I’m from Zejtun and yes, it is predominantly Labour (98% if I’m not mistaken), so the other 2% have more balls than a Nationalist from, say, Sliema.

Some of my family have shown up to vote, been accosted at the school gates, had their vote taken away from them and God forbid if they so much as opened their mouth. Then they were given a kick in the backside to make them go away. This in the so called ‘Golden Years’ of Labour.

So when people think of Zejtun as the backward marshes of Malta, think about those people who stood up for what they believe in, come hell or high water, and don’t be so quick to judge.

Did the git ever try and book the tour of the Hypogeum? He’d be lucky to find a place before like in three months time! u le jahasra…alla jilliberana.

L-ewwel Anglu Farrugia lanqas jaf liema u l-ministru responsabbli imbaghad jigi Silvio Parnis u lanqas jghid l-isem…ahseb u ara kemm se jkunu kapaci jigbdu lejha l-investiment.

Jista Joseph Muscat jghidilna min fil-PL hu tekniku? Wara Anglu issa Silvio qed jghid li mhux tekniku.

At least he managed to give clear answers regarding the PL’s power station proposals…”heq…hemm…ma nafx ghax qed tistaqsi lili…l-esperti…jien mohhi fuq affarijet ohra…”

Ministru tal-Biki.

Tony, your contribution here carries a lot of weight coming as it does from an often unjustly vilified part of Malta.

Your style is inimitably plain and straightforward.

You have not changed one iota since our Lyceum days over fifty years ago.

Prosit tassew.

No plans to speak of, he was clearly making stuff up on the spot according to what he thought the interviewer was expecting. He completely froze a couple of times.

Someone should tell him that the Hypogeum doesn’t accept more than 80 visitors a day. If he wants to see queues outside a temple, he should go to the Tarxien temples, which are also in the south if he hasn’t noticed.

Tourists will always stay close to where the action is. Unless our towns are completely overhauled to turn them into touristic places, tourists will always stay in Sliema, St Julian’s Birzebbugga or Valletta. It’s not just a Maltese phenomenon but it happens all over the world. It’s impossible to have every spot in a country turned into a touristic spot.

For those who couldn’t stand going through all the videos, they should listen to the last three minutes of the last one where, feeling completely frustrated with his inability to answer any of the questions, he flips out and attacks the interviewer for not asking him the correct questions.

What an utter git.

Or maybe we should have a minister for each and every town and village.

Well… there is a minister for Gozo, not?! Is that not another ‘ghetto’?
