For eight months or so Alfred Sant continued his business-as-usual in Parliament with the help of the Speaker’s vote. And there was no MLP Tom, Dick or Harry who said that the government was illegitimate.

Even if parliament cannot pass any legislation until that appointed hour?

[Daphne – Why wouldn’t parliament be able to legislate, do you think? The Opposition isn’t obliged to oppose bills. Often, it votes in favour. And if not, and Franco Debono decides to oppose even the bills he favours, there is the Speaker’s vote.]

@ Old-timer: Not quite, he rejected the ‘sale e pepe’ look.

Definitely not seasoned with salt and pepper. It fell off long before.

Chortle chortle.

Wrong on one count, Anthony.

Do you think that Joseph will even allow Franco within a mile of his skip?

You think that he will be willing to throw a fox in a chickens’ coop?

@ old timer.

In this case, too much pepper, not enough salt.

“Greatness’ is something I never mentioned, what I said ‘ on the way to higher posts”

K.M.B. occupied the second highest post in the country. I am sure you will not classify him as a great man, and some others that I would not like to mention, either.

As to your remark about ‘fools’ I can assure you that you would be surprised as to the amount of these that abound in our country. We will be spending 80 million Euro to house some of them.

So let’s leave Shakespeare out of this.

Honestly, I admire your persistence.

Anyone giving him their vote again, EVER, needs to have his or her head examined. Even accepting his candidacy would be foolish to the extreme. You can’t trust someone, as unstable as Franco, in a position of power. He’s finished, in more ways than one, I would hazard to say.
