Talk is cheap

I have received yet another round-robin email from Kurt Farrugia, Labour’s Communications Coconut (tip him over, give him a little shove, and the size of his head should have him spinning down the hill like those weighted torpedoes we played with in the dark ages of the 1970s).

Talk is cheap, he tells me. So I should get the True Facts at a website he’s just set up at the Labour Coconut Factory, called www.gonzi.pn. (how clever, istja).

So I went there, browsed a little, and found it made up mainly – in the Labour Party’s time-honoured tradition – of grammatical errors, spelling mistakes, wishful thinking and…Super One videos.

And slapdash standards, of course. It should go without saying that nobody checked the Super One videos before uploading them. This is a screen shot of the opening sequence to a video about the scandalous situation at the general hospital, which is so much worse than lying on a stretcher in a St Luke’s corridor while some quack from a friendly communist dictatorship hastens your demise.
