It’s ‘cum caute’ in his case.

I understand you have full editorial rights on this blog, but your deleting my reply to Fred Alcock’s comment seemed too arbitrary to me so I’m interested to know why.

[Daphne – I can’t remember the comment, still less why. Maybe I thought it offensive to third parties in some way.]

Regarding the fees charged by Charles Buhagiar, there has been a shocking revelation today …ask the Mosta Local Council.

Ghax ibqa zgur li Anglu kien jarrestah bhal ma ghamel lil hafna Nazzjonalisti fosthom Daphne li kien arresta ghal xejn u tefaghha f’cella kollha hmieg ghal numri kbir ta’ sighat.

U kemm hdimna ghalik biex tkompli tistudja meta riedu jaghlqu l-ikejjel fosthom San Alwigi fejn kont tistudja int precizament f’dak iz-zmien ta’ inkwiet kbir u arresti ta’ nies bl-addocc.

Daqsna batejt ghad demokkrazzija Dr. Franco Debono! Ghax wara li ahna in-Nazzjonalisti ghamilna dan kollu ghal nies bhalek tpattijulna b’dan l-ghemil. Grazzi ta’ kif irringrazzjajt lin-Nazzjonalisti ta’ qablek Dr. Franco Debono.

Does this journalist look at life the same way he looks at the question of who should run the country?

Jien haga tiskantani bejn iz-zewg partiti, li jekk tistaqsi kull domanda fuq liema suggett trid lil-membri tal-PN jirrisponduk fid-detall kollu, mentri meta tistaqsi lil tal-PL kull ma’ johrog minn fommhom huwa:

Dan misshom jaraw il-gurnalista tat Times u jikkritikaw, jekk huma vera gurnalisti, ghax min jaghmel mistoqsija biss mhux gurnalist. Dak ix-xoghol jistghu jaghmluh it-tfal.

Tell us which front page you are referring to so we know where Joseph’s emails have been going to.

The young ‘journalist’ must be one of the Lil’Elves in Joseph’s grotto.

They did imply that he was the most erect, however.

Going by his good command of the English language, I wouldn’t be the least surprised if he shows his name as, ‘Anglu Farrugia, (Loud Cum)’.

At least they didn’t describe him as “the Prime Minister’s pain-in-the-back…”
