph, Anglu and Toni.
Il-vera spoilt u qanzha. I have no time or patience for that sort of woman, and the country is teeming with them.

As James Coburn would say, “Short fuse.”
I’ll get me coat.
Still better than Kate “no-sex-before-marriage” Gonzi.
[Daphne – What makes you think that the Muscats had sex with each other or anyone else before they married? Or that the Gonzis did not? Are you privy to that kind of information, and why are you so crass as to bring up the subject anyway? I certainly hope they haven’t brought it up themselves. It was bad enough having the details of their inability to produce children by the normal route forced on us, together with descriptions of the amount of bleeding and time spent in bed. Too much information, by far.]
I think Mrs Gonzi brought it up herself this morning. Pathetic.
What’s the point of her participation in this non-event?
That dress reminds me of Wonder Woman that we used to watch in the 80s. All that’s missing is a tiara and two wristbands firing lasers.
Someone’s got to prepare those ginger bread men.
Michelle Muscat’s speech was prepared beforehand and she read it out. I wonder what genius wrote that for her.
I remember in the past that the doctors’ wives used to stay at home answering the telephone calls of the patients.
Nowadays doctors are all married either to doctors or other career women as most of them meet at university.
“Imnalla laqah gie ivvintat il-mobile phone”.
The “three husbands” comment made me laugh my head off…LOL
Didn’t Mrs Muscat take her nanny with her, the kids and dear Joseph on a trip to Australia? I recall reading that they kept the plane waiting for a whole hour for the ” royals”.

[Daphne – Excellent.]
Is that gadget’s mother next to him in the red jacket?
I do not know the answer to your question, but I have a question of my own. The lady next to Toni Abela – is that Duminka?
