Not smart enough. A truly smart person would have had thought about how he came across to the audience at home, rather than venting his spleen on his interviewer.

What’s this, one Justice/Home Affairs Minister Wannabe borrowing time from another Justice/Home Affairs Minister Wannabe?

Me too – on line.

What struck me was his immediately angry/antagonized reaction to Reno Bugeja, even as the latter was trying to ask his very first question.

As the programme was literally just getting underway, Dr. Debono was acting already as if he wassubjected to a savage attack.

The interviewer’s own extremely frustrated demeanour throughout the programme was a clear reaction to the very strange way in which the interviewee was (needlessly) conducting himself.

Smart? Reno had him in his pocket throughout the session.

I had never before heard him speak before, nor read anything that he’d written, although I am grateful for his efforts to have lawyers present during police interrogations.

My impression is that he is smart but arrogant.

I was particularly irritated with his patronizating attitude toward the interviewer.

Didn’t he stay home when he was supposed to be with his parliamentary group yesterday?

Didn’t he run off home rather than stand behind the prime minister after the PN meeting last week?

Doesn’t he love home so much that he refuses to leave even when he is almost 40?

And didn’t he escape the PN whip and hole up at home to avoid a vote two years ago?

Didn’t the prime minister and his wife end up having to visit him at home?
