That man is on Super One television’s breakfast show AGAIN
Anyone who though that Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando’s resignation from the Nationalist Party and the summer parliamentary recess would give the country a break from his severe neurosis is wrong.
The man is seriously addicted to the limelight, can’t live without being in the news (even if for all the wrong reasons) and mistakes media attention for importance and significance, which he must feel at some level all makes up for his failed ambition to become a cabinet minister and lord it about in other ways.
He is not going to shut up until he is out of parliament altogether and he is utterly irrelevant. Then the cameras and the reporters will not want to know.
If I were running Super One, from both the political angle and the readership tedium angle, I would pack it in with Jeffrey. He is boring, tedious, and he speaks in that neurotic monotone that irritates listeners no end.
He is getting married in three weeks. Let’s hope he gives us a long, long honeymoon and that he won’t be speaking to the press from wherever it is that people like that go for their post-wedding trip nowadays.
He has at least given Facebook a complete rest since his totally embarrassing public display of childish behaviour in regard to the university lecturer Antoine Vella.

“JPO: I should have resigned earlier, I feel liberated”
These are the only sensible words that came out of his mouth.
Yes, Jeffrey, you should have gone, and from your seat, about four years ago. Then the whole country would have actually been liberated, and not just felt it.
Now give us all a break, marry your two-faced Laburista, and go and honeymoon in some remote part of the world where there is no internet connection or mobile phone coverage.
Then scurry back in time for the election, because your bedroom puppet-master will want to come back to vote for her best friend’s husband to become prime minister, even if you plan not to vote at all.
Better still, once you are not going to vote and your bedroom puppet-master is, presumably, perfectly capable of taking a plane on her own, just stay in the most remote part of the world till the following election in which you intend to present yourself as a candidate.
Then see whether we’ll vote for you.
He says he feels liberated. So do we.

If he’s feeling liberated, just imagine how all of us will feel once he’s given the boot after the next election.
Jeffrey, the full liberation of total oblivion awaits.
Isn’t he satisfied yet? Aren’t all the ‘clauses’ fulfilled?
After the resignation of Richard Cachia Caruana as ambassador, we all knew that the call for the latter’s expulsion from the PN was uncalled for and an extra. It was only done to push matters to the extreme.
I believe it was a very orchestrated plan. When there is no logic to what happens, that is always the case. Hidden agendas galore. So much for New Labour, movements and fresh ways of doing politics.
As reported by The Times,
Dr Pullicino Orlando said he had no contact with Opposition leader Joseph Muscat.
Would Michelle and Carmen oblige and pass on some messages, please.
No contact? Rubbish.

Why am I not surprised that JPO has again gone running to Super One?
It has become his second home, and probably after he has been taken completely over by his Labour activist spouse, he will take up permanent residence there.
On the other hand, the compromise solution announced by Gonzi yesterday evening is a total abdication of his powers, because now JPO will become the PN’s adviser and in effect, he will be holding Gonzi by the figurative b***s.
And don’t forget that Franco Debono cannot stay much out of the limelight himself, and he has already declared that he will vote against the government if Austin Gatt is still around in October.
Time to call a spade a spade. Call an election, sack the three rebels and hope that the real Nationalists, having witnessed the opportunistic opposition, will flock back to the party.
Will he make a pre wedding video like those we saw earlier?
Jeffrey’s totally embarassing public display of childish behaviour (well, one particular instance of it, anyway):

If he doesn’t get the attention he craves, he’ll eventually put a gun to his head after leaving a suicide note explaining that They made him do it.
Give him his own spotlight for Christmas.
“His absolute loyalty was to his constituents and their mandate, Dr Pullicino Orlando said.”
Really? In what way?
And we thought Norman Lowell was deranged.
“Polonius:
[Aside] Though this be madness, yet there is method in’t.” (Hamlet)
If JPO would ever need in the future to rid himself of a wife he would always be able to quote his present shenanigans in support of any claim that he was too “ill” to realise what he was doing when he married.
This could well be his pre wedding video in the making.
xtipretendi li jmur fuq Net jew TVM (net2) u jzebilhuh Ms. Pepe Jaqq?
(ippublikah! mela wiccek biss ghandek ta’ ragel? Bajd maghndekx?)
Hate to say it but the Cachia Caruana affair has amazed me.
First the blunder of accepting the motion, then, what amazed me most was the Foreign Minister’s silence.
He should have BARKED out loud in Parliament saying that if there was anyone who had to face the music it was him.
I am further amazed that the PN, which is full to the brim with “lawyers” faild to see these points; unless of course everyone is happy with the status quo in politica. – Amazing
Prime Minister Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando Smith 19th July 2012 – Present
JPO, Franco and Dalli may be trying to circumvent Mcdonalds’ hold on potato-product advertising during the Olympics, when they hog the media with those huge chips on their shoulders.
If I were JPO I will take a long long honeymoon, at least up until Christmas. Then we’ll see what Dr Gonzi will come up with.
I thought you were JPO. Aren’t you?
The best thing that has happened to the PN is when Jeffrey resigned yesterday from the party.
No one noticed that at the end of that program , the would- be despoiler of Mistra ‘s ”Wirdien Artna” got plenty of mileage as well with plenty of gratuitous remarks on how the government was neglecting the valleys.
Dan Jeffrey ma hu qed jaghmel xejn hlief litteralment jiehdu f ghajnu bil-kostitwenti tieghu u il-gvern waqt li jiehu issalarju ta’ deputat parlamentarju u chairman .
Both share the same character trait, and they are resolute in their method of achieving their goals.
I’ve suspected for a long time that the opposition to this government has been based on one axiom, albeit an unverbalised attitude: an allergy to work, performance and motivation to respect deadlines.
Then I see Joseph’s updates to his work in progress. It’s more than four years now, and still nothing has gone beyond the brainstorming. And now he’s gone on holiday.
Muscat removed Richard Cachia Caruana to disable the power of incumbency of this government.
Will you allow me a last one?
I think I know why Jeffrey and Franco hate each other so much. It’s because they’re always stealing each other’s slime-light.
