Stick with the business in hand, Dalli
Somebody has posted a comment on this website telling me that John Dalli (“who is doing a fantastic job in Brussels just as he did in Malta”) will not be wasting his time with me.
It then goes on to do precisely that, in a lengthy list of libellous insinuations about several people, myself included.
My twitching antennae told me, somehow, that if I checked the area registration for the IP number, it would be Brussels.
And sure enough, it is.
PATHETIC.
You’d think he hasn’t enough to be getting on with, with the Eurozone crisis and all.
And something else, while we’re on the subject. I was going to let this go, but really, it’s impossible to do so. Why doesn’t somebody ring up that Harry Vassallo and ask him what he thinks about the proposed Sargas power station?
He spent 20 years opposing every development project and spraying criticism left, right and centre. How does he feel now, with his boss Johnny Dalli pushing a coal-fired power station and talking carbon capture?
How does he feel that his EU Commissioner boss is pushing the sale of a power station in the first place? Harry smelled corruption in every nook and cranny for two decades but, God bless him, he smells none there and just carries on working for Dalli ghax jaqbillu.
I wonder how he feels, listening to his successor AD chairman Michael Briguglio slamming the project while his boss HuBastjan (how ironic, honestly) plasters himself all over Super One trying to sell it.
I wonder, yes, but I really don’t give a damn. Hoist by their own petard, both of them.

Why don’t you upload the comment in question?
[Daphne – You have the answer in my post above. It’s LIBELLOUS. If it were libellous only in my regard, then I wouldn’t have a problem, as I am not going to sue myself. But there are several others mentioned who would have grounds to sue me for publishing it.]
Do you seriously think that John Dalli would be typing away on his laptop from Brussels to prove some kind of point? Posting libellous comments when it has become obvious that you check the IP from each comment uploaded on this website?
Sounds a bit far fetched.
[Daphne – Far-fetched, given what you should know of the man by now? Why wouldn’t he take trouble to type a comment when he takes the trouble to visit Malta purely to appear on a Super One show? This is the man who took the trouble to type away at his laptop to report Lou Bondi to the Broadcasting Authority, remember. His great frustration is that there is no Blogs Authority. I know exactly what I’m talking about here, Richard Borg.]
Perhaps he posted the commentas a Cittadin Malti.
Your problem Mr Borg is that you disagree with everything that is posted here so why bother?
Try Saviour’s videoblog. You will most certainly be welcome there seeing the dismal number of comments he receives.
Most probably they were hoping you would do just that so that you will be then kept pre-occupied having to deal with a stack of fresh libel suits.
[Daphne – No, it was an attempt at getting a personal vindictive message across to me and others. It was quite obviously unprintable.]
Daphne, in a case like this, can you report the matter to the Commissioner?
I mean the Commissioner of Police, of course….
[Daphne – Why would I bother.]
The possibility of radio active toxic waste does not seem to bother the sensibilities of Dr. Vassallo and the FAA either.
I thought the Commissioner would give you 51 answers.
Dalli is simply unbelievable.
“wiccu qieghed “
Gobsmacked! How much is he on again? EU money well spent.
For anyone who’s met John Dalli up close, there’s one thing that stands out. This guy takes himself seriously. Far too seriously.
See that pained expression in the photo? That’s his standard one.
He makes every speech as if it were the final night of his farewell tour. Surely it can’t be that bad up in Brussels?
Let us repeat the facts, lest we forget them: John Dalli scoops up a six-figure salary as EU commissioner. On top of that he adds a bit more cash as consultant for firms in various, shall we say, hotspots.
The man’s loaded.
His career has been a string of crowning successes. The least he could do is smile. Smile, for fuck’s sake.
John Dalli is the archetypal accountant. Dead. Boring.
He cannot smile now; his conscience will not allow that.
It’s very ironic that nowadays die-hard Nationalists are lambasting John Dalli and it’s also sad to see Labour being so close to him.
Alfred Sant was right when he used to criticize him on the various alleged cases of corruption.
No wonder many think that most politicians are corrupt and are in it for what they can get out of it.
I may be missing something here but why is Dalli Harry Vassallo’s boss?
[Daphne – Because every EU Commissioner picks the people for his cabinet, and John Dalli picked Harry Vassallo (among others).]
