    Didn’t he broker Joseph’s secret agreement with China?

    China’s aggressively building its interests in north Africa, opposes any trade legislation with the EU and is investing heavily in coal based technology to power itself.

    Mintoff’s foreign policy was always one of reducing us to a satellite state. Alex calls it the Mintoff method.

    Not to mention what jobs they have in mind, where the living wage concept could lead and what due importance will be given to European standards of health and safety, product quality, work practices, R&D intellectual property and so on.

    No wonder Joseph can’t talk.

    So what AST is essentially saying is that it didn’t matter that millions of Libyans were being ruled by a mad and sadistic tyrant and that the whole region was destablised because of him, as long as poor Malta could get cheap oil by sucking up to him! Is this what Labour’s “realpolitik” amounts to?

    How come AST did not mention anything about the ‘airspace deal?” Can anybody enlighten me please? Or better leave it hush hush?

    This must be fake, because no one in the right state of mind would say such things, let alone someone in such a position.

    [Daphne – It’s not fake. That’s definitely Alex Sceberras Trigona’s voice, tal-pepe accent and all. (I thought I’d rub it in, imbasta joqghodu jghajru lil tal-pepe).]

    There goes AST with another “cunning plan” on how to reduce the price of electricity by half: bring back Gaddafi, and then we go begging, first to Treiki, and then to Gaddafi “ghal-barka,” so that he discounts his oil price by 50%.
