Great question, Franco (Mercieca)

Labour candidate Franco Mercieca, who thinks he should be allowed to skip the Gozo ferry queue so that he can spend more time in bed and carry on living so inconveniently far from his hospital without actually being inconvenienced, asks on his Facebook wall:
F’idejn min tafda l-futur tiegħek u ta’ uliedek?
Stupid question. If it’s meant to be rhetorical, then it really works – though not in the way that Mercieca intends it to.
So who are we going to trust with our future and that of our children?
Tghidx mhux the people who told us to vote No to EU membership?

Not only told us to vote No, but also told us that fictional partnership won.
Would you let them use scissors without supervision?
[Daphne – Yes.]
Like Sant’s question at the (in)famous university debate: ‘Jirid bidla il-poplu Malti…..?’
[Daphne – Oh, that was legendary.]
And the other question “L-ewwelnett, min qed jaghmilha ta’ rasu?” See 2.48 and from 3.10 onwards.

That debate at University was not the end of the beginning for Sant. It was not even the beginning of the end.
It was, quite simply, the end.
(Plagiarised from that greatest of statesmen, the ‘Spirit of Chartwell’.)
“The end justifies the means.”
Plagiarised from…Joseph Muscat.
The real question is:
Having all that money, would I prefer to drink some decent wine during my late years in life, instead of some cheap piss?
Decent wine cannot be had for free.
Cheap piss is Mintoff’s style – especially if he has to pay for it himself.
Id-domanda tikxfu.
Ghaziz Franco Mercieca, Il-futur tieghi f’idejja jekk ma’ jimpurtax, Il-gvern mhu xejn hlief dak li ma’ jtellifnix.
