A bridge to Toni Abela’s supermarket

Published: December 14, 2011 at 2:43pm

Nicky Azzopardi posted this on his blog today. Incidentally, he is 20 years old. I believe it important to mention this fact, because the Labour Party equates ‘zghazagh’ with ‘idjoti’ and then wonders why the smart ‘zghazagh’ don’t like Labour and Labour ends up with ‘zghazagh’ like Nakita and Charlon and Alex Saliba instead.

“Families should also be given the necessary benefits. But the government had its priorities wrong and instead of finding money to help families overcome burdens, it was spending millions on the City Gate project and building a bridge to nowhere” (Joseph Muscat)

The injustice.

But it’s all right. Once Muscat is elected, he will take the €336,000 he got from the poor public yesterday in the fund-raising marathon, the €235,902 they gave him last year, and the €210,511 he received in 2009, and build a €782,413 shopping complex at the end of the breakwater bridge.

Then, under Labour, the bridge will lead to somewhere.

The slogan ‘direzzjoni suċċess’ will also be painted onto the base of the bridge and finally make sense.

    Better a bridge to nowhere than a government to nowhere.

    One hopes that Marisa explained to little Joey that the ‘bridge to nowhere’ scandal referred to a useless bridge built in Alaska where most towns and villages are isolated from each other. As far as I know, we do not have any remote or empty villages in Malta.

    • La Redoute says:

      I beg to differ. Remoteness is relative. What is the point of being close to the next village if it brings you no closer to clarity?

    Given that nearly all of my taxes are spent on others’ education, health care and social benefits, may I have a fraction in return in the manner I prefer?

    others’ education? (gawdejt u jgawdu uliedek minna din)
    others’ healthcare? (int dejjem privat tmur?)
    others’ social benefits? (possibbli qatt ma hadt xejn?)
    fraction in return? (x’tiehu lura? jaf tkun qed thallas ghal-logo gdid)

    • Ghoxrin Punt says:

      1. No, I had to pay for my own education (whilst working and paying tax and NI to boot), hence the Ghoxrin Punt and I have no kids who will benefit.

      2. Yes, always went private.

      3. No, never took anything, still working and still funding others.

      4. Yes probably, with the way things are going.

      So I pretty much agree with Jozef.

    The bridge helps enhance the port vista and makes the Grand Harbour look even better. It’s an investment.
