Sorry Silvio, you may be wrong. If the prime minister calls for a general election, let’s say this week, then Franco Debono will cease to be an MP immediately. Only ministers stay on as the care taker government.

In reply to Matt B.

If that is as far as Joseph’s brilliance can go, then the NP will be in for yet another victory.

How brilliant was Joseph when he appointed Karmenu Vella to write his election programme?

How brilliant was Joseph coming up with 51 inanities, labeling them as ‘solutions’?

How brilliant was Joseph’s inability to answer one simple question the PM asked?

Being devious is a bit different from being brilliant.

Joseph Muscat and his team may want to take a moment to rethink their response to the Franco Debono mess.

Whether the next government is PN or PL, it is almost guaranteed to have yet another razor-thin majority.

Party discipline will be essential. How does PM Muscat intend to sell that message to his backbenchers after having actively supported Debono’s nonsense?

In reply to Matt B. That is exactly what I thought. I wouldn't credit him with it. Maybe Joseph Muscat knows something that Lawrence Gonzi and the rest of us don't know.

Do you think his mother ever said things like, “Ara dak Joseph, dak mhux fil-klassi mieghek kien? Kif dak lahaq kap tal-partit u inti ghadek backbencher? Ara x’se taghmel ibni!”

How about giving this a thought:

If Gonzi goes for an early election, we will only have Debono around for a few more months.

If Gonzi goes for an election in March 2013, we will have Debono around for another 14 months.

Come on Daphne… do you honestly think that Joseph would be capable of such… brilliance?

It’s what Joseph’s good at, sitting pretty and edging others on; ‘jahdem in-nies’.

JPO having been the first and Musumeci a close second.

He’s trying very hard to keep it away from him though, scared the tables could be turned on him.

And with the kingmaker pulling him out of the Norwegians’ coal scuttle, he could be compromised.

Well Joseph, it comes with the package.
