To PN MPs: if you have any sense of honour and decency, it’s time for you to speak out

JPOS emerging from parlliament last Monday after voting with Labour. He has the face of somebody who needs to find the local AA group.
Finally. Three of the members of parliament who Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando Smith repeatedly mentions in his kantaliena of disgruntled and sidelined individuals have stood up and more or less told him to go and stuff himself.
They should have done it before. What were they waiting for?
Now look what’s happened to them: they’ve ended up tarnished by his actions through allowing him to associate them with his vicious and disloyal behaviour and his erratic reasoning.
The MPs who have spoken out are Louis Deguara, Censu Galea and Jean Pierre Farrugia. Where are the others? They should speak out now before this heavy drinker, who once polished off an entire bottle of whisky in my presence, embarrasses them further.
Do they honestly want to go down with him when the electorate turns out at the polls? People are so disgusted by Pullicino Orlando Smith’s behaviour that they will punish at the polls anyone who they think is backing him or has collaborated with him in causing all this trouble.
Let him sink alone, though with that amount of whisky inside him, he’ll probably float like a keg.
If the MPs who make up Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando Smith’s stuck-record kantaliena list didn’t watch him on TVAM yesterday morning, they should get a recording and see how many times he mentions them, as though they are on his side and he’s their heroic frontman, while they cower in the shadows, too scared to come out and fight as bravely as he does.
Censu Galea, Jean Pierre Farrugia and Louis Deguara have challenged JPOS in parliament to name the 10 government MPs who he said wanted to vote against Richard Cachia Caruana last Monday.
I always thought Jean Pierre Farrugia was better than that, allowing himself to be associated with such drunken scum. Now he has finally stood up to be counted.
It was obvious to me at the time that a confidential email which Farrugia circulated to the PN parliamentary group was leaked by JPOS to his contacts at Labour/Malta Today.
But it was Farrugia who ended up looking bad for it, and JPOS has used his name in vain ever since, while Farrugia never did anything to distance himself from this by saying ‘Hey, stop bringing me up, because I’m not with you on this.’
Now JPOS is being challenged to mention the 10 MPs he said were on his side. But he responds that he will not reveal their names.
Like the classic dishonourable drunk – let’s not forget that a few months ago he had to be forcibly removed by security from a concert VIP area after getting into a drunken fight (he said, pathetically, that his drinks had been spiked) – likes to pretend to himself that he does the gentlemanly thing.
That’s not the reason why he won’t reveal the names, though. After all, he’s had little compunction about revealing and doing much worse.
It’s because they’re a figment of his drunken imagination.
The truth is that Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando Smith is a tragic drunk, flailing dangerously as he drowns. He is as isolated within the PN parliamentary group as a rat with plague-bearing fleas.
Even his little – in every sense of the word – friend Jesmond Mugliett seems to have understood the full magnitude of what they have done.
As for Robert Arrigo and all those other MPs who JPOS keeps mentioning, if they’re happy being used as justification for the wedding present which JPOS gave Carmen Ciantar last Monday, then so be it.
But they would be fools to allow it to happen. In their place, I know what I would do.
They should know that as a result of the deal which JPOS struck with Labour to please the woman he marries in August, largely by riding on the back of their “disgruntlement”, Carmen Ciantar’s star has risen so high in the Labour Party that she is now sitting directly behind Joseph Muscat in his public meetings.
If she is elected, she will be a cabinet minister. If she is not elected, she will be chairman of a major corporation. And Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando Smith, having outlived his usefulness, will have to watch out.

“Let him sink alone, though with that amount of whisky inside him, he’ll probably float like a keg.”
I won’t be surprised if after another a drinking session he includes in his list of disgruntled MPs the names of Lawrence and Michael Gonzi.
I agree with you that all PN MPs should speak out and let JPOS know what they think of him. I am sure, however, that no such declaration will be issued by John Dalli who like JPOS has made One TV his second home.
As for Mugliett, if he wants to regain some credibility (if he ever had), instead of whining about this blog, he should deny that his wife will be a PL candidate.
Now he wants the PN to expel Richard Cachia Caruana. Ara vera il-qahba milli jkollha ittiek.
Why doesnt he just go and hibernate for a 1000 years and leave us all alone.
He should be very busy preparing for his wedding or is Carmen doing everything on her own?

This man has no limits.
No, this man is being pushed beyond his limits. They won’t stop until the PN is as rotten as Joseph’s Labour. It will be rather difficult however, given the compact front the party can provide right now.
One mustn’t forget Jeffrey didn’t speak out during the conference, just a grumble to the relevance of a secret vote. What we’re talking about is four individuals, three mp’s and a commissioner, chickening out of the challenge they keep promising themselves and their supposed exPN. Some are so confused as to call themselves exgonziPN, work that out.
All those who think this is the PN coming apart had better look into what the consequences of this self perpetuating myth could be. In other words, who’s the candidate who can take the PN to another victory? I say the one who seems to upset Labour’s motives and designs most.
If someone hasn’t yet realised that all this happens to coincide with Labour’s only percieved chance of winning, they’re slow enough to keep thinking Joseph could be an alternative. They know they can’t face an electoral campaign, with its hard talk, and the questions which have to be answered, so all they do is to keep up the great distraction. A snap election suits only them, nobody else, not even their own voters.
And if Joseph thinks MEPA isn’t the competent authority when it comes to development, rest assured no one else will ever be. If that isn’t the writing on the wall, someone tell me what it is.
AD, FAA, Ramblers, Din L-Art Helwa, everyone who thinks we deserve better, than this entropy reducing us to mere spectators of this sordid negative campaign, must speak out. Is anyone hoping Joseph’s capable of abstracting himself into any symbol related to the aesthetics we’ve had the luxury to bicker about? Please.
There’s Musumeci’s allergy to the spirit of law, Chetcuti’s requests for subsidising abuse, Dalli’s biggest lie since carbon monitoring began, and Marlene’s speculative exercise killing policy waiting to be unleashed upon us.
Jospeh’s Labour refuses to acknowledge the challenge these islands pose to real development, they’re twenty five years late, incongruent and liable to the sense of entitlement their backers have taken over to their headquarters.
Never has the need for policy as instrument for the common good been so crystal clear.
Call the men in white coats.
Seriously, but is this politics or a bad bBrazilian soap opera?
It is exceptionally disheartening to see what Malta is going through on the political scene.
Furthermore it is exceptionally concerning when the world is going through a major economic recession and the EU needs to deal with MAJOR economic issues.
I am disgusted as these politicians haven’t understood their role and its importance especially in critical times.
JPOS nizel fil-qiegh nett u ghalkemm ma jridx li jiehu l-htija li jwaqqa’ l-gvern, bil-mod kif qed jissikka xorta se jilhaq l-istess ghan.
JPO calls on PN to expel Cachia Caruana
MP makes serious allegations in letter to PN Executive
(The Times)
Thank you for making available such information about people who strut on the public stage as if they are knights in shining armour.
It is about time that certain members of parliament be given the breathalyser test.
Actually, he’s into vodka now.
No, not vodka but Earl Grey 12 year old matured in oak.
[Daphne – Yes, that’s how I know it.]
His nose is really red and his eyes have that slitty glaze of a stone-drunk person.
JPO you are a disgrace. Be decent and resign.
The Nationalist Party should send out a general alert to all its MPs and future candidates to watch out for LP Delilahs bearing scissors with which to carry out some radical haidressing or more radical surgery still.
33 government MPs have already signed a declaration denying JPO’s allegations.
The ball is in JPO’s court. If he has any self respect left it is time for him to substantiate his allegations.
