I don’t think he’s in love with Joseph. It’s just too strange and too sudden.

What I think happened is, when he realised that his political career with the PN was over, because he hid his problems with Marvic Camilleri from them, it dawned on him that the only way he might still have a career is to switch to Labour.

The amazing thing is he was probably right, as they seem to close an eye to actions such as the ones he committed. I think that maybe in time he might convince himself he fits in with the PL, but for the time being he’s not even fooling himself. He’s just cynical enough to know it’s his only option to remain in politics.

The thing is that Facebook was designed for users to show their face. NO FOR GONZI is using it as an AssholeBook.

Good performance? Is there something we should know about?

Joseph should use his power and shut him up.
