I think she is a riot and would be mega fun to hang out with.

We are so quick to judge and talk crap about people who might not conform to our ideal behavioural standards and are a bit quirky.

Well, this is what keeps the world going round. Most of us have similar feelings as Tina, but we don’t go round and tell everyone about it. We just bottle it up.

In reply to Gahan. Some years ago I watched an interview with her father. He could sound funny but was very brave. Once he crossed an empty dock at the Dockyard on a wirerope.

In reply to H.P. Baxxter. The same is happening in Italy "la fuga dei cervelli".

But … but … she’s brilliant! Yes yes NQOSD and all that, but class-war and snobbery aside – I think she’s amazing.

She’s funny, pokes fun at herself and has no pretensions.

We should set up a Tina L-Maltija Fan Club.

Or better – she should have her own TV programme. That’s one I’d definitely watch – t’would be miles better than all those sticks-up-their-arses-trying-to-be-puliti presenters that abound.

I’m only half joking about the fan club you know :)

She manages to steal your mind off the initial view of the guy’s humongous navel flashing from behind the jacket with 1 button about to pop. This phenomenal Tina made that half-drunken slob look like polished royalty.

Haha hilarious! But I seriously don’t get the bashing from all of you. Yes, she’s a bit crass, but I think she’s like any other British working-class woman as I think the British and Maltese working-class are very similar.

Her attitude, manners, choice of language, aspirations and tastes are very similar to the ones associated with the British working-class. Y

ou’ll find women like Tina in both Maltese and British societies. So I think she fits in quite nicely in working-class Britain.

On a side note, I don’t mean my comment to be read in any way as derogatory towards working-class people as I think the latter, despite their usually poor taste and manners, are most often the kindest and sweetest of people.

In reply to Brian. Perfect match.

In reply to Gahan. She is. The picture on one of the walls in her house showing about ten people in white all lined up is from the 60s when the Falzon family gave shows around the island. Her father Joe was also called Mr. Powerful and is a fan of Steve Reeves.

In reply to franky. She's on TV, Frank. She willingly went public, so the public is free to comment accordingly. As for me, it shames me that a little country attracts attention though such shallow people.
