Maybe they went to Sicily to buy hairclips from the market - http://www.frigintini.it/modules.php?name=News&#038;file=article&#038;sid=79 (Caroline Farrugia being Anglu&#039;s daughter.)

“What impressed me in Marina di Ragusa is the amount of make-shift tents which were erected where street hawkers displayed all their wares and where we bought quite a few things with very cheap prices, including, fancy hair clips.”

Dear Gino, describing Anglu&#039;s daughter as &#039;chunky&#039; is not in anyway a personal attack. 

It&#039;s a fact that she is chunky and no amount of pretending she isn&#039;t will make it go away. 

Daphne could have easily used a more offensive description, but chose to be relatively kind.]]></description>

Crocodile tears which show a weak political maturity, and that&#039;s the last thing we need from a Labour deputy prime minister (prattikament).

What would he do if he were the Deputy Prime Minister and the press is against him?  Lie down and sob?

Surely he would not be in a position to turn to Gonzi and ask for the help which in his position as a politician he is not entitled to get.

Would he send the police, or would he call the Labour marmalja?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sometimes I tend to agree with Dom Mintoff - some university students turn out to be rebels like the brigate rosse. In Malta  they  became rebels of another kind. Instead of  acknowledging  that it was a Nationalist  government that made it possible for &#039;mature students&#039; to attend university and for policemen to become undergraduates on full pay and with no loss of benefits (on the contrary, with incentives to study) they bite the hand that fed them.

One of them was a Commissioner of Police who ended in prison and we all know what Inspector Gadget is capable of.

For those still hankering after the Golden Years, please note that you would have remained the proletariat, with no hope of going to university or even getting a proper job, still less embarking on a full-blown career.

Here&#039;s the irony: if Labour had stayed in government, Anglu Farrugia would have had to stay in the police force. He would never have been able to go to university (not only because he wouldn&#039;t have got in, but because he wouldn&#039;t have had the income to do it on). He would never have become a lawyer and he would never have gone into politics, because police officers are not permitted to take part in political life. And so he would never have become deputy party leader and possibly, deputy prime minister.

Anglu is going to become deputy prime minister for the same reason that he was able to become a lawyer: because the party to which he is so committed was booted out of power in 1987.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Miskin, all the suffering! He never talks about how well he and his family are doing under GonziPN though, does he? 

How well?

So well that when his dear Caroline was a law student (saret avukat bhad-daddy) she would travel abroad and nearly clear out the shops. 

Good luck to her and all that, but please stop whining about suffering. These people don&#039;t know the meaning of the word.
