Joseph Muscat’s nanna used to drag him to Mintoff’s horrible meetings when he was a nipper. He used to enjoy himself.

Italian Silvio’s parties are so popular that they are attended by nuns.

@emuscat In this case the “zoppicare” theory is the most likely. This person was NEVER ever a Labourite was not born in a Labourite family either.

@NOTMLP

I do not agree with your ‘zoppicare’ theory. in this case. I would say that the more you hear, listen and watch, if you can take it that is, the more you will realise that there is no option. Remember those wise words “Ma jinbidlux” They still stand.

And I have received a funny – as in odd – leaflet from star candidate Chris Fearne – it-tabib tat-tfal. What next – am I going to receive others from Anthony Zammit it-tabib tal-imsaren, l-iehor it-tabib tal-grizmejn.

Imagine if the Minister of Health were to do the same thing: leaflet minghand it-tabib tal-mohh.

Lined up next: Labour candidates describing themselves as it-tifel tal-perit jew it-tifel tad-direttur. We already have it-tifla tas-Salvatur.

This Mintoff and Lorry Sant style will continue to bring to their senses many who thought that a change of leader and emblem signified a change in mentality.

As for that Yana Mintoff, may I ask where she was when her father was compos mentis, and why did she come to Malta only now when he is not. Once a Mintoff always a Mintoff.

This week I attended a social (non political) function. I was left aghast when hearing someone who is forever boring everybody stiff with his name-dropping and bragging of his good (and not imaginary) contacts with the PN’s INNER circle, dominating the dinner table conversation by extolling Dom Mintoff’s manifold virtues as a statesman and politician, insisting that The Times building and the sacking of Fenech Adami’s house did NOT happen during Dom’s tenure as prime minister, and then going on to refer to certain internal PN party matters that he had no business to discuss in a restaurant full of people.

“”Chi va con lo zoppo comincia a zoppicare” was the logical conclusion made by most of his dinner companions when due consideration was taken of the sort of political tv station he has been frequenting of late.

The PN is behaving as if they have already lost the election.

I share her pain. My parents would also drag me off to their horrible outings back when I was a nipper.
