Even on Inkontri yesterday he said that his ideas are more important than the economy.

What he doesn’t realise is that if this were not a democratic country he wouldn’t be around to regale us with this c***.

Ah and he also said we have all been seriously suffering in the past 4 years. Were we living on the same planet?

I think he had it all and he will be losing it all, political and legal career, all for the sake of revenge. He has now gone beyond his (and Gonzi’s) elastic limit. He is a sad tale of big ego backed by years of Maltese rat race academy.

The recent billboard depicting Franco instead of Gonzi comes to mind.

What was its purpose?
Was it coincidental or perfectly orchestrated by the person/s behind this whole charade?
Was it a sign for Franco to rock the boat?

I can keep going…..too many questions

I watched the Bla Agenda clip on your website.

It becomes clear that what we have been saying all along is correct: that he entered politics for his own benefit, to be put on boards and committees and ultimately be made minister.

No amount of denying by Debono can change my mind.

The endgame for this idiot will come with the first time he votes against the government. There will be an election. Franco will then become a political irrelevance, consigned to the dustbin of history as one ” not quite there”, an unbalanced nonentity and the object of ridicule.

If I were him, I’d look at getting that flight to Italy, or better still, some Godforsaken place like Burkina Faso.

In reply to Dee. He's going to be disappointed. As soon as the election date is announced Franco Debono will be forgotten. Labour won't even be able to quote him as he has said nothing that reflects badly on the government's performance.

In reply to Dee. Dee, I think his fame, or notoriety, will only last until the present situation is determined. He will then quickly pass into history, forgotten, by all but a few die-hards. I think his law career will also take a slide - who'd want such a neurotic and sel centred lawyer?

I think the honourable gentleman is actually enjoying all the attention (negative or otherwise) that he is receiving.

I bet that now, having realised that his political career is well and truely over – for surely he cannot be that detached from reality – he will stop at nothing to ensure that he is top item of the headline news 24/7 for the next few weeks or months.

In reply to Albert Farrugia. @Albert Farrugia Do you seriously think that Franco Debono's personality and behaviour are normal?

PN supporters have a very easy way how to deal with “dissidents”: just declare them insane, unfit of mind, Soviet Politburo style It is forgotten now, but in 2003 the PN even had a book published, written by a psychiatrist, about Alfred Sant. More recently, JPO has to be called “fit for a straightjacket”, on these very columns. Who’s next, I wonder?
