Mosta bettil ov de tajtins: glieda ghan-number ones bejn Jason u Anglu

Published: June 8, 2012 at 6:03pm

Recently we were told that Jason Micallef will not be standing on the Labour ticket at the upcoming general election.

He said that he had been persuaded to make this sacrifice for the party.

Quite frankly, I don’t see why Joseph Muscat should have thought Micallef any more embarrassing or compromising than, say, Yana Mintoff.

So I suspect the real problem is an internecine war with Anglu Farrugia, id-deputat mexxej, who considers Mosta to be his territory and who won’t take any competition there from other Big Guns.

Now things seem to have changed. I hear that Jason Micallef is knocking on Mosta doors in a trail of what they call ‘house visits’.

I have baked a cake and wait eagerly for the moment he rings my doorbell. I have so much to tell him.

    Make sure that you’ll have a camera on standby – ready to immortalise the expression on his face when he sees, of all people… you. Once you’re at it, make sure that you have a good audio, we’d love to hear your eulogy.

    [Daphne – Thing is, I don’t get any visits from political candidates. I wonder why.]

    I suggest you put a lot of white cream on that cake.

  3. Neil Dent says:

    I suppose a cake recipe from one of your cookery books, Daphne? Please share!

    Mind you, I think it will have long gone mouldy and stale before Jason comes a-calling.

    What are the cake’s ingredients?

  5. toyger says:

    Both Jason and Anglu are doing the rounds. I have taken to screening my visitors before I open the door. I really don’t have time to waste with these sorry asses.

    [Daphne – Oh come on! Don’t be selfish. A story for this website comes knocking on your door and you refuse to let it in? Invite them in, make them a cup of tea, ask them all sorts of interesting questions, then come here and tell us all about it. “So, I hear you had a nice time in India. What was that elephant’s name again?” “So Mr Micallef, I hear you’re a keen reader of recipe books.” ]

    Don’t forget the whipped cream.

    Attakk fahxi b’oggett tond u li jcappas.

  7. Galian says:

    I wouldn’t put it past him, Daphne. He tried to say hello to me last week, for the first time since he became secretary general of his party.

  8. Rover says:

    If he turns up wearing his tight white pants, do make sure not to accidentally drop your cake on him.

    Wake up Europe!
    In my opinion you are handling the situation by the foot.
    How long are we going to have on our shelves imported imitations the like cigarettes, shoes, clothes, toys, computers, drinks and more. These emerging markets are taking our jobs? and what about their contraband sent, when we are lucky and find some we confiscate the small per cent that we catch, and the ones that get away?
    These countries who pay their works an average $10 a week yet plan to go to the moon and beyond in the next 20 years they not only are sucking their people but ruining the world.
    And what is Europe doing other than picking on its own feathers? ”

    Dan mil “foot” qabadha !

      ‘…They not only are sucking their people…’

      I wonder if EasyJet or Ryanair fly there from here?

    You were a ‘popular’ target this evening on Xarabank.

    Blokkijiet telghin u nizlin.

    [Daphne – I’m not surprised. Daqs kemm huma ta’ wara l-muntanji. You know what I always say: there are two Maltas.]

  11. Stephen says:

    MPs the like of Franco find it convenient to try gather sympathy votes (does not work with me) by appearing on TV shows with their family, but then they can’t handle the criticism this can attract.

  12. Kurt Mifsud Bonnici says:

    You baked a cake?

    [Daphne – I bake lots of cakes, Kurt.]

    • Kurt Mifsud Bonnici says:

      Interesting. How about one for the winner of a caption competition? Just to make Silvio “Coffee Morning” Parnis jealous.

  13. elephant says:

    I think, vote-wise, Franco Debono is “finished”. I do no think that anyone in his proper senses – either PN or LP, would trust this spoilt brat any more
