Dropped your pills down the lavatory? Don’t ring the plumber. Ring Silvio Parnis.

    Silvio Parnis should get one of those mobile plans where everytime you receive a call, you earn credit. This should stop him from complaining about the old ladies who vote for him and then ask for a little bit of help, only to be the subject of his ridicule on TV.

    What’s wrong with the other guy’s ear? He seems to have a problem there.

    Today we can smile and think that this is funny. But the tragic reality is that this man could be a minister in a few month’s time.

    Oh god, is this man for real?

    I was never ashamed to live in the ‘south’ but if this man is made Minister for the South, than that will be something to be really ashamed of.

    He’s either dumb or a cynical fraudster.

    He could be one reason why operating systems aren’t improved, disrupting queues and duplicating functions.

    He didn’t mention the one who called him “biex jaqbdilha l-gurdien”.

        I don’t believe a word this man says. When I heard him bluffing about this particular experience that a lady in Paola called him while he was passing by so he could could catch a mouse for her, I thought he was making it up for laughs and admiration.

        So a man whose wife doesn’t look after their children rang Silvio, did he? Why would he do that?

    The problem with democracy as practised here and elsewhere is amply demonstrated by the election of people like Silvio Parnis.

    His ‘profession’ is a health assistant and he gets elected because he delivers pills to old people. Mind you he is an affable fellow but what does he know of the running of a country?

    At the same time I ask myself who would I vote for if I had a choice between these two: (1) a politician who calls me, sends me cards and helps me when I have some difficulty with government bureacracy but he has the IQ of a Bonobo or (2) A technocrat who is an expert in his field with a proven track record of achievements in his field but he is a little detached and aloof.

    [Daphne – The answer to that is obvious, unless you have the IQ and educational level of an old woman to whome Silvio Parnis delivers pills.]

      This is the same question that many people ask themselves, Daphne. Shall I vote for someone who ‘serves’ me or someone who is really good at their job? That is why I said that there is a problem with democracy as we know it.
