With the Labour Party’s track record and with remnants of the Labour ministers of the 70s and 80s still in prominent positions within the Party, REAL fear does exist especially since the LP never once, did it find it necessary to apologize for the violence and death, the arson and invasion of private residences, the misappropriation of private homes, the corruption of former ministers, the rape of two banks, leaving depositors holding the empty bag the denial of basic human rights and the condoning of the Party’s own thugs.

When fear is real, when the present language of the Party is off tune, then I would use some other word other than ‘scaremongering’.

Like an Easter egg. Somebody should tell him it’s Christmas not Eastertide.

I think I know what the surprise will be: he’s going to make a concrete policy proposal.

Anglu, mhux tekniku, (ondirekort).
Karmenu, ilu minn dejjem fil-politika, (ditto).
Joseph, bla esperjenza, (jixtieq).
George, deputat mexxej second hand, (bidu gdid).
Marlene, ghandha esperjenza, imma hazina, (JPO).
Jose’, jixtieq qatt ma’ kien fil-politika, (forsi jkun jista’ jcempel).
Edward, jisthajlu gdid fjamant, (kien wara l-purtiera).
Silvio, bhal Anglu, mhux tekniku (avolja diga’ ppreparat, mhux hafna tgerfix).
Joe Debono Grech, kien hu l-esperjenza (min ma jiftakrux?)
Leo, meta qatt kien fil-politika? (dak zgur mhux tekniku)

Kabinett dortu, kif se jaghmel?

nies teknici
nies li ghandhom esperjenza
nies li qatt ma kienu fil-politika

On all counts, what than, is he doing around?

[Daphne – Oh, you mean those plagiarisers and junior ekonomisti who are Labour only because their grandfathers burned down The Times, sacked the law courts and spoke with chains? Forgive me for not being that impressed.]

He said that all those involved in Labour politics “of the past” have disappeared. What about Sceberras Trigona, Joe Grima, Karmenu Vella, Joe Debono Grech, George Vella? – He also seemed to forget the KMB boast that the people involved in the Curia attack, were the “Aristocracy of the Workers” – come off it, Herrera –

“Nies li jaqdu biss lil tal-Labour”
“Nies li jaghmlu vendikazzjonijiet politici”
“Nies li messhom qatt ma kienu fil-politika”
“Nies li jwaqqghu il-Partit Laburista u l-Pajjiz ghac-cajt”

But then, these would not surprise us.
