If the assessments of Debono&#039;s mental state are correct, would you hire him as your lawyer? His rants and his body language seem to justify such assessments.

Debono has lost trust not only with any political party in Malta, but with the general public of whatever colour, in his (in)capacity as a lawyer.

He has ruined his future, basically, and had better consult the best professionals his money can afford in order to get back on the road to sanity.]]></description>

Actually, I believe that he does have three resignations to make.  If I am not mistaken, he is still a parliamentary assistant within the Prime Minister&#039;s office. Why hasn&#039;t he resigned from the position if serving under the PM is so unbearable?

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - No, it&#039;s two resignations, not three. If he resigns from parliament it stands to reason that he is no longer a parliamentary assistant. Of course, if that&#039;s the only resignation he plans to make, then it&#039;s another matter, and the resignation must be made separately.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[...besides, if he resigns from the PN he can never really challenge Joseph Muscat, because he would have to take away JM&#039;s leadership and he can very well be rest assured that JM will not give up the party leadership not even if his life depended on it.

So, he would very much end up cutting his nose to spite his face and I really believe what you said in another post, Daphne - that Franco Debono is after leaderhip of the PN and nothing else.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Two resignations? I think he has &quot;3&quot; resignations to make.

Do you really think he has the right state of mind to perform his duty as a lawyer?

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - He&#039;s self-employed. There&#039;s no scope for resignation there.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>
