Q. Is Maltastar runs by morons? A. Yes.
Labour’s Maltastar site woke up this morning all revved up to give its interrogation-mark key a thorough work-out:
There is only one question on people’s minds today? Why is the PM holding onto Austin Gatt for dear life via a gimmick vote today?
I have questions for Maltastar that are somewhat more pressing.
1. What makes voting Labour such a great idea?
2. Where are those policies – is Karmenu Vella sitting on them and hoping they’ll hatch?
It’s Maltastar’s job to answer those questions, not to speculate about why the prime minister might wish to retain Austin Gatt in the cabinet.
We read Labour’s news site in the vain hope of finding out what Labour plans to do, not to listen to it wonder out loud about the fate of Austin Gatt.

Is Franco Debono and all who have posted today on timesofmalta.com aware that it is highly probable that Berlusconi’s government won’t last for another 24 hours, Greece is still without a government and here we are blissfully cocooned in our own little world of Don Camillo, made up of buses and private member’s motions, as if we are immune from what is happening around us?
We need these petty issues like how many of us would welcome a bad toothache.
We absolutely have no sense of priority and are absolutely mired in parochial issues. The mind boggles.
So Many Questions

Labour’s plan is to have no plan.
Actually, Ciccio, I think it’s true. It would certainly be in character.
But they do have plans!
They plan to sack Lou Bondi and Peppi Azzopardi.
They plan to have Gadget as interior minister.
They plan to make the back of a bus a judge.
Please give them a break. Planning ain’t easy you know – you need to plan for it.
Think about it: When you’ve been 25 years planning to be in government, you do run out of planning ideas.
I can only but agree with Pecksniff.
As the world as we know it is crumbling around us, we are still happy in la-la land bickering about public transport and whether a criminal should have access to lawyer or not, when frankly speaking with the sentences currently being given to some criminals, one could really be debating whether lawyers are needed in the first place to defend them, given that the judges and magistrates are doing a darn good job of it on their own.
I was however rather amused by one of the motions to make it harder to enter the legal faculty.
It’s good to know that our young lawyers are at least thinking about safeguarding their own future, whilst not giving a toss about anyone else’s.
I hope that someday Labour will tell us what they have in store for us, so that I might be tempted to vote for them.
