GLORY, GLORY, ALLELLUIAH…
May you rot in hell, you couple of heinous bastards.
I’m sticking this to the front page for a while so that you can scroll through the comments beneath. Twenty-five years of what we thought was normality, and then we find that the younger Labour generation are still rancid Mintoffjani, just as awful as their fathers and grandfathers who burned down The Times, sacked Eddie Fenech Adami’s home, created general mayhem and, above all, voted Labour in 1981, 1987 and 1992, when it was a clear demonstration of cracked thinking to do so (it still is, but those years were the absolute worst).
What is it going to take – another 10 generations?
….but quite frankly, the saints will probably go marching OUT once he walks in.
How very considerate of Mr Mintoff to make this one of my best birthdays ever.
Now excuse me while I rush out to celebrate.
I don’t speak ill of the dead and ordinarily I would consider any such behaviour to be totally crass, but in this case I have to make an exception.
This is the man without whom my life and the lives of those around me would have been completely different. Malta would have been completely different. It would have been so much better.
Dom Mintoff was appalling and hateful, an absolute sociopath, Malta’s Muammar Gaddafi, and let’s not be hypocritical and pretend otherwise just because he’s finally popped his worn-out, miserable clogs.
He should count himself lucky he died in his bed and not like his godawful friend across the water, which is what he truly deserved.
Let’s leave the hypocrisy and the panegyrics and the false rewriting of history to the Mintoffjani and the mealy-mouthed.
Of course, this probably means that his weasel of a daughter will be elected on a rush of sympathy and misplaced sentiment. But we’ll worry about that later.

Ha naraw kemm nghidu glory glory Hallelujah la tmut dil-bala mgiddma Galizia,…imbad naraw kemm imorru niccelebraw by cracking open those bottles ta Baxxter. Vera nies li ma jisthaqqilkomx tissejhu cittadini ghax mintomx ghajr annimali bil-pedigree mcappas ma sormkom ja qatta hodor…..
Jien m’ghandix pedigree ghax jien working class iktar minnek, u gej minn familja hamalla.
Int u kwazi Malta kollha m’intomx kapaci tiddistingwu bejn il-persuna privata u l-figura pubblika.
Ic-champagne kellu toghma qarsa lbieragh, u taf ghaliex? Ghax irrealizzajt li l-mewt tal-persuna privata mhix se twassal biex tizzarma l-legacy pubblika.
Anzi, bil-logika mnejka tal-Maltin, il-mejjet issirlu agiografija, kien min kien u ghamel x’ghamel. Jigi trasfigurat f’qaddis intokkabbli.
Ix-xorb ta’ champagne b’celebrazzjoni, bhaz-zfin ta’ victory jig fuq il-qabar, huwa att kontra l-legacy ta’ Mintoff.
Imma ma nippretendix li int u d-99% l-ohra tifhmuha din. Ghalik, dan huwa biss “man kneeling down LOL heheh LOLZ”:

Diga` qed nara eluf ta’ kummenti, hafna minnhom minn politici Nazzjonalisti, ghaddejjin bl-idjozija Maltija, li “whatever he did, good or bad, we must respect the memory of a dead person.” What utter tosh.
This is not about a person. It’s about a public figure.
It’s about a legacy. Unless that legacy is dismantled, brick by brick, the man’s death changes nothing.
Imma ma nistennix li int se tifhem x’qed nghidlek, jew li se tinbidel xi haga. Ghalhekk id-Dom Perignon kellu toghma qarsa.
@ Daphne I am not yet sure what runs through your disturbed mind/head. Whether you have any conscience, love, respect, any sort of human feeling towards anybody or anything! Sometimes I wonder whether you have received any yourself throughout your life!
I simply see you as a total psychopath who is struggling to show the world the hatered you have for the ones around you simply because you have not yet fullfilled your dreams or achieved what you have long waited for.
I would be ashamaed of myself, in these days, in such a civilised community, to write such aricles. Having said that I am not ashamed to openly express my opinion agianst you (or anyone who supports you)! I hope that sometime you realise that the world will definetley be a better place, certainly not through the passing away of a political leader (whoever he may be)! It will be a better place if people like you never existed or were not given the right to utter any word, betterso write down whatever goes through their sick minds!
Hope God has mercy on your soul when the day comes – unlike most people who read your blogs!
And finally, may Dom Mintoff rest in peace – at the end of the day, good or bad, he was a human being like the rest of us and throughout his life he struggled to give the working class a better life! So sorry that, unfrotunately, I can see no struggle from your side for anyone in Malta to get a better chance of life!
Joseph – EX PN supporter.

Kondoljanzi lill familja Mintoff
RIP Perit missier Malta hielsa
well said Mintoff died with dignity and respect she will die with nothing shamefull and discusting
[Daphne – ‘Mintoff died with dignity.’ Love it.]
H.P. Baxter, yesterday was the death of the person. The death of the public figure was in 1998, when he retired from politics.
@H.P Baxter – Yes, unfortunately, Mintoff’s legacy has been being dismantled for the past 25 years by this present government, we have been seeing the social services he introduced perishing one by one, gone are the days when the citizen gets a house from the government with a really cheap price, and gets a subsidized loan as well, gone are the rights of the workers, pension is on the brink as well, and God knows what’s next. I remember the times before Mintoff came into power when the workers had no minimum wage, no leave, no 40 hour week, no bonuses, no sick leave, no pension, I still remember the time before Mintoff, when wage increase used to be given by percentage, does who earn a lot get a big increase and those who worked for pennies got next to nothing, women had to work with a wage far less than men (because according to the P.N of those days, women were only meant to stay in the kitchen) they had no right to vote, beggars on the streets, isn’t this all the legacy of this great man? And then people with sorry arses like you and this horrible bitch refer to this greatest statesman Malta has ever seen like this? Shame on you. At least you had the decency to admit that you’ve got no pedigree and that you are coming from a “hamalla” family!
lise, you are talking like this because you can. If you spoke like this under a Labour regime (about Labour) no one will ever hear from you again.
@ Joseph.
“Having said that I am not ashamed to openly express my opinion agianst you (or anyone who supports you)!”
Joseph, are you sure you are not ashamed to openly express your opinion against Daphanie when hiding your identity behind the pseudo name of “Joseph”?
Can you respect our intelligence please?
din qatt ma mitiela xi hadd eghziez f’hajjita biex tghaddi dawn il-kummenti f’mument daqshekk kommoventi ghall-familja Mintoff u kull min lill-Perit iqisu bhala missieru jew l-idolu tieghu! Daphne ahna f’pajjiz demokratiku nghixu imma poplu edukat ukoll, tkunx injoranta pls.
Baxxter ghandek zball meta ghedt ‘bil-logika mnejka tal-Maltin, il-mejjet issirlu agiografija, kien min kien u ghamel x’ghamel. Jigi trasfigurat f’qaddis intokkabbli’
Zball ghaliex skond proverbju klassiku Ruman ‘de mortuis nihil nisi bonum’. Jigifieri ‘dwar il-mejtin tghid xejn hlief it-tajjeb’. Dan ma qalux xi plebew hamallu imma nies kolti bhal Cicerun ecc. Jigifieri li wara l-mewt issib xi haga tajba anke f’mostru hu sinjal ta’ civilizzazjoni. Ir-rumani antiki kellhom hemm minkejja s-salvagismu taghhom.
Ir-Rumani qalu wkoll “bonis nocet quisqus malis perpercit”.

Nice one (Y)
hahahahaha
Yes, Mintoff was, was he not?
Daphne ghadha erba’ klienti puliti!
Mhux ahjar flixkun xampanja?
Mur, hadd m’hu se jwaqqfek jew jikkalkulak. Sa frattant, jekk int nazzjonalist anqas il-partit tieghek ma jaqbel mieghek siehbi, ghax jekk tghaddi min quddiem il-kwartieri taghkom bil-bandiera mezzasta kienu.
J’alla meta tmut int l-familjari tieghek jisimaw l-istess kliem li qed tghaddi int, bl-arroganza kollha tieghek Daphne.
U l-PN hawnhekk qed jaghmel l-izball tipiku Malti: il-laghqizmu. Falsehood for the sake of reconciliation. Which will never happen anyway, the way things are going.
Bandiera mezzasta indeed…. Lanqas il-protocol ma jafu. Jekk veru rridu nnizzlu l-bandiera mezzasta ghax miet ex-prim ministru, mela dan ghandu jsir fuq bini tal-Gvern ta’ Malta, mhux tal-partiti. Bah. Imbasta avukati.
This must be the blasphemy of the century – the PN should have never hoisted its flag at half-mast at the passing away of the beast who could never do them ever any worse than it did, irrespective of this being state mourning or not.
Corner all the genuine PN supporters and see how (inwardly) insulted they all feel; this must be the worst of all recent mistakes we have suffered from the administration of our party. Please mark your actions please; stop acting blindly.
A typical Nationalist; vindictive, arrogant, full of bull, masochist, suffers from acute paranoia, unrespectful, inconsistent and full of HOT AIR. I dare to go celebrate in Bormla or pop your Champagne bottles during his funeral.
Filwaqt li naqbel mieghek li dawn ma humiex kummenti li ghandom jinghidu etc, rrid nwissik li :
Qieghed tizballja tigeneralizza, m’ghandekx ghax tghid ghalija, ghax inti qieghed tinsulta numru sabih ta’ nies Maltin li jivvottaw lil dan il-partit, prova tkunx hekk inti ukoll bi kliemek.
Tigenerilzzzax bir rispett kollu
Pretty big words for a Mintoff supporter
perhaps you mean disrespectful ?
ill crack open your head
Baxxter
How one may rejoice on the death of another and post it everywhere for all to see is simply crass ignorance of the lowest kind.
Surely can’t you keep these kinds of sentiment to yourselves or do you feel so relieved at the passing away of an old man that you feel you have to crack open the bottle?
The mind boggles. And you have the balls to call others names?

I knew people who always said that they would celebrate when he is gone, but unfortunately they died before him at a young age because of all the terror and destruction he caused. Father of Malta, ma tarax! Malta’s very own Gaddafi, more like. Finally, freedom from this hate-driven human being.

I would rather pray for you and hope your hatred be turned in love.
Listen you uneducated, rude twat. I was not around during his time but I was raised with an understanding of human respect. If you have the nerve and cheek to say these things, I would say to you, “look in the mirror” how can you say this, you are just a petulant child with a very small understanding of what really happened? I will tell you how. You are a fu**ing loser and have absolutely no respect: 1-for your elders 2-your betters 3-anyone with a brain. Really, get over yourself and let people mourn for their own and get off your paper soap box and let people be. I am somewhat sure you actually live in Malta, or you would not have given your obviously second hand opinion that is just a small persons way of sucking their own thumb. What a Loser. Get a Life!!

ex pn turned mintuffjan dan qisu :) lol
I wonder what Fredu Sant is doing.
I am ex PN and have had to be careful about what I say because of the bad experience I was forced through. Dom Mintoff was not perfect. He never pretended to be. He did do a lot of good for the common people and the Nation as a whole.
Hatred, sarcasm and cheap one sided comments only show how much more we have to learn. One thing is for sure, the man was a good negotiator. Lord Carrington said so. He did not give away public assets like John Dalli did when he sold Mid Med Bank for next to nothing without authority. Dom Mintoff and all the Maltese who participated in Malta moving forward are heroes. Dom Mintoff had a belief and the Maltese made Malta what it is because of people like him.
Dom Mintoff the MAN and ARCHITECT with determination and foresight who gave the MALTESE NATION it’s EDUCATION, DIGNITY ,SELF-DETERMINATION AND FREEDOM. MAY HE R.I.P.
Dom Mintoff was controversial in his life and he is controversial in his death. Due to this he will always be remembered good or bad.
A lot of people have much to learn. This man fought against all odds and the big Western powers at a time when all other countries were going through a change demanding their Independence from colonialism. Has Malta lost its freedom and Sovereignty since joining the EU? I think it has.
[Daphne – A very convincing imitation of an ex PN. You got the tone just right. ]

Dear Daphne, About the factories: so you think that the chinese people that work in factories, that manufacturing jeans are idiots or have something wrong, because chines people work in factories that what ara you saying?
[Daphne – No, they’re not wrong. They have no other opportunities. Factory work moves where there are the most desperate people. That alone should tell you most of what you need to know about how great life was under Mintoff.]
you’re crass in the best of times but this takes the cake.eat it and i hope you choke bitch,cannot beleive that such a roman catholic,more maltese catholic i call them have such venom.store it till you meet satan ,you lump of shit

For Daphne this is water over a duck’s back!
Keep it up Daphne, give them stick.
int iblah xint?
You see how important Mintoff the Great was u had a file named MINTOFF on your desktop. No one has a file named Daphne on his desktop…..well maybe Beelzebub has
[Daphne – Maltastar and the Labour Party’s satellite sites, including Malta Today, certainly do have folders called Daphne. And of course I have a folder called Mintoff – where else would I file his pictures?]
Maybe you get his pictures from between your mother’s legs bitch!!
Unlike most of the Labour supporters here I am using my name. This because I am used to violence being directed at me by the MLP supporters, I am used to victimization simply because of my political leanings.
So no I am not afraid and never was to publish my name.
Those of you who regard Mintoff as their father have a God given right to do so, but they only do so because they owe what they acquired to him, no they did not apply for the jobs they have or had but they were posted there with the blessing of the MLP (in those days Mintoff alone was the MLP.)
Those who own houses nowadays worth over 200 K in Pembroke and other GHS areas owe it to Mintoff. But no Nationalist ever got those benefits.
The words and threats here scare me for only one reason, my kids brought up in peaceful time in Malta since 1987 are going to have to face these people who have never changed, but have only been sleeping and bottling up their anger because they were afraid that they would be victimized like we were in their days.
So let us all pray that we do not get another Mintoff and that these so called MALTESE CHANGE THEIR WAY as otherwise we are in for trouble.
To those who used degrading words I say why don’t you show your names and tell us how you got your jobs.

@ poor heart broken loll, you actually make an important point. Joseph Muscat was probably very keen not only to become the youngest Labour PM after Mintoff, but also to become Labour PM while Mintoff was still around. This last plan has now failed. Hopefully, the other one will fail too.

You must be kidding me? That man has done more good to Malta and its people than you will ever hope to do. You have no right to talk against him that way, especially now that he has died. If you have a personal grudge against him, do us all a favour and keep it to yourself. You must be ashamed of yourself. May you rot in hell like all witches deserve.
[Daphne – ‘You have no right to talk against him that way’: Mintoffiani always did have a peculiar interpretation of free speech.]
There is a difference between free speech and hate speech. Make the distinction D.C.G. The argument of free speech and freedom of expression have been used as an excuse to justify some very shameful acts. Show some integrity and don’t stoop to such levels.
You may not have agreed with some or many of his views in life but respect the dead, or is your copy of the bible missing some pages in the new testament.
Yes they did, just like they were in favour of the many social benefits that all of you now benefit from. :) However, there always is a limit and personally I feel that you just skipped that limit. Respect is another thing and it has nothing to do with freedom of speech…it seems that you lack that as well.
You speak as if free speech is an absolute right Daphne.
[Daphne – All rights are absolute, Fuck You (gosh, how I enjoyed saying that). That’s why they are rights. When rights appear to be conditioned or qualified, it is really a negative effect on the rights of others that we are talking about. One example: there is a right to privacy. The right to freedom of speech cannot be used to curtail the right to privacy. Nor, in the case of public persons, can the right to privacy be used to curtail the right to free speech.]
Do you not realise that you’re inculcating violence?
[Daphne – Have you read these comments here, Fuck You? Then don’t talk to me about violence. There is nothing violent in what I wrote, but the comments that came in response are quite unbelievable if you were not, as I was, raised under Labour and had to deal with all this as normal life.]
What are you gaining out of this?
[Daphne – I forgot for a minute there that in Labour/Maltese culture, you do things because you ‘get something’ out of it. That’s why you lot can’t understand what I am, what I do or that it’s normal elsewhere. And that’s why you say I must be paid to do it, because you wouldn’t do it unless you were paid handsomely. But then you couldn’t anyway, because you just don’t have what it takes, so there you go.]
You’re rotten, and well, it doesn’t matter for Mintoff to have one idiot speaking like you on his death. But see the difference: YOU will have thousands of people speaking like you on your death. Now, that is the POWER of free speech ;)
[Daphne – Mintoff’s death is being celebrated by many more people than one idiot, Fuck You. It’s just that this one idiot has a website and doesn’t give a flying f**k what people like you think. Nor am I even remotely afraid of your threats and violence. You’re all so freaking ridiculous, like the tool characters in some East End mob film.]
As a matter of fact, not all rights are absolute, idiot.
Fuck you ;)
[Daphne – You’re clear on the matter that freedom of speech ends where my right to live free of threats begins, apparently, because you make a point of being anonymous. Fuck you? I’d rather become a lesbian.]
Well, Daphne Caruana Galizia, let me give you a hint. I’m as anonymous as you are in court. And I can preserve my right to be anonymous to the same extent that I am able to link your articles to you in court. And trust me, I’m not making any efforts here.
Therefore, quite frankly, I’m not the least afraid of what ever you think you could do.
And, of course, fuck you, idiot ;)
[Daphne – I have no intention to doing anything to you. I don’t have a Labour mentality, but perhaps you’ve noticed that. I just wonder why you’re all such bloody cowards. Scared of a woman? My, my, my. Tmorru taghmlula xi haga fid-dlam? Rgiel bla bajd. Jekk ma jkollkomx xi trakk tad-Drydocks u l-prim ministru maghkom biex tmorru tfarrku kull m’hemm, jew tahgmlu tahtkom jew taghmlu minn taht.]
You are the one who provokes violence Daphne.You’re all so negative and provokes such hate between people, to yourself and your family.
@ Daphne: This is the provocative side of my comment: You now make sexist remarks. Now you assume that an anonymous commentator is male, and you go beyond, to the ridiculous point that you assume the commentator is afraid of you. To a psychologist or psychiatrist, all this reveals just too much.
As always,
Fuck you ;) Idiot.
And this is outside the scope of ‘fuck you’. A personal (and sincere) suggestion:
Change your life. Make an apology to all those you’ve hurt, and base your new life on love, not anger. And I’m sorry for using the term ‘fuck you’. Just don’t be angry towards life. If you do, it WILL hit you back, in one way or another. Quite frankly, you can pretend that you give no fuck about what everyone says about you. But, unless you’re a genius, I’m sure you do care, deep inside down. And I’m sure you’re not a genius. If you were, then you wouldn’t give a fuck about Mintoff’s death, or anything else you spend so much time writing about. I repeat: base your life on love NOT ANGER.
I’d rather become a lesbian. — Kont hsiebtek hekk fil fatt… minitex ?? … insomma ha nigi ghal li kont se nghid..

I agree with Daphne that Mintoff’s death is being celebrated by more than one person.
I yesterday posted a comment that at the exact time that Mintoff’s death was made public, there were shouts of joy in my neighbourhood, and, yes, fireworks were actually let off, too. Seriously. Just a little round of them, but certainly not a coincidence.
int vera mara bla qalb demel injoranta pastaza kumidjanta li awn f wicc id dinja hsibt li la tmut int ha jqattaw xarom in nies ma tafx li bhal ma tamel jamlulek ja mother fucker from another mother fucker with your lovely father fucker
Dear Grezz…. The fact that you have herd people celebrating Mintoff’s death shows that in fact the Nationalists might in fact be greater ‘hamalli’ than the labour as there were no celebrations nor people talking like DCG when Gwido De Marco passed away. I myself am a Nationalist and i know some of DCG’s family and i’m disapointed to read her post of celebration for the death of a person ! All in all i must add that if Mintoff and his Clikka did whatever they liked at their time, now we have the BLUE clikka doing whatever they like….. This is not something we should be talking about as this should have nothing to do with the death of a person.
Please stop calling each other rude names as it can only provoke violence.
Daphne is yet to learn that free speech is not hate speech … which may well explain why some Labourites decided to put Nationalists like her in their place? She obviously needs to visit a psychiatrist although I doubt any sane psychiatrist would invite her to sit on his or her couch! They would probably throw themselves out of a window, preferring suicide to having to put up with her antics. Fancy being a columnist for The Malta Independent.
Is life in Melbourne so boring?
‘… which may well explain why some Labourites decided to put Nationalists like her in their place’
How is it that when things come to a head, you lot always have to mention physical violence?
erm……it is not fair to use the term witch in Ms.Galizia’s case…have some respect on the good witches….and we do not deserve to rot in hell….blessings

Good Lord, that’s some excellent vocabulary you have, very articulate, I must say! Your Maltese teacher must be so proud.
The article was very provocative. It is the natural response unfortunately. Unfortunately many people react to hate with hate thus such language. Ahjar you try and control Daphne and her nasty comments to prevent such outbursts. Well she is to blame as it was a nasty article…very nasty to say the least.Unfortunately I share the same species as her like everyone else who commented…or do we?
Two wrongs never made a right, and that is definitely not a way to speak. I never said that his sympathisers shouldn’t retaliate against her article, but there’s a way and a way.

[Daphne – My God, none of you can speak or write English and you can’t even speak or write proper Maltese. How do you have conversations? That’s right, you don’t. Msieken. Your lives must be truly circumscribed and really restricted.]

You are unbelievable. How dare you! You have no soul and no heart and you are so SAD with your life. Only sad and pathetic people would say such words about someone – ANYONE who just died. SHAME ON YOU and your ignorance. You disgust me
RIP Perit Mintoff!
[Daphne – You’d be better served by learning how to spell unbelievable, AB. Love for Mintoff will get you precisely nowhere. But you should have learned that by now, even if you’re too damned thick and brainwashed to see that all you have today you have because of the Nationalist Party in government.]

BY THE WAY, muhiex is actually spelt mhuwiex and you don’t say kellu imur but kellu jmur :) careful Dahpne! ouch you really shouldn’t have said that.

[Daphne – Kemm tiflah tkun injorant. This is not about chocolate. You really, truly have absolutely no idea what hell life was under Mintoff, because it is completely outside your experience. But that is no excuse. I never lived through World War II, but I have the facts, and the ability to understand them, on what life in Malta was like in the early 1940s.]
Daphne ruhi ghalekk ghandek dak li ghandek illum hux ghax trabbejt taht Mintoff! Ahjar tighd li issa ma ghadna xejn!! Ghax dal gvern qerded kollox!!! Ma kienx kapacci izomm lil Malta fuq saqajja!!

‘Kemm tiflah tkun injorant.’: Getting pissed off now my dear Daphne? Please calm down and help yourself to the vast selection of sweets that your beloved Nationalist party is importing. Nevermind the fact that our economy is failing. Or that we rank in the top 5 obese European countries. Or that your government is privatising everything on this little island. But don’t worry lads…little Ms. Daphne prefers chocolates to a stable economy :3
[Daphne – Actually, I dislike chocolate greatly. And the economy is stable. I would know that, because I spent 16 of my formative years in a stagnating economy. It was stable, yes, in the same way that a fetid pond is stable.]
very fair reply by DCG I must say. All PL supporters complain because things are taken for granted!
Skuzani Ms Daphne, imma jekk ommok u missierek kienu jsawtuk fi zmien Mintoff ifisser li habba fih kont tghix qisek f’infern ?

Well said Daphne
Well said bejn ghajnek
Henry, it’s “bejn ghajnejk.” “Ghajnek” is just one. The two of them finish with “nejk” – if you are Labour, you should be familiar with this.
Guys, I am not a fan of Daphne’s comments, but let me point something out.
[Daphne – It is not necessary to introduce or qualify your arguments with ‘I am not a fan of Daphne’s comments’. Let them stand alone.]
This is with regards to a lot of comments I’ve read talking ill about privatization.
Privatization is a very positive thing. You might reply that prices will go higher, and to that I say you’re right. But let me keep this simple… What about being taxed less? And you only pay for stuff which you actually need?
And with regards to prices going higher due to privatization, keep in mind that privatization = competition, competition = private sector battles as to who will provide the cheapest and best services.
There are a lot of other factors behind this which prove that privatization has more ups than downs, but I am trying to keep it very generalized and explain it in such a way that it will immediately give you a perspective of what privatization is.
You are right, but since I was going to agree with you later in that comment, I wanted to make sure that I was speaking out of what I know and not as a result of an allegiance with anyone else.
And who lead the country before the Nationalist Party were in goverment?! Not that I have a particular side because I do not believe that a person should stick to one particular party. It is both parties that did well for our country. Like any other human beings they both do mistakes. All you can do is respect others opinions and don’t speak ill of the dead. Would you like someone to publish something harsh like this about you?! .. I don’t think so. Live and let live Daphne!
[Daphne – That’s why I vote Nationalist, Mr/Ms V. Because I believe in the liberal dictum of live and let live, a principle to which Labour cannot reconcile itself.]
Please correct me if I’m wrong but who introduced all the social reforms? Who was in favour of pensions? Who was in favour of a minimum salary? If you do not believe a mere 17 year old who was not fortunate enough to see his miracles take place, see what the BBC has to say about him: ‘His government introduced a wide range of social benefits and raised living standards.’ What exactly did the Nationalist Party in government do?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-19327913
[Daphne – That’s a BBC obit, honey. You should see what the British media had to say about him when he was prime minister. You wouldn’t have been proud, I can tell you. No, he did not introduce social reforms. He broke the country’s back and made it such a terrible place to live that those who could get out tried any means to do so. WHAT EXACTLY DID THE NATIONALIST PARTY DO? Unbelievable. You’re 17. Do you honestly believe that Malta was always like this? All this, now, the Nationalist Party in government did. Until 1987, we lived in Albania.]
Jahasra Daphne nithassrek. Biex taghraf li kliemek huwa dagha fahxi u dizrispett assolut m’ghandekx ghalfejn tkun ghext taht zewg gvernijiet. Li kieku jien int indahhal rasi go loki u nifflushja forsi jitnaddaf naqa l-hmieg u s-sadid ta’ mohhok, qalbi.
‘You should see what the British media had to say about him when he was prime minister.’: hahaa of course they may have said bad things about him…he was the biggest threat to them. He managed to convince them to pay for staying in their own colony.
[Daphne – X’injoranza bazwija, jahasra. Malta ceased to be a colony with independence on 21 September 1964. When Mintoff became prime minister in 1971, Malta was not a British colony. That’s what INDEPENDENCE means. Terms and conditions for the British to stay on in Malta as a military base were negotiated – OBVIOUSLY – with independence. They were then renegotiated when Malta became a republic in 1974. Mintoff tried to renegotiate them again in 1979, but failed miserably and spectacularly. He had no plan B for income, and turned to Gaddafi. Freedom Day actually marks Mintoff’s failure to succeed in negotiations with the British, and Malta’s fate placed in Gaddafi’s hands because of that. Did your parents tell you this? Obviously not. But then, they probably don’t even know it themselves.]
What a great mind you must have to be able to do that. The people weren’t getting out of Malta because of Mintoff…they were getting out because of post-war troubles…which would be present in any country under any government. But what do you know…you’re just a sad Nationalist who doesn’t have someone of such greatness to look up to. :)
…continued…
All I know is that the Nationalist party is privatising everything from the dockyard to the public transport and nearly even Air Malta while Mintoff was bringing work back in Malta after dismissing the English
[Daphne – “Dismissing the English”. Bambin aghtini pacenzja. 1. It’s the British, not the English. Many of them were Scottish, Welsh and Irish. 2. Privatisation is the way to go. It is not the business of the state to run businesses. 3. The dockyard was the Royal Navy dockyard not the state dockyard and it became an immediate and terrible liability once the British Navy left. Mintoff had no money to keep it going, it could never be a viable concern, and it cost the Maltese taxpayer hundreds of millions of liri which could have gone into schools and hospitals. 4. Mintoff did not ‘dismiss the English’. They dismissed him. Their contract was up on 31 March 1979 (that’s when the British financial year ends) and they had no intention of renewing after he put up the price. He was too embarrassed to back down again on the price and they told him politely to go and stuff himself, leaving him high and dry without a source of income, and then sailed out. He then turned to Gaddafi with his begging-bowl and Gaddafi said, yes, I’ll give you a few million dollars but in return, when I say ‘jump’ you have to say ‘how high’. And that’s about it, really.]
What an interesting lecture Miss Daphne. I apologise for the honest ‘English’ mistake but I didn’t know that I was retaking my A-level History exam ;) Ahh this brings me to another thing…no my parents didn’t have to tell me anything about politics, they didn’t have to since I got my A-level and did everything in detail, but please keep them out from this. I didn’t mention your parents, despite the urge to mention them in some obscene language :) During my history course I realised how Mintoff risked his political career to see Malta in the best position possible. He went from Integration (which was attacked by the Catholic Church [which I am sure that you are very fond of] in fear that it will lose its power) to absolute Independence. This differed from the Independence proposed by Olivier (which stated that the BRITISH were to keep control of our foreign and military affairs). There was also Strickland’s version of Independence, “quasi-independence”, which no one really understood. Mintoff believed in the Maltese…he believed that they were able to fend on there own. Like it or not, he was right
Kurt Micallef must be the prototype the PN should be working at, an imperative to clear the air of this incredible state of affairs.
Honestly, when I see how they don’t have a clue, where everything, facts, history and basic economics are twisted under superlatives to shut anyone else up, I just wonder how sustainable all this can be.
At least he tries to argue along the information he’s been fed, hopefully young enough to revise his mindset. He underlines, unwittingly, how Maltese history starts with Dom Mintoff.
and what exactly did they do?….. till now all the nationalist ever did was make us a living hell… for instance changing the buses to arriva… that was the worst idea ever but you wouldn’t know because you only care for yourselves and to receive money.. you are nothing but liars and heartless beings.. you should be ashamed
[Daphne – You are beyond redemption. The tragedy is that people like you have a vote, and if there are more of you than there are of anyone else, you get to decide who runs the country. If anyone doubted that formal education can only do so much with poor genetic material and to mitigate the influence of the home, all they have to do is read through the trash on this comments-board.]
Absolutely hilarious,
‘….for instance changing the buses to Arriva’
If it’s the average Labour voter we’re talking about here, no wonder Joseph can fib his way to power.
xi dwejjaq ghandek daphne!
make a living hell are serious … guess your mum really dropped you on your head a few times … look at it this way … if it wasnt for the Nationalsits we wouldnt be where we are today …
Perit Mintoff did many things for this country, and the Nationalist Party just continued on what he was building! So please Ms. Galizia, show some respect! You’re just making a huge show! All this, for a bit of attention from the media?
[Daphne – ‘All this for a bit of attention from the media’. Hardly. After all, you only have to scroll through these comments to see that even people who can’t read or write, and who have certainly never read anything I’ve written, know about me. How did that happen, do you think? Yes, I love having to deal with dyslexic savages. It’s my all-time favourite thing.]
how dare you call people with a disability savages? are you and your. family so perfect that you see others as something less? just remember that if your children are so perfect your grandchildren may not be so fortunate.. i bety your children are so proud of you. i. would be so ashamed if you were my mother and then again you don’t deserve to be a mother you certainly have no compastion in your heart to be called mother. i feel so sad for you
[Daphne – What disability? Dyslexia? I see that you can’t do basic comprehension. I wrote ‘dyslexic savages’ and not ‘savage dyslexics.’]
I comprende very well Ms. Galizia So much so I find your basic comrehension appalling . Get off what ever your so high on and show some respect to all Maltese citizens. You should be ashamed to call youself Maltese. I loath that we breath the same air.
OH dear Daphne! Don’t you have nothing better to say?? Talking shit cause someone made a Typo?? U dont have to be thick or brainwashed to know that you do not disrespect the dead this way! Im sure you would kick a huge hissy fit and sue anyone who attacks your family or loved ones in such a way ( and that is if you have any loved ones cause im not sure that there are any ppl stupid, damned thick and brainwashed enough to love someone as heartless like you)
Daphne you’re a shame to the Nationalist party,a big shame.
The sheer idiocy of calling someone thick and brainwashed and then, in the same sentence, claiming the PN did nothing but good in the myriad years they’ve been in power is world-shattering. It’s as if you truly believe there’s no grey areas in life and people. I seriously hope you don’t do this.
[Daphne – I didn’t say the Nationalist Party did nothing but good. I said that all the good we have now is because of Nationalist policies.]
I claim no love for either party but reading your blog and comment replies, it’s quite clear you’re just as thick and brainwashed as every other stereotypical Malteaser. You yell about how one party are infallible gods amongst men and the other party is pure evil and reply to any dissent with “mahruq” or citing cherry-picked facts and ignoring everything else. I’m disappointed to say the least, I expected someone who claims to be well-read and with a prestigious journalism background to back it up.
[Daphne – I never claimed anything of the sort. I am not Franco Debono’s sister. That is what you think of me, not what I think of myself.]
Sensationalist journalism at best, inciting violence and hatred at worst. Commenters screaming for blood and throwing personal insults aren’t any better either.
What if said person is a student and receives a stipend? Stipends were introduced by Mintoff and we still have that policy (if perhaps amended), ergo that comment is false and we have good policies from both governments in effect afterall.
If you believe the Nationalist Party actually did do some bad, then you naturally believe the Labour Party did some good as well. Why not make an article about that to dispell the stigma? I don’t think you would because you deftly avoided my previous comment about being a simple hardcore Nationalist with a loud voice, much like all the other hardcore anythings. It’s just as bad as what you call a “Mintoffjan”, you’re just wearing a different shirt, sadly.
You don’t claim anything of the sort but you imply it so heavily, you might as well have stated it outright. You hold a prominent position as a Maltese celebrity, for better or worse, and you squander that by simply using it to make your loud voice even louder. Why not point out the good and bad in each politician and earn the respect of your contemporaries instead of furthering a personal biased agenda?
Actually I don’t love Mintoff, I have never voted for MLP in my life and probably never will. I am just not evil, I know what I dislike, what I like and I am enough of a grown woman to respect everyone’s opinion and shut the f*ck up when I have to. You on the other hand, you are an attention whore.
He may not know how to spell unbelievable but at least he writes with respect.
what is wrong with you woman? i am utterly disgusted to even be grouped with you as a female. Did someone hurt you that much that you re taking it out on other people??? who broke Mrs Galizia’s heart hmm???
I would love to crack open a bottle with a hero like that. BITCH.
And this God’s give to men just wrote: But you should have learned that by now, even if you’re too damned thick and brainwashed to see that all you have today you have because of the Nationalist Party in government.] Are you on drugs??? Either you’re so damn thick and stupid to believe all this yourself (which I believe you’re not) or you’re so damn brainwashed with hatred to anything labour that you’re actually trying to convince yourself or trying to fool people? So you want anybody to believe that all the social services that Mintoff introduced, and to which PN ALWAYS voted against, were done by PN, like for instance, to name a few, Minimun wage, 40 hour week, leave and sick leave, bonuses, women’s right to vote, women getting equal pay as men (yes, PN voted against this as well, as according to them, women, you included, were only good to stay in the kitchen and produce babies!), free hospitals, obligatory education, right to civil marriage, subsidized loans, free housing and so on, weren’t all those the legacy of the GREAT DOM MINTOFF ?
I believe I wrote unbelievable good. I am not even labour, I am not even crazy about Mintoff either. I’m just not an attention sad wh*re.

This is an INCREDIBLY classy post, I have to congratulate you for being such a prude and indecent being.
Celebrating a man’s death, have you no shame?
Actually, I’d say that Mintoff deserved far harsher words, and that our bloghost’s reaction to his final demise was pretty mild, given the fact that she spent her almost her entire childhood and youth under the tyrant’s domination.
“She spent her entire childhood under this tyrant’s domination” By the looks of it, was she locked in a cellar chained to the wall given only cocroaches and piss to eat? was her father killed and her mother raped in front of her eyes by this so called tyrant? That is what Tyrant do, don’t they? Is this what Mintoff was? I’m sure Grezz you don’t even know or remember Mintoff, you’re only expressing your sorry ignorance and stupidity in your writing.
Ara vera injoranta u pastaza isthi jekk taf …. jalla id deni li tixtiq al hadihor jigi fuqek ….
Happy birthday, dear Daphne. Have a great one.

The angels are safe. There’s no way he’s walked in there. It’s taken so long because hell wanted to prepare a special place for him (or they didn’t want him either).
This deserves at least a decent gin and tonic. No rewriting of history for me. He was all you said he was.
He ruined what should have been the best years of my life. He left a legacy of hate which is still as tangible today as it was in his heyday.
Let the hypocrisy begin!
Rot in hell you fuckin crippled….
Well done. I totally agree.
You people are just heartless. Yes for sure he ruined this country!! By making it stand on its own feet!!
Unlike this goverment where all he is doing is making it crumble everyday!! But i guess you are too blind to see it!!!
Mintoff did not make Malta stand on its own feet. He made it Gaddafi’s vassal state.
I can say the same for the one and only Fenech Adami but I still wouldn’t have the balls to talk about someone this way. Have you no shame? may you choke on that gin and tonic the neXt time you take one asshole.

This one must be from Labour’s LGBT section.
or maybe from the section where you were so mistakenly selected you twat,,, shut the fuck up already you re spoiling my fun with all these stupid comment of your,, are you from sliema hun??? expecting ppl to bow down to this bullshit you make me,,,,,,,, sick
[Daphne – X’pajjiz tal-hamalli u invidjuzi. Kemm konna ahjar meta ma kienux johorgu mir-rahal. Though in my experience, the very worst are actually the urban underclass.]
Actually, I’m from Zurrieq.
The problems started when Mintoff insisted on creating ghettoes in the form of housing estates against the vote.
In ten years time, when the children are gone and the parents packed off to one of Marlene’s planned residences, whole acres of sprawl will lie empty.
Fragmentation was the instrument to ban access amongst ourselves, distance became literally virtual.
Who wants Hal-Farrug, Laqxija, San Gwann and what have you? Mintoff’s design failed us miserably, just watch them.
So true… thank God they’ re calling themselves progressive and moderate… it shows how moderate and progressive they all are?
I say dream on Joseph, forsi vera they changed their coat of arms, flag and all, but the people are just the same. Yukk.
I am sorry but you are a rude and evil bitch. How can you be so rude and inconsiderate to this man’s family regardless of your political beliefs. I am foreign and do not care about Maltese politics or your red and blue parties. The problem let me tell you with this country is rude and arrogant people like you. May I be the first one to piss on your grave some day hope the saints don’t go marching out when you reach the pearly gates. May you rot in hell.
For a foreigner who doesn’t care about politics, you care a hell of a lot about Mintoff.
I don’t care about Mintoff at all. However a decent person has respect for the family members who are mourning. To them he was not the ex-prime minister but a member of the family that they just lost. It is completely shows lack of class to disrespect that. I can’t even vote, it makes no difference to me who is in government. I think this women lacks class and respect and this was my point.
[Daphne – ‘This woman lacks class’. Ghax dawk li jivvutaw ghal Mintoff klessy hafna, Alla jbierek. Christine, those who weren’t raised in the gutter don’t go about worrying that people might think they were, and tailoring their behaviour accordingly. One of the spectacular benefits of having no concerns about your origins is not giving a rat’s ass what other people think – especially people like you.]
Let me get this straight: you are criticising Daphne for her comments as a general problem of this country, then as a foreigner you threaten to behave exactly the same way when she dies?
Clever. Anyway, Mintoff was not the messiah; he was a very naughty boy. For every person here who ‘”loved” him, there is one who hated him.
More or less – let’s say 51% hated him. That’s just in the Maltese islands.
Incidentally, he is the father of the red and blue divisions in this country, and his legacy lives on, though not in the history books written by the Labour Party, mind.
P.S. I bet people danced about when Hitler killed himself and I bet some people thought that was rude.
well said Mr/Mrs/Miss Zammit, at last somebody is talking sense !!
I don’t care who loved or hated him or what he did in the past to be honest. I absolutely does not concern me now and never will. However love or hate the guy he has a family and to them he is a father, cousin, brother uncle be it what may. So seeing someone disrespect a family in mouning made me angry.
And yes I am sure they danced about when Hitler died however no one was rude enough to right about it on the night of his death.
As I said I could careless about Mintoff it is what Daphne represents that bothers me and that is ignorance.
[Daphne – They didn’t have the internet or the free press in Germany when Hitler killed himself, Christine. Get a grip. But a hell of a lot was said in the free press elsewhere. There were also several famous ditties, including ‘Hitler only has one ball’ and more in a similar vein.
You fail to distinguish between public figures and private. Mintoff was a prime minister, the worst but one that Malta ever had (the worst was his successor KMB). If he were anyone else, nobody would give a damn. But the criticism comes with the praise. Learn to live with it and grow up into the democratic world.
I do not represent ignorance, Christine. Mintoff represented ignorance. He was the representative of ignorance in parliament. Ignorant people put him there and he represented them.
I am not, never were and never will be in parliament, and so I cannot represent ignorance. Also, ignorant people, as we have seen amply demonstrated on this comments-board, tend to hate me with a passion. I represent everything they fear, mistrust and despise, and it certainly is not ignorance we’re talking about.]
Issa vera waqt fil baxx ta…… Messek tisthi!!!!
I think that it would be very fitting for Mintoff to be buried at sea; maybe somewhere near Dellimara where he so loved to swim.
That way we can urinate on his grave without having to commit an offence.
Issa uri wiccek bormla inti ta purcinell…hekk jew b hekk naf min int
That would be polluting our seas. No thank you.
Dont you know your history mate? If Mintoff deserves to be pissed on his grave, then I cant imagine what Isqof Gonzi deserves? Yes this man did wrong but also did right so dont be dumb asses please and grow the fuck up.
Injorant. Tghallem l-istorja mhux dik li bellaghulek. L-Iisqof Gonzi Laburist iehor. Taf li qabel ma’ kien
Injorant. Tghallem l-istorja mhux dik li bellaghulek. L-Isqof Gonzi Laburist iehor. Taf li qabel ma’ kien isqof kien membru elett f’isem il-Partit Laburista?
Qisu l-kwalifika principali biex tkun laburist, li tkun injorant. Mela sewwa tghid Daphne.
Taf li l-isqof Gonzi kien supporter ta’Boffa? Le hux, injorant.
Tak min kien Boffa? Dak li Mintoff hadlu postu. Billi akkuzah li kien qed jinhexa ma’bintu stess. Tafha din injorant? Imma imbghad qallu sorry ta….
(Min kien jobsor li imbghad kien ikun Mintoff innifsu li jaqa daqshekk fil-baxx li jkorni il-povra mara mal-mara ta’ huh innifsu!
Mela l-Isqof Gonzi ghamel lil-Mintoff dak li Mintoff imbghad ghamel lil-Sant. Il-laburisti jiggieldu bejniethom u l-Maltin jerdghawh. Dak partit eh. Ja injorant.
Imsomma, jien ghal-ewwel kont ser naghmel bhal Daphne u niftah ix-xampanja, imma imbghad irragunajt li nehles minn harja kuljum u ma niftah ebda xampanja.
Nahseb li wasal iz-zmien li nimshu sormna u nimxu l-quddiem…. wara li nisimghu dedika specjali…

Ah, yes. Mintoff was right in doing wrong. And you wonder why anyone sane thinks so poorly of your lot.
Kinks,
xi haga hekk ma’ jirrisponduhiex. Jekk il-bniedem kien tal-misthija, u l-partit jghidilhom kif jahsbuha, kif tridhom jaslu?
Sieheb tal-EU, mhux huma rebhu? Msieken huma, ghax ghadhom ibatuh sal-llum.
Inti xi buffu iehor li trid iddahhak pajjiz bik qisek hux?
Hate is all you know … like the rest of your snob and ignorant klikka. That group of wannabes who pretend to have class clinging to as vacant an ideology as the Fascists that ruled Italy.
Ma tisthix tkun daqshekk bhima?
Hi Daphne – Prosit, we have read your comment and we agree with you 100%, and we love your ‘gatz’ so keep it up.
Guts writing such trash about someone who obviously can’t reply? That’s cowardice not bold.
are you fucken serious are you sick people what!
Really???? Fuck you
I Agree with you …. A woman I really admire , wish I had the same guts
gut or stupidity?? hmmm
Rhona, now calm down, dear. You sound hysterical.
Daphne has every right to say what she wants here, because
1. It is HER blog, not YOURS.
2. We live in a democratic country, an island called MALTA, not NORTH KOREA.
3. Daphne is one hundred percent right about Mintoff. I know – I may have suffered a bit less but I lived it too. I was also born in the sixties and was one of the many unlucky ones who lost many opportunities and had our freedom taken away from us. It was not about MARS bars and PEPSODENT, Rhona, it was about OUR FREEDOM, not to mention the violence some of us either experienced personally or saw happenning with our very own eyes – of course, I do not expect you to understand – I suspect you were not even born then.
4. No one is forcing you to read what you do not like to read, and vice versa – we are living in 2012 not 1981.
5. I hope that you realise that Daphne is even uploading your comments, calling her stupid and every name under the sun – again, we are not living in 1981.
So before getting all offended and continue to post idiotic comments, both here and elsewhere, I suggest you should ignore any drivel you may have been fed, perhaps from the very day you were born, and do some decent research, look for information one can actually rely on. Inform yourself better and try to put yourself in the shoes of those of us who lived those horrible events.Then, and only then, you will perhaps be able to conclude with an open mind who and what is right and what’s not.
Don`t worry Daphne when you go to hell all Devils will go out of Hell to bow before you,sing ‘Glory Glory Alleuljah’ to give you a very warm welcome,and even Lucifer himself will bow before you and concede his crown to you.This is what I sincerely will wish to you with all my heart.
Hell does not exist, but as a Nationalist it was hell living under this tyrant I can tell you.
Hell does not exist ? Well,surely there will be one for you and for this lady.Tyrant !! The Man who just wanted Malta to be a better place who in fact managed!!
You’re crazy. Psychopath.
That’s it! psychopath!
you must be a crazy woman he done good things and even not so good things but you must be stupid to write those things a haga kerha.
YOU ARE DISGUSTING AND MAY YOU DIE ON THE SPOT
I admire you immensely, Daphne, for your courage. I understand your feelings toward this evil control freak.
Habib naccertak li meta tmutu inti u dil-q*hba li kitbet dan iz-zibel fuq Mintoff, ghax disgustagni ha jifrakrukom, xejn aktar. Kulhadd jghidilkom x’haqqkom, imma hawn min hu bniedem bizzejjed biex ma jaqax ghall-livell zibel daqskom.
freak missierek ja ragel ikrah
How hateful… yukk
I can only say one thing, when you write the hurtful rubbish that you do its because you are that from inside……..only those that know how to say or write it because that’s all they see from within…..you can only write what you see…..I feel sorry for you, may god bless your sorry soul.
She has to have sould before can bless it!!
She has to gave a soul before God can bless it!
Każ mentali għandek ta ma ddumx ma jiġbruk inti. Inti l-iktar kreatura moqżieża li qatt ra dan il-pajjiż.

Intik parir tara tabib malajr kemm jista jkun, il-moħħ mhux qed jaħdimlek tajjeb avolja m’intix tinduna mma għandek problemi serji mentali. GET WELL SOON
no die bitch
Dear Daphne
If you keep a lower key on name calling it would be so much better. How dare you speak in that manner especially about a recently deceased person…feelings for family if you have any? MLP supporters read your article, since they associate you with PN (unfortunately for us that is) they will run a mile from PN and spread hate towards PN as if there isnt enough..
A hateful and arrogant article which shouldnt have been published at all if you have a bit of conscience that is.
Yes Dom Mintoff did both…he did alot of good and not so good as well. Now let him rest in peace.
well said
Thank you for telling us it’s your birthday.
I hope you don’t mind but I will be celebrating your birthday too.
Happy birthday and have fun, it’s a CELEBRATION!
Make a favour to all of us… And Shut the fuck up you stupid ignorant bitch. May you &your ……. Rip .
The beauty in all this is that when Mintoff was in power you HAD to “shut the fuck up” or you’d get beaten by his thugs or worse. Now we can all swear and hate freely…
How can you be so vile? You should be utterly ashamed – call yourself a human being? If only you had half as much goodness in all your body as he had in just one hair. He will be remembered for all the good he did and yes probably also for the mistakes he made in this life…but he was human. You on the other hand are not worth remembering. The King is dead but his legacy will live on.
Mary, his legacy is that half of us hate the other half. It actually wasn’t this way before ‘the King’ usurped the crown…
CZ, you really know your history…not. Go back to the library!
Int bis-serjeta??????Aqra l-istorja ha tara kienx haw mibgheda politika qabel Mintoff…..fittex u ara x’kienu jaghmlu,jinqdew bil-knisja u l-injoranza biex ibghedu n-nies mil-PL.Kull fejn kien hemm bniedem li pprova jaqbez ghall-batut u ghad-drittijiet tal-haddiema qala kemm felah fuq rasu,bhal Manuel Dimech…..prova jeduka l-poplu izda spicca hazin.
Mintoff kellu l-hazin ukoll,pero l-gid li ghamel ma tistax tinsih.Gid li qeghdin ingawdu llum,jekk ihalluna!!Dak li kitbet DCG ma tantx tajt kazu,l-aktar ghax dak huwa l-oghola livell safejn tista tasal….tizra l-mibgheda.
I should have clarified. Mintoff’s legacy to my generation… In 1981 when the Labour Party lost an election and Mintoff remained in power, I was just old enough to learn to start hating the other side. Why, were you hating before then?
Albert,
Manuel Dimech haseb, li jekk jisraq bicca tal-gwerra u jhedded li jgharraqha, il-kuruna (li dak is-zmien kellha aktar minn hamest elef vapur) kienet se ccedilu.
Apparti li, ta’ sbatax, gie mixli u nstab hati li qatel wiehed biex seraqlu flusu. Siehbu ta’ tmintax ha l-forka u hu helisha ghax tifel.
Tghallem jaqra ta’ hamsa u ghoxrin, l-ewwel ktieb li mess telghalu ghal-rasu.
Kapolavur iehor.
Amen to that.
He screwed up so many lives, harmed so many people and ruined the country, which is yet to fully recover after 30 years.
It takes so little to break a nation but so much to rebuild one.
I can’t understand you idiots when you say ‘ruined the country’! Runined it how ? By giving everyone free education, by giving free medical services, by giving pensions ( which by the way this govement wants to take away), by giving jobs to people, by opening the air malta which thanks to this goverment they drove it to the ground! The list goes on, I advice you to go and read the Maltese history.
I don’t know how these things can ruin a country but if u choose to believe that continue being ignorant!!
FUCK YOU
Why don’t you fuck yourself you are so ignorant
Taks Fors, you must me Malta’s No.1 Economist.
Hope your social skills come handy here, if you have any.
As a continuation to my previous comment…..It is not a way to talk about a recently deceased person Daphne. Feelings for the family if you have any???? They are humans and have feelings like you?
I noticed the photo and the comment…did you have to add that comment???? Such a hateful comment. And the title….
What you sow you reap….sow hatred and guess what you reap…
Precisely Theresa that is what Mintoff sowed – hatred. He thrived on it and nurtured it, dividing a nation so he could control it. Hatred This is his legacy and everything here is evidence to that.
Now Daphne keep to your words after he is buried go and spit on his grave. If you are a woman do it. You are a truly disgrace for the maltese country :)
she’s a chicken she won’t do it!!
iktar kemm tghajjura iktar ghar, halluha ha tifga f’demma. Il Pajjiz ha jaghti tislima li tixraq lil Eks Prim Ministru u lil Eks Kap tal Partit Laburista.
Nsejt Eks Traditur
missek tisthi, kemm inti mara bla rispett biex tikteb affarijiet hekk
Good riddance to bad rubbish. Amen.
And a Happy Birthday!

May the miserable bastard suffer in hell for all the suffering he caused on earth.
L-Air Malta
Fil-21 ta’ Marzu, 1973 il-parlament Malti approva mozzjoni tal-Prim Ministru Laburista,
Dom Mintoff, biex titwaqqaf kumpanija nazzjonali tal-ajru – l-Air Malta. L-Air Malta
ġiet imwaqqfa bl-assistenza tal-Gvern tal-Pakistan. Il-kumpanija nazzjonali irċiviet ħafna
kritika mill-oppożizzjoni Nazzjonalista, li ppreferew jagħmlu użu minn kumpaniji tal-ajru
barranin milli dik lokali.
Bank of Valletta
Fit-23 ta’ Marzu, 1974 gie mhabbar il-ftuh tal-Bank of Valletta, l-ewwel bank kollu
kemm hu Malti. 60% ftal-ishma fil-bank kienu ser ikunu f’isem il-Gvern Malti filwaqt li
l-40% l-ohra kienu ser jinbiegħu lil pubbliku Malti.
Miżuri oħra tal-Gvern Laburista (1971-1976)
Il-Gvern ta’ Mintoff waqqaf bosta miżuri fosthom:
• In-nazzjonalizzazzjoni kif ukoll il-bidu ta’ bosta kumpaniji propjetà tal-istat,
fosthom l-Air Malta, is-Sea Malta, il-Bank of Valletta, il-Mid-Med Bank, itTelemalta u x-Xandir Malta;
• Tnaqqis fid-differenza fis-salarji bejn l-ogħla u l-iktar grad baxx fis-servizzi ċivili;
• L-għoti ta’ żieda għall-għoli tal-ħajja u bonuses bi flat rate minflok b’perċentwali;
• L-introduzzjoni tas-sistema PAYE (Pay-As-You-Earn) u higher ceiling fejn tidħol
it-taxxa tad-Dħul;
• Il-bidu ta’ skema nazzjonali tas-saħħa;• Id-demolizzjoni ta’ slums u l-bini ta’ bosta units residenzjali għall-ħaddiema u lfamilji tagħhom;
• Xiri bulk-buying ta’ prodotti mportati bħall-ħalib, zokkor u butir bi prezzijiet
orħos;
• Bosta riformi fil-leġiżlatura industrijali bħal per eżempju, it-tnaqqis tal-working
week għal 40 siegħa u liġi favur paga ndaqs għal ħaddiema nisa;
• Iż-żieda fin-nefqa għas-servizzi soċjali kif ukoll l-introduzzjoni ta’ servizzi bħaċ-
Children’s Allowance;
• It-tneħħija ta’ streaming u eżamijiet fi skejjel statali;
• Bosta proġetti turistiċi;
• Inbnew oqsma industrijali ġodda u dawk eżistenti ġew imkabbra;
• Ġiet mibnija pista tal-ajru ġdida li kienet takkomoda vetturi tal-arju kbar;
• L-introduzzjoni ta’ korpi tax-xogħol bħall-Korpi tal-Pijunieri, li kienu jagħmlu
bosta xogħol ta’ kostruzzjoni. Membri ta’ dawn il-korpi kienu miċħuda mid-dritt li
jissieħbu trade unions.
[Daphne – Jahasra, kemm int injorant. Il-vera ma taf xejn hlief il-propaganda li deffsu f’mohhok ohrajn u qatt ma kellek mohh tiskropi l-fatti kif inhuma.]
Inti ghalik kulhadd injorant uxx minbarra inti foxx ic celloli l hziena u morda li ghandek fmohhok
i smell ignorance and jealousy
Tnaqqis fid-differenza fis-salarji bejn l-ogħla u l-iktar grad baxx fis-servizzi ċivili;
Fil-prattika din kienet tfisser li missieri, li kien kap ta’ skola, kien jiehu ghaxar liri fix-xahar aktar mil-caretaker. Tahseb int li r-responsabbiltajiet taghhom kienu l-istess?
Ghax ma tikkuntemplax il-fatt li daqs kemm tejjeb il-qaghda ta’ certi familji, daqshekk iehor Mintoff halla hsara kbira u gab faqar lil ohrajn minhabba il-mibgheda kbira li kellu ghan-nies edukati.
Biss biss, ara kif dawwar in-nies kontra l-ghalliema, li kienu l-unici nies li setghu verament jedukawlhom lit-tfal taghhom.
L-uniku wirt li hadna minghand Mintoff kienet mibgheda harxa bejn il-Laburisti u n-Nazzjonalisti ghax hlief isahhanhom kontra xulxin ma kienx jaghmel.
Mintoff fired poplu.
Daphne dear I guess you need to go back and brush up ur history! Because as far as I know all it’s written above is the turth!! It feels like you are the one that never want to learn the truth but believe all the rubbish that is fed to you.
And if you you’re gonna come with the excuse that you lived you those times keep it to your slef because it seems that you were living in a totally different country.
tista tghidilna il-fatti mela kif inhuma forsi nifmu il-punt tieghek?
Jigifieri dik il-lista li kitbet Natanael Aquilina ha tmeriha wkoll? Lanqas int vili!! Ara tghidx li ghamluhom in-Nazzjonalisti wkoll!! Int vera mara marida u miskina ha nghidlek! L-uniku haga li ghandek akbar minn imniehrek hija l-hdura li ghandek ghall- Mintoff u l-Laburisti, jekk il- qaddisin ser jimmarcjaw il- barra mill- genna kif jishol Mintoff, ninsab cert li Alla ser jirremetti kif jara lilek, ghax lanqas ix-xitan ma jridek mieghu gahx twaqqghu second division int!
Agata Barbara, ministru tal-edukazzjoni, (ghax minn daqshekk kien isibhom) kienet xebghet tghajjar lil ghalliema buda waqt il-meetings.
wafqet hemm
Natanael, you should follow this blog more often. The true political and social history of Malta since the “Golden Years” has been covered more than once in various blog posts here.
Where did you get that one about Bank of Valletta – 40% being sold to the public?

You are not serious?
hope you suffer more

Muscat just said that all Maltese people have been orphaned by the death of Mintoff.
Mintoff was never my father and I never wished that he was. Good riddance.
Well excuse me neither is Eddie but for some reason you keep saying that he’s our father!!! Maybe for you idiots but definetly not to me!!!!
off coarse that ass whole is not my father.
he never was and never will be.
ppl dont forget nazzjonalist ass whole father is still alive and one day he will die too like his wifieeeeeeeee.
Eddie x’missierer hu li kisser il-malta ghax dahalna f’unjoni ewropean bil-gideb li beda jghid u purcinelli bhalkom emmnuh
You just gave your behaviour a definition “totally cress” and seems like you are so proud of it. Please, stop embarrassing us and make yourself a favour – leave the country immediately.
Go to countries where this behaviour is not tollerable, will be a good challenge for you. There you can prove yourself how good you are. Malta is easy for you as justice is weak.
It is clear that your self belief is on a very low standard as you always feed the negative side of you and you are not capable to deal with it yourself so you share it publicly. Massive ego that is killing you from your inside. Seek help, you truly need it.
[Daphne – Tolerance and tolerable have only one L. I can’t understand why it takes Laburisti so long to understand this.]
Daphne kemm hi easy biex tiggranfa ma cucati bhal dawn biex timla il-vojt. Dahhaqtni tnejn, l-ispelling huwa daqshekk importanti hdejn ir-rabja li qed tiggenera go pajjizek stess? Ahdem naqa fuqek innifsek u tibqax tuza il-pubbliku biex jimlilek dak l-ego sfrenat. Daqshekk kapaci, s’hemm twassal?
Please note, jien ma jinteressni assolutament xejn politikament, kollha nuqqas ta valuri fis-socjeta li jien trabbejt fiha.
Ipprova inghalaq go kamra wahdek minghajr input tal-pubbliku ha tara fej twassal u mela gejja bl-ispelling. Jien ma nafx min int ghax jien qas malta ma nghix imma mara bhalek nistenna li tkun role model u mhux tkompli timla bin-negattiv. Jiddispjecini ghal familjari li jkollhom ikomplu jitwekkew b’dan l-ghagir. Mohh mghaluq.
Good luck ghax vera ghandek bzonn.
U jekk behsiebek terga tirrispondi u tkun patetika, nitolbok ma tirrispondi xejn u tkomplix tahli hinek.
[Daphne – You don’t know who I am and yet you rush in here to join in the fight. Impressive.]
Yes we know who you are, you are a freak of nature and you think you can take it against everyone but remember that at the end it will come on you for sure. If you had a personal grudge for Mintoff you should have kept it for yourself and not hurt other people’s feelings. You are a shame on your family and instead of protecting them you are putting them in danger. I ‘m sorry for you but I think you should seek a doctor and also work on your manners as you should learn not to hurt others and not to be selfish. A bitch is not the rigfht word for you as a bitch gives and takes, but you hurt people who did not do anything to you. You are a disgrace to this country and even you Nationalist party shoud get rid of you, shame on you jaqqqqqq
Uzgur meta nara li in-nuqqas ta pajjiz daqshekk potenzjali gej min generazzjoni ta nies maghluqin bhalek, yes I do express my emotions as a malteser. Indeed Daphne your state of mind is impressive! Ara x’tasal tghamel ta meta wiehed jiffoka fuq haga wahda biss. Kemm int mghaluqa u mieghek qed iggorr generazzjoni ohra ghax mintix kapaci wahdek. Trid il-feedback hin kollu. Hallihom il-maltin hallihom, jekk mix trieqtek fittex band’ohra bhal m’ghamilt jien u mijiet ta nies ohra. Imma id-deni tieghi ma nghatih lil hadd, niddilja mieghu jien. Issa int ghandek naqa vantagg ghax persuna pubblika u qed tuzah ghan negattiv, tghazel l-easy biex kulhadd itik l-attenzjoni. Nieqsa hafna minnha, passat tqil kellek, you are actually crying for help (and you know it but your ego is massive and you’d rather feed it than fight what’s difficult)
Again, you just identified yourself well done, “fight” is what it is for you. Tiggieled biex tinstema. Isma minni u inghalaq go kamra wahdek u oqghod isma llek innifsek. Hemm tinduna fejn int qieghda u kemm vera thobb lilek innifsek… ahseb u ara lil ta madwarek. Illistra xi triq twila ghad fadallek.
This must be the highlight of your career now. You must be very proud to have accomplished such mysery to your self at least that’s how you’re coming across. Issa wasallek iz-zmien fej tghalaq halqek ghax ghidt bizzejjed u tisma biss.
[Daphne – Ma xi dwejjaq ta’ nies. Il-vera boring, jahasra. The trouble is that people who live in your social hole have no experience of anyone outside it, and so you think that your normality is standard.]
Boring “and yet you rush in here to” reply. U inti min imisslek il-laham il-haj mhux boring trid tghidlu. Tiehu pjecir thalli lilek innifsek imdejqa go pajjiz li tishtu ahseb u ara kemm se ggib rispett il-dawk li jghixu fih ma saqajk kuljum hehehehehe you are so funny.
“The trouble is that people who live in your social hole have no experience of anyone outside it, and so you think that your normality is standard” – this is exactly the interpretation of your life. What you perceive is what you’re in and yet you choose to contiue mortifying yourself. Well done, keep it up! But do it alone, a little advise if you want to listen.
Mintoff mid-dehera kien l-idolu tieghak u qas taf. Ara kemm gbart nies il-bierah u illum bis-sahha tieghu. Brava dik! hehehehehehe your state of mind is really entertaining. I’m actually allowing myself to read all this and realise fej tasal mara maltija (bla offiza personali lil hadd, nispera!)
Hear, hear.
such a stupid person u are ppffff
HAMALLU:*You are such a stupid person is the correct synatx.
Foxx dik il-qahba ommok, ma jaqsmekx trakk ja liba!!
tija ma tixraqx ja bastid li
Charming, eh? Such is Mintoff’s legacy, of which you and your ilk – quite ignorantly – are so very proud.
You know that this is all hate promotive do you?
Just look at this comment on timesofmalta.com:

Hawn Dumink. Forsi ma kontx perfett (imma qalbek, u l-konvinzjonijiet tiegħek dejjem f’lokhom kienu. Dak li għallimtna Missier).
Taf li għadhom jiftakru li, minħabba fik, ma setgħux igawdu ċikkulata ta’ barra. Naħfrulhom il-banalita’ hux perit?!
U tiftakar snin ilu, kont għadni tifel, kont Delimara nilgħab ħobża w sardina u meta rajtek, ġejt niġri ħdejk u int poġġejt idek fuq spallti. U ma niftakarx x’għidtli bl-eċċitament li qabadni.

Kemm jeccita ruhhu bix-xejn da s-Sur Xuereb!
Dan ghax joqghod Londra?
Well as u said it’s not acceptable to speak ill of the dead but believe me I can’t wait for the day when it’s finally your turn so I can’t go an celebrate the death of a person that makes me ashamed to say that I’m Maltese. BITCH!!,
WHY IS IT NOT ACCEPTABLE TO SPEAK ILL OF THE DEAD? People world wide still speak ill of RASPUTIN , HITLER, NERO, MUSSOLINI, GHEDDHAFI, SADDAM, KIM IL SUNG, STALIN ,HENRY VIII , CALIGULA AND THE 9/11 BOMBERS. sO WHY NOT OF LORRY SANT AND DOM MINTOFF.
i CANNOT IMAGINE ALFRED sANT WASTING TEARS ON DOM, THE MAN WHY BETRAYED HIM AND THE MALTA LABOUR PARTY
Oh my God are you stupid or what?? As if you can compare Dom Mintoff to such people. All the people you mentioned were killers!! Excuse me Who did Som Mintoff kill… NO ONE!!!!!
What he did was… give a roof over people’s head, gave people jobs, Education was free to everyone and not just the rich, free medical services, and the list goes on and on.
I don’t think that the comparisons that you did are fair to a man of such a great stature.!!!!
Bravu Konti
Stature my ASS. Mary did you go to school and if their’s any chance you say yes did you continue to university i think not because at the time even the smartest of people could barly get in under Mindoff.

That is so ridiculous. Why don’t you head off to a ‘gazin’ and have a couple of beers u igbed tnejn bil-Madonna ha thossok .. what’s the word your futile peers use now? Oh yes, I’ve got it: king, pronounced kinK.
ilaqula naqa ohra

mela tatulek shun ?
i appologize for using such language but you had not right to even comment in such a way beacause its only showing me that you only judge a book by its cover and its funny how you only commented on that and not about mintoff’s death but anyways ek trida tal kinK u thossa affarik tiprova tidira li int xi helu .. once again i apologzie for this comment but i am still shocked how you wrote this in such a way that it shows your unprofessioanlity and what person that doesnt care about anythings besides around themselves
[Daphne – Oh for God’s sake don’t waste your time here and go and get some spelling lessons instead. And stop telling people what they have a right to write and what they don’t have a right to write. We’re not living under Mintoff anymore and you really need to get ‘freedom of speech’ defined for you. The only thing you’re not allowed to do is lie about others or invade the privacy of non-public figures.]
You are hilarious. I don’t have the right? Who are you to tell me that I don’t have the right?
I can write anything I want, mostly because I live in a free country (not Malta) and your stupid Maltese libel laws do not apply to my jurisdiction.
For the most part I disagree with Daphne and obviously I do not heart what she wrote up here, but it shocks me to see so many of you trying to silence people and imposing your beliefs on others.
If you are mourning Mintoff, by all means do so, but appreciate that not everyone is going to harbour your exact same sentiments and that everyone has an opinion and a right to FREELY write and describe what he/she really feels without any restrictions.
Nathaniel nahsen li int l ikbar injorant f wicc id dinja daf li tista tispicca il qorti minhabba dak il kumment. U le Daphne ovolja dak li qalet ma ghogbokx ghanda kull dritt titkellem. Mentri int qed teddida mhux targumenta bhan nies

Maybe his daughter will (again) flee the country, once and if she gets her share of assets.
By the way, recently you wrote that your hosting service was upgraded to cater for a spike in page requests. It’s either that you’ve got this wrong or this evening the run on site was far greater than those which took place towards the end of last year when you had last gone viral on Facebook.
You truly are a sick and loathsome woman, Daphne. I never voted for Labour, experienced the worst of the eighties and guess what, consider you a vile, despicable woman for posting such hate (not just Mintoff, but his daughter too???) nonetheless. Did you ever even visit Gaddafi’s Libya, do you even know what went on there, while equating Malta under Mintoff with that?? But enough of that, that is not the point. The point is your unalloyed hate, the utter lack of even an ounce of empathy or sympathy with the hundreds of thousands, let alone one grieving daughter, who today mourn the passing away of a man. The Nationalist Party should disassociate itself from you and your blog in the clearest possible manner, once and for all. Even if there is, theoretically, no logical need to do so, the merest hint of association with you and your name is poison, not just to a political party but to any respectable person. Do not kid yourself about the tens of thousands who visit your site….most of them may concur with what you say some of the time, but even Gadaffi, seeing that you mentioned him, did a good thing or two, and his name and incoherent ramblings generated a lot of traffic on the web…….
There are two daughters. Perhaps though your comment is right and only one of them is grieving.
The man was 96 and they kept away from him for most of his life. Only when it looked like the end was nigh did they come to his side. God only knows what treasures he has hidden.
What went on in Libya did not go on in Malta not because of Mintoff but because we had Eddie Fenech Adami and the Nationalist Party to steer us in the right direction.
I cannot believe how seeemingly intelligent people cannot understand this.
Am sure all will bet that it will be you (the bitchest of all bitches) that will rot in hell and not the greatest statesman of all times who gave an Identity and all that we enjoy today to our country incluing you.
As a matter of fact I think you are already rotting in hell even though still alive. You have no shame and you have made it clear manyatimes that you are unhuman and deserve nothing more then be tortured in a village pjazza
You only wish you had a fraction of the respect Dom Mintoff .
gets.
I dare you to publish this.
No one respects Mintoff. You’re confusing servile adulation with real respect.
IMHO=KING
at the first whiff of decaying flesh, the Vulture inevitably squawks… Martin Baron
Wow! Unbelievable! To hold still such a grudge against someone whose last major political activity involved helping your beloved party to power. When was this? Oh, yes! Last millennium.
Speaking of hypocrites, to say he was perfect is as vile as claiming all the blue boys are holier-than-thou. Perhaps you might want to consider some positive contributions he made such as taking a stance against the church. An institution that was surely more cancerous to society for a far longer period and in which parasitic traces can be found not only by the hypocrisy of it’s followers but by the far reaching effect of ‘bad conscience’ it is guilty of inflicting throughout Europe and beyond. Evidence found in your article above.
Perhaps you should have celebrated your birthday and enjoyed this ‘glory’ privately rather than showing how low one can stoop. Speaking your mind can be psychologically beneficial, and considering the contempt and bitterness you held for so long, recommendable. However, please keep it to you inner circle, cause as you put it, such behaviour is indeed totally crass
‘its followers’ just not to give you the satisfaction and hope to earn some brownie points….
Your funeral will come one day, and Malta will be celebrating and your funeral will be one hell of a party.
[Daphne – Hardly. Unlike Mintoff’s, it will be private.]
We still hear about it and on that day i will get drunk :+)
You’ll hardly have any other choice, Daphne.
No shit … I mean honestly, who would want to pay respects to a woman who lacks even the most basic of common courtesies? The only reason why your funeral will be private is so that people don’t come in masses to spit on your coffin.
Your point being what daphne? that all of malta will not know that you died? i can guarantee that just after minutes after your death your own doctor will tweet it. you’re making it seem that your private funeral will save you from the hatred you’ll recieve from the people….it won’t.
Of course it will be, you would be lucky to even have anyone
mintoff jixraqlu hi imma int zgur li le posibli ma tidejaqx tamel ghedewa just for the sake to be kokky mintiex timpresjonana ta hi jien qed nejd li int forsi andek bzon lajnuna ghal mohok sorry tal is spelling imma jien ek inhob nikteb fuq il pc ha nagel
Your above comments show what kind of person you are and I can only pity you! May God help you!
You never disappoint – though bit’s not nice to see a mind like a cesspit overflowing.
You are a crazy woman ehh !
You are right in saying that your life would have been totally different had it not been for Dom Mintoff. Firstly you would not have been entitled for a vote, remember the Malta Labour Party gave the right to women to vote. Secondly you might not have become such a thrash writer or even a writer for the matter. So whatever you are today,be it good or bad Mintoff had a role in it. Your Beauty or the lack of it cannot however be attributed to him.When your time is up I sincerely hope that you will not be judged by what you wrote on hearing about Dom Mintoff’s demise which I find shameful. I hope that the Nationalist Party in government will disassociate itself from your remarks and that the state funeral will give its true value to the most prominent Maltese statesman of the 20th Century.
Tghid se jaghmlu Parnis il-Grend Lonc nhar il-gimgha, wara li safa’ orfni ta’ Mintoff?
Nahseb issa se jkollu jgholli l-figura tar-rigali li se jtella, biex l-orfni kollha jkollhom biex jixtru mkatar ha jimshu d-dmugh.
Qaluli li jmexxi l-korteo se jkun hemm Alfred Sant bil-libsa l-bajda li kien libes f’Bormla fl’1998.
Fuck you bitch
you are nothing but a slut, low class bitch
issa saru jafu l ingliz hejj
How dare you tell something like this you piece of shit !?
I’ll be the first one who spit on your grave you bitch !!!
[Daphne – You won’t find it, darling. It’s in the smart part of the cemetery. And it’s ‘say’, not tell.]
alek ma jsibukx ax tkun midfuna fil misbla
oh dont worry bitch i’ll find your grave …. I want to see your guts out on the floor
[Daphne – Yes, I know. Don’t forget for one minute that I grew up in a Malta run by violent turds like you. I never thought you went away. You just raised the next generation. L-aqwa li jisimna Dale, bhal l-Inglizi li tant nobghodu. Effing freaks.]
I just can’t stop reading here the hell do you get off? maaaaaaaaaaa correcting ppls mistake?? really??? df i wrong with you?
Happy birthday Daphne, I just celebrated mine a couple of weeks ago.
Daphne you need help believe me, psychiatric help I mean. You are truly sick. Maybe one day you will regret that you have made such comments.
[Daphne – Never. The only thing I regret is not being able to use on the internet the litany of pejoratives I have been using in speech all evening.]
He was a political giant, one who walked over everything and everyone.
I will not to speak ill of the dead but good riddance to those recurring “Mintoff hospitalized” headlines. That’s quite a load off the tax payers’ money. Are we going to get our tax rate reduction now?
Foxx il qabar ta familtek liba u min ghad irid jinzel go fih aa qahba !
Happy birthday, Daphne. You certainly got a birthday present you will never forget.
I too feel no remorse at Mintoff’s passing away.
It is a pity it took him so long. Today the world is a better place.
As for those saints marching out, I don’t think that where he is heading, he is going to encounter many saints.
My sentiments exactly. My own father never lived to the grand old age of 96 but died early as a direct result of Dom’s spiteful policies.
My own child never reached adulthood. Her death was directly connected to the shoddy services (or rather the lack of them) provided by Dom’s best health service in the world.
Now that he is no more, I hope he will get exactly what he deserves in the next world, if there is one.
I am so sorry for your loss. I totally empathise with you.
My own beloved mother died at the young age of 50, in 1981, in the mess that was then St Luke’s Hospital.
Perhaps, if these Laburisti had lost someone close to them thay would understand why we are not shedding any tears at the death of Mintoff.
yes like the new hospital Mater dei is better, cancer machines not working…. not enough beds.. patients on stretchers…. not enough medicines…. waiting YEASRS for an operation?! what the hell??? and this is what you would call a Better life?! They should make Dom Mintoff a Saint! and put all those who say bad things about him in hell so that they can reflect on how stupid they are! Mintoff changed Malta and throughout his leadership he managed to make Malta better! I respect that some people don’t like him but not that much to spit on his grave?!! AND SAY IT IN PUBLIC come on!!! this only shows that the nazzjonalisti are full of hatred and hate anyone who makes competition! Seeing all these comments made me realise more how much the PNs hate the maltese and are not trying to improve Malta but to make it suffer by being lead for other years by you PNs…. People like you Daphne should be ashamed to say Youre Maltese and ashamed to say youre human because even animals are always loyal to their leader even when he ill treats them sometimes because they have faith in him and Love him just as much as we love dom mintoff. but dont worry! mintoff being a great person will forgive you for all the bad things you said and if you feel like spitting on his grave then do so.. but you’ll be the sinner then.. not him!
@mzammit
Iva mela St.Lukes, jew Mimosa Hospital kif kellu il-hsieb li jbiddlu Mintoff, fejn it-tabib ma tifimx x qed jghidlek ghax Pakistan. Ghax Mintoff ma ridx ihallas lit-tobba maltin.
“….but quite frankly, the saints will probably go marching OUT once he walks in’
Are you sure he’ll make it that far?
As I sat down for a late supper, the news broke followed by a documentary on Dear Dom on NET TV.
I enjoyed supper and even had dessert, which I do not normally indulge in.
Although, as the documentary went through events chronologically, it got worse by the minute, inducing a high degree of revulsion in my guts, but somehow I still managed to enjoy a lovely meal. I felt no remorse but in the end, I pitied the man.
He could have done so much more, so much good had it not been his super ego, so patronizing and so bull headed.
He was the master of short term gain for a long term pain. He divided Malta and left Malta divided and still in pain of remembering this tin-pot tyrant, though some even go as far as describing him a ‘giant’, a ‘hero’ and a ‘statesman’.
It’s very sad that you did’nt choke on your pretty supper. But hope you will choke on you next one. Good luck!!!
angus …may the supper you had gets you a slow stomach cancer……..now stuff youtr jelousy as Mintoff ruled Malta for over 20 years and you are nothing but a piece of shit…..fuck you and may your children get AIDS
M. Gauci, i’ve never commented on a blog in my life, but when i saw your comment i must admit it got me thinking. You are one hell of an idiot!
“Cancer machine.” There is no such thing as a “cancer machine.”
That would imply a machine that causes cancer. What I suppose you are referring to is a radiation machine.
If you don’t like the service offered at Mater Dei, at least you have the choice of going to a private hospital.
We were not so lucky. Mintoff closed the only two private hospitals on the island and we had no choice but to go to St Luke for our medical care.
Mintoff had locked the Maltese doctors out of the hospital because of the doctors’ dispute so it was staffed with the medical students and foreign doctors. It was a place of chaos. Truly a nightmare.
As for Mintoff being forgiving, are you kidding me? You really don’t know anything about him, do you? He was one of the most unforgiven and vindictive man who ever lived.
Ofcourse you removed the comment/s, She Devil !
[Daphne – I didn’t remove them, Darren. They’re all here waiting for upload while I was out on the town celebrating. Now I’m back and going through them. Such fun being reminded what a load of chicken-brains Mintoff had for fans.]

Dear Mrs Caruana Galizia, as a Maltese person I am utterly disgusted with this post, as a labourite i’m not surprised nor impressed by what you’ve written. I will not stoop to such a low level to reply in kind and wish you any of the colorfull wishes you’ve just sent to Dom Mintoff. I appreciate that Mr. Mintoff didn’t go down well with a portion of the Maltese society, thats quite normal in a democracy, however I salute Dom Mintoff for the good deeds he done and for the social revolution he brought to his dear Malta.
I wish you well,
Malcolm Farrugia.
That’s one social revolution we could have done without. It hasn’t done much for his disciples thinking skills, for a start.
Three words
What are you?
She is one of the best journalists of Malta.
Hah! With such journalism, no wonder it’s not considered a profession by many.
Constructive not destructive. When a person dies at least have respect for the family. I wonder what she would do if someone close had to die and comments like these are passed. It’s a pity she acts this way as she ruins the whole image of her family. Well daphne I won’t swear at you or go down to your level with indecent comments but would love to hear from you and know if you where dropped on the floor when you where a baby?
Really?????
I didn’t quite like Dom Mintoff either, but I find this article to be in bad taste. At the end of it all, this article does not affect me in any actual way, however, you have managed to upset a belligerent bunch of Mintofjani to an extreme this time.
[Daphne – Yes, that’s exactly why I do it. The expressions are ‘rattling their cage’ and ‘yanking their chains’. We were on our way out yesterday when I said, wait, before we leave I have to upload something about how happy I am that the old bugger has popped it at last, so that on our return I’ll find 300 comments threatening me with death and torture in dyslexic sentences, all of which I shall upload to show what sort of people vote Labour.]
I wonder if you realize that this article could end up hurting you, and I do not mean career-wise (you’re already in the toilet as far as I’m concerned). Perhaps, soon enough, someone else who you probably loathe with a profound passion will be writing an article about your death, though I quite doubt you’ll make it to old age at the rate you’re upsetting people.
[Daphne – I don’t know whether you’ve worked this one out yet, A M, but when I’m dead I’m not going to be bothered about some person writing an article ‘that will hurt me’. The dead are beyond reach. It’s not as though Mintoff is sobbing in some corner saying ‘look at what that bitch wrote about me’. More’s the pity, of course. Fortunately, I had more than enough time to let him know what I think before he went senile and lost the ability to read it.]
Your capability of seriously angering the ignorant (or your opinion of what journalism is) will inevitably backfire on you.
[Daphne – Wrong. Staying silent will. We got saddled with Mintoff because of fear.]
You’re a real bitch!
If Mintoff was a sociopath …you are no less! YOU are appalling and hateful! I wish no harm to people…..but I might end up wishing you to rot in hell…you’re evil!!!
The difference, Lisa, is that Mintoff was in power and stayed there, wreaking havoc over everyone’s lives, including yours, though you wouldn’t know it.
Disgusting – truly disgusting.
[Daphne – I agree. He was awful. Oh, do you mean me?]
do you have to ask? of course you!!!
[Daphne – I forget that practically no Maltese do irony.]
It’s called sarcasm….. bitch
[Daphne – You do it so well, darling. I almost didn’t notice.]
of course you didnt notice …. cause you are too fucking stupid !

Dak kollu li ghandu x’jaqsam mal-Partit ‘glorjuz’ tal-Lejber huwa moqziez u min ihaddan il-politika Mintoffjana huwa “bla Qalb u bla Demm”. Issa insew lill Alfred Sant u ibdlu isem l-‘orfni’ ghax dalwaqt tibdew ssejhulu ‘Salvatur Mk II’.
Kif taf li Qatluh il-laburisti?? Hemm Provi?? Inthom Dawk Il-Grajjiet Biss Tafu Isemmu ma semmhux it-tajjeb li ghamel ghal Malta. Ghakez lil malta??? MELA GONZI X’QIEGHED JAGHMEL>>???????

you can say DOM or you can say MINTOFF the world over and most will remember him as a great statesman.
say Caruana Galizia and you get a smell of a tin of an out of date. stinking sardines.
Well, we could always line up to throw horseshit at his coffin. At least one of the mourners would understand.
Daphne you are already rotten here,your looks,your poisonous tongue,your hatred, your relations throughout are all ingredients to book you a solid place ,which you most deserve near the king of demons,,lucifere,where you both make a formidable couple , but then i think that the king of hell (your future residence ) won’t want you near him you stink too much,body and soul.
He finally kicked the bucket.
I will now say a prayer for all those good people of Malta and Gozo who were born after this vile bastard and died prematurely way before him because of his vindictiveness and hate and the turmoil for which he was 100% responsible.
By God, that prick hated his own countrymen.
You filthy piece of shit!
Now that he’s dead, I feel no sympathy for him whatsoever. Actually, I’m enjoying a glass of champagne.
The prayer I said this evening is not for him, but the miscarried brother I lost in the 1980s after my mother was thrown out of work and beaten by the SMU for being a Nationalist party supporter.
who gives a shit ?
The Mintoffian epitome…
your brother was a bull…I still remember him, a glass of champagne to the bull too!!
A QAHBA……. ALLA JRID JOHLOQ MARA LI>>A BHALEK . TAHSEB LI INT SPECCJALI ???? HADD MA JAHMLEK ……..PUTTANA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not cool.
[Daphne – I’ll have to point out to people that you’re not THE Richard Muscat – you know, just in case they become confused.]
No I’m not. (In case they haven’t go it.)
To clarify my rather pithy comment, I’m old enough to remember Mintoff and KMB’s shenanigans and even witnessed close up various violent incidents in Rabat pre-1987. Mintoff’s death is no loss to Malta.
However I don’t see the benefit of revelling in his death. I’d much rather see people like you take the higher moral ground. (Not hard, frankly.) The potential long-term downside of this sort of post is greater than the short-lived upside. If there even is one.
[Daphne – ‘To clarify my rather pithy comment’. My God, who are these people?]
fox il liba ommok daphne
Classy!
Boo fucking boo hoo hoo.

U dan ghax l-injoranza iddejjaqni fuq kull naha, ma nistax nissaporti bhalissa. Ha nikoregilek ftit l-ortografija:
“Nirrah il-hdura l’ghandek tirrizulta f’cancer f’kull cellola ta’ dak l-ikrah, mghaffeg, liba, catt gismek.”
Mintoff kien jaf jikteb.

well personally I think that you should get a hobbie as you think that you are superior and perfect but guess what you are a fuckin bitch which in turn you show youre depression in life and sadness. let him rest in peace oh wait you’re foreshadowing your own death
And do you mean ‘hobby’, by the way?
Don’t come back to say it was just a typo. The ‘i’ is to the right and the ‘e’ is to the left of the ‘y’ you missed! LOL
Yes I agree, Mintoff should be left alone to rust in peace.
Mixa must belong to the “Holly Hobbie” doll (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holly_Hobbie) generation.
are you here daphne ?
Is this a philosophical question?
Good riddance to Mintoff.
He has cost me money for the last time: excellent bubbly. Took tomorrow off to celebrate well.
Coming to Malta for the pleasure of dancing on his grave.
How are those pitchforks up your arse, you bastard?
Rot in hell!
You certainly lead a very sad life.
You would have led an even sadder life, ‘Qeghdin Sew’ if only you had the fortune of living during the Socialist years. You know, those years which you usually refer to as the ‘golden era’.
Go have a fresh glass of water straight from your kitchen tap, because you can and then shower to your heart’s content without being advised to have a swim (Summer or Winter) because the water supply has been turned off.
probably you’re a more of a bastard saying such things. Have some respect asshole.
How sad… You must be a very disturbed person
Good riddance, Mintoff, you utter piece of shit.
You can now join your best friend Muammar Gaddafi in hell, and you deserved an end similar to his.
I see the usual litany of intellectual profundity coming your way.
I can just imagine you uploading and laughing your head off.
Good on you, Daphne – you have balls, I must say.
she has balls? i always thought she’s a shemale
HAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA FQAJT LALLA HAHAHAHA
Definitely more balls then you will ever have, hanini!
An expert in shemales, are you?
hmmmm.
at least can you explain why u have such hatred for this man? and why our lifes would have been so much better? RIP Dom Mintof
Were you even born thirty years ago?
I assure you I was born 30 years ago dear, and never lived happier. We were happy, maybe we had nothing but we were happy……something which nowadays I can’t see in today’s children and obviously not even in DCG.
PS: Don’t worry babe, il-PN wara l-gabra ta’ €5 ha jipprova jaghmel gabra ghalik forsi jirnexxielu jsib kura ghal mohhok. Mr. Black, b’solidarjeta lilek nitolbuk tohrog €100. In the meantime I suggest u stay on prozac!!!!!
Poor and happy, were you? It pays to be ignorant.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
You are so right MLK, so tonight I will light up a big spliff and put on some tunes from the age of the “heavy” biex imbahhar the evil spirits away and let the love in.

I’m a die hard Nationalist, but your comments are totally a disgrace and pathetic!
The devil has claimed one of his own.
RIP? Rot In Penance.
u can tell that if theres like 5 comments against mintoff are all from you DAPHNE ur bloddy sick from the head, ur metally ill… suck a fucken disgrace to have u as a maltese!! 1 last thing… may this be ur last birthday , u UGLY sick bastard!!!!
My god, your English is dreadful. Ibni mhux ahjar tmur l-iskola?
My late father was fond of that old saying:
“Kullhadd jilbes il-libsa tal-hatab”.
And in this case I am ever so glad that they do just that.

So how come nobody condemns this poet’s post? What he’s saying is far worse than what DCG said. And far more worrying.
Why do all these people care what Daphne thinks about Mintoff?
I am waiting for them to go and ask Alfred Sant what he thinks and what his sentiments are. Is he going to say he’s sorry for calling him a traitor?
As if Sant would still be carrying that chip on his shoulder.
[Daphne – You don’t know much about him if you think he’s not one to bear grudges. He bears terrible grudges. Surely you should have been able to observe this from his public statements and behaviour.]
Utmost disgraceful piece of disrespect I have come across shame on you, for even writing that ! I live in Australia and find that article disturbing, I meet Dom Mintoff in 1990 enjoying his past time at Dalimara a true gentleman inviting us on many occasions, He put Malta on the map of the world, I’m sure your enjoying the fruits of this era and bad mouthing Mintoff at the same time Shame on you!
[Daphne – Yes, Frank, I know that you emigrated to Australia and that you’re a Mintoffian, because you told me. Not that you needed to, because practically all the Maltese who emigrated there were Mintoffians. And that can only be a good thing, because imagine if you’d all stayed here. The frigging bastard would still be prime minister.]
Sad very sad that you view history in this way , open your eyes and open your ears and learn that making Malta what it is today had to have a starting point and that starting point was what Dom Mintoff did for Malta , in life some times if you believe in it and see greatness you push as hard as you can to achieve it ! your not going to tell me what Malta is today just happened , Malta today is MAGNIFICENT and has evolved into a beautiful island and prosperity and its name is known all around the world …your article just proves to me and to many you have alot of learning to do … if you had any future in politics i think you have just closed the door on your self , and by the way many Australian Maltese NATIONALIST OR LABOUR like Mr Dominic Mintoff or not would respect his work and not disrespect him in the way you have done with your article
May he rot in hell
hope you’ll join him soon
diga hija haga kerha li rridu naraw dan it tajjir zejjed meta kien haj imma li titkellem hekk fuqu issa li miet ? xej mara bla rispett int ! tifel ta hames snin matur iktar minnek nira alla jsabbtek

The bastard finally snuffed it.
Will he take is hoard of money with him now?
Hardly.
He will rot in hell watching the family that he hated and humiliated all his life enjoying his ill-gotten goods, whilst all he will get will be a bad case of worms.
careful what you wish for babe :/ there’s a thing called karma! peace out!
[Daphne – Kemm tifmu fil-karma, God bless. Ma tafux tiktbu u tahsbu, imma l-aqwa li nikkwotaw il-karma ghax xi haga ‘cool’ li skoprejna l-bierah.]
Aħjar titgħallem tikteb bil-Malti sew l-ewwel purċinella
[Daphne – Dak hu Malti sew. Ma tarfux ghax muhiex il-Malti tal-working class, imma l-Malti ta’ Dawk il-Bastids L-Ohrajn.]
You confused me ‘Defni’ are you talking to me, or the rest of the forum? Please I invite you to correct my grammar! Bitchy as it may be, I don’t mind. That means I will learn something new today! But if my grammar is correct, than stop stating useless comments like these ‘Ma tafux tiktbu u tahsbu’ cause your sticking to one argument hence being pathetic!
[Daphne – It’s Daphne, with a flat A and not an e, as in ‘cat’, which you probably pronounce ‘ket’ anyway.]
I like calling you ‘Defni’ is suits you…. Some people call me Benji :)
[Daphne – Exactly my point. And when other people call you Banji, you think that they have that Maltese problem with vowel sounds.]
when I’m in a bitchy mood I tend to dislike it yes, but on the whole I’m not that sensitive… happy pill Dahp?
[Daphne – I don’t do pills, sorry. But if you have any going spare, ring 9998 8877 and offer them to Franco Debono.]
hahahaha good one, I liked this one! seriously you cracked me up!
stay sure babe that at some point in time we can easily say that you sucked it!!!!! always remember that we live under the same sky, ad the last hour will come to everyone. at least he will be remembered forever while you, and all those BASTARDS, RETARDED AND MENTALLY DISTURBED people who wrote such cruelty about Mintoff will rot in hell. Of course you have got a different DNA inside you bunch of pig shit as I guess no such cruelty was said when one of the ex PN Ministers died like you did on Mintoff’s death. You guys never finish to impress, but at least we know with whom we are dealing in 2012, that results how you should be treated after
happy birthday whore! I hope you choke on your cake
Muscat said that he feels orphaned by the death of Dom.
I do not harbour such feelings. My mother was not a whore, my father not a cuckold and I am no bastard. If he feels orphaned, that’s his problem.
bhal li kieku jekk kienet tinhexa ommok ma dak u ma l iehor ha tigi tajdlek jekk kienetx qahba lol
Shouldn’t there be a Maltese version for “lol”? You know, when you’re writing in Maltese? Suggestions?
you such a bitch go fuck your mother
[Daphne – ‘Go fuck your mother’, like ‘bastard’ and ‘cunt’, are terms of abuse which English usage reserves exclusively for men. ‘Go fuck your mother’ is not a lesbian insult.]
you could use your nose :P
(poor mum)
da kollu ax xi darba hxilek lommok u rabba il qrun il missierk , kurnuta !
Madonna some Maltese words, particularly the swear words are so expressive that I cannot help not bursting in laughter.
Mintoff was such a perfect target and recipient during most of his political life.
Le, ta. Ghandek zball. Mintoff hexa Malta.
Allura anke Viva Mintoff kien mohxi minn Mintoff.
You should be ashamed of your self!
These words of hate over a deceased person should never come out of the pen of a public figure like you.
Always knew you were a sick bitch, but this time its a little too much.
May you rot in hell you sick fuck, together with your family and those who support you.
We celebrated with pink champagne and then burped a big one……ghal wiccu. Our bet was that Alfred Sant celebrated likewise the demise of the TRADITUR.
issa ahna niccelebraw fl’elezjoni danton u nitfawqu al wicc il korruzjoni tal “gvern” maqsum li ghandkom
Maqsum – kemm tridu – imma ghadu sod u f’postu, kontra taghkom li dam biss 22 xahar! He He He. U hekk hu, kif qal Danton – Alfred Sant ukoll qed jiccelebra l-mewt tat-traditur.
Dream on
Ja qahba imxajtna, ghax dak li int! U jekk ghandek il-gazz urih dal-messagg, ja DEMEL!!
U jahseb li guts tinkiteb gazz.
Hadd qatt ma ghallmu li hi kelma bl-Ingliz u mhux bil-Malti.
U int dardart l alla minalik taf tikteb hafna!
aqtaha naqa u tindahalx
Inkella x’taghmel Yanika? Ha ssikkitni? Ma nindahalx ghala? Mela mhux daqshekk ghandi dritt nikteb li rrid? Jew irrid bilfors naqbel mieghek?
mux gazz anda imma lil xbinha japoggja, dak li gab pupazz lil gonzi tahom u ifhimni
Alfred Sant kien sar il-‘pupazz’ ta Mintoff, jekk tiftakar sew, Chris.
Int bis serjeta int mentali. andek problemi fmohhok mintx fpostok. tkelem ekk fuq familtek li jirah imutu mewta kerha u bik bkollox, biex titkelem ekk fuq nies li nasigura ruhi int nazjonalista u tejd ekk ax ommok u missirek (li nahseb naqa mentali biex gabu lilek titkelem) ekk ghalmuk.
To whom it may concern: It takes one to recognize one.
Daphne I admire your work very very much.
To me you are a true journalist because you are not ashamed of saying the truth.
Do not let people bring you down with their words because you truly stand up for those people that have seen cruelty through mintoff’s ways.
As said in a previous comment ‘GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD RUBBISH’.
Continue doing what you do Daphne. My family amd I are behind you all the way and not us alone, because many other Maltese think so highly of you. I don’t even consider Mintoff a human being let alone give him my respect. And have a good birthday Daph Xxx
i dont consider you human being considering your hatred you fuckin cunt. shame on your parents to raise you like that.
minjaf x’duzunur ghal genituri taha.! twaqqalom wiccom l’art
[Daphne – Ahna m’ahniex familja tar-rahal, Chris. Ma noqghodux naghtu kaz x’jahsbu n-nies. Dawk affarijiet ghan-nies bhalek, li jibzghu li l-ohrajn jahsbuhom hamalli jew mhux mittilkless bizzejjed.]
Daphne iva jie mir-rahal u kburi, minn daqshekk ghandek ragun li jimpurtani xi ftit jew wisq minn ta’ madwari, ma noqghodx il-bidnija ghal imwarrab halli x’hin inwaddab il-platti lil mara tieghi ma jismghani hadt!

Whatever
then you’re a fucking ignorant cunt like her!
ghandek x tamira ! hlief tajjar lin-nies ma tafx
nahseb mera’ sew id-dae maghndiex din !!
i consider you like a bitch not human being you fucking nazzjonalizt bastard
hmm …. i never liked mintoff and i will never agree with his politics but to tell you the truth your comments shocked me really. i mean the guy just passed away! give him and his family a break!
It’s so ironic he died on your birthday. Haha. Happy birthday.
Isthi ja wicc ta liba, mur hudu foxx kemm ghandek. Tuza kliem bhal dawn. Jekk narak wiccek inkissirulek. Issa ghid dan il kliem fuq xi membru fil familja tieghek meta jhallina minn wicc id dinja.
Tinsiex habib li l-internet juzawh ukoll it tfal, u malajr jistaw jaqraw dak kollu li ktibt, ikteb li thoss ghax hawn il liberta tal kelma imma jahasra kun nadif fi kliemek, tista tesprimi li thoss bil kelma tajba xorta. Il gurnata tajba ‘Unknown’
(Forgot to write it on my previous post) Happy Birthday Daphne. Don’t forget to go to the Notting Hill Carnival.
I fail to see why some people are surprised at your comments as it is just further proof, not than any was required in my opinion, of what a repulsive bitch you are. Have you any idea just how happy people will be when you die, which given the way you look can’t be far off. Just think, even members of your own and Peter’s families will be glad to see the back of you and the Nationalist Party will breathe a huge sigh of relief that they are no longer associated with you and your foul mouth. The good point to all this is that every time you come off with crap like this you lose that twat Gonzi more votes!
You did not live in Malta at the time this tyrant was in power do you have no right to comment. Why don’t you go back to your country and take your stupid opinions with you. People rejoiced when Gaddafi died, so what is different now?
Ah, a lecture from a former member of an organisation created to persecute the weak, the downtrodden and the underprivileged.
You’d have had a great time in Mintoff’s police force, torturing innocent people for a laugh.
Scum.
Have you any idea how ridiculous compensating for your life’s failures by obsessing about someone who – ahem – lives in another country?
What ever happened to free speech? Everyone has their own opinion. You are free to say whatever you like, but all the swearing and cursing is very naive. Remember, what is done to you, creates you. That is a basic principle of the universe. Im sure people have plenty of reasons to love/hate him. Just because he died it doesnt mean you have to lie….. What u thought before is how u should feel now. Prosit Daph, you have balls of steel and i admire you even if i disagreed.
Oqod ejdila prosit vera haqqa ee. Xandu xjaqsam il free of speech imbad emm is sens ta rispett ukoll.
Ahjar titghalmu x’inhu freedom of speech l-ewwel!
Lanqs jien ma naqbel ma’ li kitbet, pero I will defend her right to say what she wants to say forever!
Ghax f’socjeta civili, m’ghandux ikun hemm censura tal-media.
Ghandu jkun hemm limitu xorta u mhux immorru ghall estrem
Limitu? U min jiddecidih dan il-limitu? Xi dittatur jew?
U hallina u ifthu naqra mohhkom jahasra! Tghixu in a bubble back in Malta u tahsbu li hadd ma jista ghalikom u dak li tghidu huwa kollu tajjeb.
Go abroad, travel, live outside of Malta and learn how other people live, milli ha tibqa with your village mentality.
Gej bil-limitu, mela qed nieklu il-pastizzi jew?
@Johnusa …dictators? like what the US wants to do with Assange? Like keeping Manning imprisoned for over 2 years now.
Vera mara bla valuri u bla ebda manjiera. Rip Dom Mintoff. Daphne jalla ssib lil xi hadd mignun aktar minnek u jehles minnek darba ghal dejjem u minn kull min jigi minn demmek,ghax demm ahdar ghandek
By the way, there is a death threat above by someone. I would report it to the police if i was you. Not funny at all.
[Daphne – I receive death threats all the time. What do you expect? These are f**king Mintoffiani we’re talking about here. They’re people who set off bombs and shot and maimed and set fire to The Times with employees still inside. They’re horrendous. To support a socipath you’ve got to have some of those tendencies yourself.]
Ma nahsibx li se joqodu jcapcula uxx wara dal artiklu li kitbet. Hdura pura
Jien capcaptila ghax ghanda ragun.
liissss erdali il bajd
[Daphne – Cempel 9998 8877 u saqsi ghal Franco Debono. Dak ghandu halqu l-veru kbir u ilsienu twil ukoll.]
Well said..He started the instability in Malta..His party used ex-convicts to do the dirty work.
emm you don`t remember when you sick fuckers used to bury people in the mizbla .?
Stop blaming others for your superstitious ignorance.
Injorant. Qatt mort “il-mizbla”? Ja Injorant. Il-‘mizbla’ (fejn inddifnu sitta minn nies b’kollox) hija l-parti tac-cimiteru fejn jindifnu l-protestanti. U l-ateji. U minn jigi skumnikat. Injorant.
U ghaliex indifnu hemm? Ghax il-laburist Mintoff beda glieda mal-laburist Isqof Gonzi. Glieda interna taghkom din. Twahhlux id-difetti u l-izbalji taghkom f’hadd iehor.
Injorant
Iz-zibel ghal hemm tajjeb.
socipath?? DAPHNE ghandek spelling mistake !! illallu x’ha taghmel issa? ilek tikkoregi tant nies ghax minghalik li jekk tikkoregi lil haddiehor, juri kemm int brava! Forsi Mintoff ma kienx perfett imma ‘sabiha’ mis- sema l- isfel hadd m’hu. Naqbel mieghek li ghandek tesprimi dak li thoss imma f’ kazijiet bhal dawn (li huma vera rari) nixtieq li kont nghix f’pajjiz dittatorjali ha nidhku imbghad :)
i am not a mintoffiana at all.. still u deserve the worst for your hatred towards ppl.. u r no different from all d scum in prision
Setting fire to the times was indeed horrendous as was the blowing up of the Kirkop MLP club, the death of Karen Grech, the tolling of church bells to disrupt one ‘s political opponent mass meeting with the blessing of the police under PN rule, ( PN=democracy ?……Please ) , not to forget EFA being carried on ZEPPI L – HAFI ‘ S shoulders. Not to mention the kind of security personnel guarding the PN headquarters this lately. Nahseb li kulhadd ghandu xi jxomm taht idejh hux veru ? Hatred and violence in this country started much earlier than the mintoff era and YES the mintoff administration was unable to stop it. Shameful indeed as is shameful the promotion of violent MLP era police officers to higher ranks under EFA, I will never beleive that those officers were ever mintoffjani , more likely PN supporters doing their best to stain MLP ‘ s image and my god it worked.
You crossed the line.
[Daphne – Oh, there is a line? And where was the line that Mintoff didn’t cross, Mr Falzon? These islands are stuffed full of idiots. No wonder we got him in the first place.]
then you are one of the idiots .. why are stil living in maltaa thenn ????
oh god Daphne :) two other spelling mistakes!! what is wrong with you?? getting frustrated???
http://grammartips.homestead.com/than.html i guess you need some english grammar lessons too :)
Yes, why is it you are stuck in Malta Daphne?
Seriously Daphne, you probably will ridicule my expression, but i have been going through all your replies to these ghastly comments, and low class language, and the only phrase that comes to mind is: ‘You Rock!’
And I can answer a few of you as to why she is still living in Malta. Where else can she go? Every 5 seconds she comes across yet another comical Labour-inspired article to dish out to all her haters who funnily enough engage in reading her blog daily, until early hours of the morning.
Continue entertaining her, guys, for she is definitely succeeding in entertaining me.
Values, by the way? Oh yes, that’s it. Disgusting language used in your comments. A prime example of Labour’s values. Close-minded and horrified comments? Another such value.
Continue enjoying her blog. Let me not keep you any longer. I’ll go and watch something refreshing. One TV anyone?
Oh and let’s not forget the exceptional spelling. Another Labour value.
If god existed, in the near future you should die in an accident, but that surely won’t happen.. you will be killed :)
Im disgusted your parents raised you this way unless they left you on the streets to die to hell and you didn’t. If they raised you like that well to hell with them. I hope when they die you hear those kind of words! i hope when you die your children would say those words. i hope when your children die people will say: the child of that fucked up witch died finally!
He did more harm than any other politician in Malta.
Many Maltese had to emigrate. You can tell what character he was from the friends he kept, namely Gaddafi, The Chinese Communists, the North Koreans, the dictators of the Soviet bloc, Lorry Sant…etc
He became filthy rich through rebuilding under the War Damage programme. He also forced people to bath in rusted water, and buy inferior expired products during his regime.
He was a bastard, and used to make fun of his own supporters during those famous riots or public meetings. He once called the Shipyard workers, his own beloved supporters, men without balls. I was there, observing.
vera qeda sew ee !!!!
may YOU rest in hell not himm !!!!
VERA BLA QALB HADDRRAA KOLLOK
[Daphne – Rot, sha, rot. Not rest.]

@Johnusa. Same reasoning that Jack Kerouac was criticized by those who lacked imagination and creativity, feared change and deluded themselves that following the old rules made them smarter. What is the use of flawless lexical skills when one can’t spot how wrong this article is on so many levels?
Nithassrek. Fil-veru sens tal-kelma, nithassrek.

@Rob79. Jack Kerouac? Seriously? As if you can compare his writing to this girl writing on this blog in the same way she would update her facebook status to: ‘xower and off to pijjvijj’. Kerouac knew how to spell unlike sha over her who wouldn’t recognise good spelling if it draped itself in a Labour flag and threw horse shit at her…

Fi zmien Mintoff go xi fabrika tat-tessuti b’paga minima kont issib tahdem, jekk kont tal-qalba. Jekk le, forsi kien jigbrok ma xi dejma, jew mal-Pijunieri w jhallsek bis-soldi. U dawk bla xoghol kienu ta xi 12 fil-mija meta l-impjegati ma kienux ilahhqu 100,00 ruh.
Illum issib xoghol tajjeb, pagi tajbin, nies bla xoghol anqas minn 7 fil-mija, safar bl-addocc, karrozzi godda u z-zejjed, restaurants ippakkjati bil-Maltin, kulljum u kullimkien. Fi zmien Mintoff xi landa tonn taz-zejt kont issib – meta kien isib xi konsinna skaduta w b’irhis.
Dik hajja! Dak lussu! Dak veru ghaks!
I agree with you, and even being gone from Malta for the past 20 years hasn’t changed the way I feel about this man who tried but failed to take away our freedom, who persecuted us in our own homes and robbed us of our belongings.
Happy birthday from the USA where freedom of speech reigns supreme!
tried to take your freedom? its amazing how hatred distorts reality. Reality is he brought you freedom. And now that freedom is gone again, as Malta still has to answer to the EU. That is the problem with the nationalist party. They never believed Malta could stand on its own two feet, never believed that its people are capable of running it on their own terms. Its disgraceful to be like that. The highlight of ones career is when he gets a job overseas, as its regarded as you are so good as they employed you overseas!
what did they rob you of? did they come to your house and steal from you? in the name of labour and mintoff?
And yes in america freedom of speech reings supreme, but you cannot go get free medical assistance like you get in Malta. So god fordbid you ever need it, i hope you have good insurance or they can cure you with a speech.
I am spending too much time here, but just this one and I will pack it in.
You CANNOT use the word ‘Freedom’ and ‘Mintoff’ in the same sentence, no shame no gain.
Freedom is not burning The Times and destroying its presses because it did not agree with his policies.
Freedom is not shutting down the courts whenever he liked especially when some government case was looking bad.
Freedom is not denying the NP to have a radio and television station and had to transmit from Sicily.
Freedom is not barring foreign journalists from reporting about the political scene in Malta.
Freedom is not denying or restricting the number of secondary students from entering university.
Freedom is not harassing Nationalist supporters when attending meetings even when all permits were issued.
Freedom is not allowing Labour Party thugs to invade and destroy private property.
Freedom is not failing to renew an agreement with Britain but sell the country to a fellow dictator by the name of Gaddafi.
Liberty is not requisitioning, without compensation, private property for ‘government projects’ only to be converted to Labour Party clubs.
The list is too long to continue, but if this government had the guts, it would freeze all of Mintoff’s assets and bank accounts and do justice with those who are still holding empty bags since their property was stolen so many years ago and whose shares in banks were seized without compensation in the National Bank rape.
Yeah, but atleast in the USA you don’t have to wait for weeks if not months to be looked at or god forbid need an operation. Don’t trash my Country (USA).
And from what i’ve been told , and seen from old clips him and his party ruled through violence and intimidation.
Good Riddance to that son of a bitch. You won’t see me shedding any tears for his wasted life.
US….where freedom what?? hahhahhaha. Yeah right! Now, if Daphne wants to speak about scum, there is a whole list to choose from the US.
‘And from what i’ve been told , and seen from old clips him and his party ruled through violence and intimidation. ‘
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_countries_did_the_US_invade_in_its_history
….and they wonder why the Americans are hated.
It’s disgusting how they can stand up for someone like him, the scum of the earth that he was.
[Daphne – Well, what do you expect. These people are scum of the earth too. That’s why they like him so much.]
inti f’dinja tghix jewww ?
Dik id-domanda ghandek taghmilha quddiem mera, sha!
stephanie, ghalxiex ma tmurx taqbez minn ximkien… we think caruana galizia is scum because he was a human and a person not because we r PL… u stand up for him coz he is god’s sun like you his daughter and he has passed away… imnalla ma nafx min inti ax nhabbatlek wiccek ma xi hajt jaqq
Iva, f’Malta nghixu! Issa waqfu jghajruh traditur!
He brought us freedom?
For God’s sake! Mintoff didn’t give ”freedom” to the Maltese, the English left, do you understand? LEFT! And what did that ”Traitor” as he was one, do? He went crawling to the scum of the earth Gaddafi begging for money!
Either you’re 10 years old, brainwashed or you suffer from dementia.
The sad bit is that you have a vote and you can use it freely, unlike previous elections with bullies at the polling booths intimidating and threatening voters.
Enlighten me Daphne please, all of these are the scum of the earth right?! while you sit there all high and mighty wearing a white robe??? it take’s one to know one dear… just hope nothing really bad happens to you or your precious son cause it will be the first time I laugh my ass off at some one’s death!
[Daphne – Your ignorance knows no bounds. ‘My precious son’. You don’t even know I have three. I suppose you imagine that the ‘tifel ta’ Defni’ discussions on your scum sites are all about the same one. White robe? No, actually it’s striped.]
Unlike you, I’m not a busy body so honestly no, I didn’t know you had three, more probability for you to worry about their health I guess… Not that I wish you ill, but surely I won’t shed a tear, well maybe a joyful one. I hope you’r wearing a wonder bra under that striped robe, don’t wan’t you tangling up in your breasts while walking :p thank god for ‘Defni’ !!
[Daphne – You don’t have to be a busybody to know I have three sons, Ben. I’ve had them since I began writing 23 years ago and I’ve never kept them a secret. So when your favourite sites mention sons with different names, identities and ages, and get them all confused, what do think, exactly? And when they publish photographs of a dark son and then a blond one, what do you register: il-lallu kemm tbiddel? That’s right, you don’t think. You vote Labour. Mohhkom ta’ tigiega b’xi breakdown.]
Well ‘Defni’ I believe this turned out to be my favourite site after all… I never heard of your sons simply cause I don’t follow or better, your personal life doesn’t interest me. Me Voting Labour: wrong again! I vote to whom I see fit in getting my vote. Daphne I will always defend your right to say whatever you wish, but that doesn’t mean that I have to agree with you or that I’m not entitled to insult you back when you insulted half of Malta, You have every right to do that but so can I. By all means continue I find you very entertaining!
according to your own judgment, EFA is a ‘mohh ta tigiega’ right?
“M’hemmx dubju li ħalla impatt fil-pajjiż, partikolarment wara l-gwerra. Kien personalità li ta kontribut… jiena ngħid li ‘overall’ kien kontribut pożittiv. Naturalment kellu l-element negattiv ta’ kif kien jaħdem. Però kien bniedem li kien jaf x’qiegħed jagħmel u jaf xi jrid u dak li jrid kien jagħmel minn kollox biex jilħqu,”
[Daphne – Do you know the expression ‘damn with faint praise’?]
ho common even I know that EFA respected Mintoff as an adversary!!!
i m mintoffiana but i m no scum like u said and i m from a village and m not ignorant like you say,we simply loved mintoff for all the things he did for malta.who do u think u r god himself the devil maybe imma.
What exactly did he do for Malta?
Prostitute it to Gaddafi maybe?
Yes you are all ignorant if you can’t see how Malta has improved these past 25 years!
yeap likewise :) it takes one to know anotherone my dear

Daphne, kieku ma ktibt xejn u zammejtu ghalik dan il-kliem li ghedt, tahseb li ma kienx ikun ahjar
Issa waqalek li tikteb dawn il kliem, wara mewtu?
Waqqajt ismek daphne, fuq Facebook ippetizzjonawk fuq l elfejn malti li jresquk al gustizzja minn mindu tfajt dan il blog.

R.I.P Mintoff
Ma naqbilx mal-assurdità li qalet, imma għal liem tip ta’ ġustizzja tridhom iressquha? Jaħarquha mat-tyres f’nofs il-pjazza f’San Ġwann tal-Ħġejjeġ f’Ġunju jew? Kemm qegħdin sew.
Jekk ma joghgbokx taqrax.

Allahares biss jazzarda xi hadd imiss mal-liberta` tal-internet.
clearly Daphne, you want to shock, so your name gets mentioned. It is was a known fact that you would not have been in mourning, when Mintoff passed.
For some Mintoff was the man that brought them hope when they were desperate, who gave them social services to survive since they were not born into well off families, as not everybody could get education. And for that person that wrote he wanted the catholic schools to close, no that is not what he wanted, he wanted them to still teach, but without a fee. He knew that educating everyone would be the way out of poverty and they way for Malta to flourish. And that it was an injustice that only the “rich”could get educated.
I do not like people that write swear words and that loose it while typing a response.
But to write that the islands are full of idiots is very disrespectful, to your own countrymen and women. Idiots are everywhere. And clearly you are one of them, as if you had some sense you would not have posted this article to create hate, once again!
The past is past, maybe you and your lot did not agree with his way of politics, because it interfered with your way of life negatively.But it was not directed at you, your family or other families in your class, it was directed to lift the people that needed a hand. Most of the things he did was to help Malta and its people to live a proper life where no one had to go without anymore, be it food, education etc.
I come from a labourist family. But my parents worked hard to BUY a plot of land, and build their house. they did not get free plots, as my parents always believed that if with hard work they can do it, they did not need to ask for a free plot that could go to someone really in need. So i do not come from a family of idiots, i come from a family, that thought me integrity, honesty and working hard. but most of all they thought me to be proud of where I come from. A beautiful island, that stood on its own two feet, all because of this man, Dom. Go ahead now and tell me I was brainwashed. I was not. I can know make a different decision, as i am an adult and know the history of politics. But I know that Mintoff was so proud of his country that he fought for it. Its a shame that all this mud keeps being flung on his name. And its a shame no one is fighting for our country anymore, as everything is being sold to foreigners. Just recognise the good things he did. Afterall, those times both parties had a lot to answer for, if I recall, even an amount of guns was found at the PN headquarters.
So, instead of writing about him, why dont you start writing about things that really matter, find a good cause that needs attention in Malta, and make light on it. You know a lot of people read your blog, you know with your writing you can create awareness. Find a cause, and write about it with the same passion as you did about this man and the mintoffjani. Find an injustice, and create the same hype you did with this article. And do not stop until you get a positive change, instead of wasting your time on the past. You can start by inspiring people to love their country and take care of it. Create something that is of benefit, and not something that bring the worst out of people from both sides.
Could not agree more! Prosit for your words. But with Daphne they are wasted. I have have never seen a journalist, whose articles I once recall reading with pleasure, plumb such depths.
well said, very well said, but, should we be amused that you wrote such words, cause according to DCG we’r all idiots!
[Daphne – Oh, not according to me, Ben. It’s undisputed fact. Just look at all the evidence laid out here. Not only idiots, but violent, vulgar idiots, the worst sort. You know, the kind who in Mafia mob films are called ‘tools’.]
Hoooo Daphne, most people curse you, I just thank God you exist! Now that Charlie Sheen is not doing Two and a half man any more, I found the substitute of a great (maybe your even better) comedian….
Unlike you as wanting to throw horse poo at a coffin is so classy!
Absolutely right!

Daphne, wow – and here I was, thinking how subdued your article was! You definitely hit a nerve for some people. This is the kind of hatred and vengeance that many of us had to grow up with in the 70s and 80s.
Unlike what she says, this bickering between two tribes is what kept this so far behind. That hatred and vengeance is what many nations had to grow up with in the 70’s and 80’s. Mainly by leftists. The ones one the right have been doing it from the dawn of civilization.
I am re-reading your post and reading the comments it provoked (looking for mine too, by the way…not printed yet…..damn!) So tell us …..was it worth it?
[Daphne – Yes. You idiots fall for it every time. I say half a word about your bastard idol and you come out in force like a horde of dyslexic savages with your death threats and your vulgarity and your pure and utter stupidity.]
Your blog was full of hate and it has provoked hate and vulgarity in return. In a way, you are deserving of sincere congratulations. It is not easy to have taken the decision to descend to the lowest common denominator of humanity and then wallow in the sewage there, feeding off insults, name calling and the regurgitation of bitter memory and jaundiced history, especially when you have had the benefits of a good education and enjoy what I understand to be a life not lacking in material comforts, beautiful house and all. It would be sad, of course, if you ended up speaking the same way (different words, different language, but very much the same way! Truly congrats!) and thinking the same way as the hamalli mintoffjani you cannot stomach without intending to………This is just provocation to have some sordid fun with the ripostes in your own little space right???? But seriously, and to end on a serious note……..you are repulsive beyond words. Good night hon. I have a feeling it’s been a long time since your putrid living corpse has had a cuddle…..hope that arse-whipped husband of yours is getting his elsewhere.
He was no idol of mine hon, and I never threatened you and never would. We are all being entertained here, and my guess is that the more intelligent of us – you are not in our select group, sadly – are being entertained more than others. It is mildly entertaining, after a while, I suppose, to see a once formidable journalist and columnist lose all credibility and plumb the depths, and then decide to live there. You may as well leave your house and take up residence in an Armier boathouse hon, playing the bingo. It’s what you have become.
[Daphne – There’s a man with a three 100s on his Form II report who might wish to join your select group of more intelligent people. His number is 9998 8877. Give him a ring because he seems a bit down right now.]
Daphne, some say you have ‘balls’. May I just ask you to prove this? You gave Franco’s private mobile number in a sad and puerile attempt to get at him in some warped way of yours. May you kindly publish YOUR mobile number and ANSWER it?
[Daphne – My mobile number is public and has always been: 9949 3545. If you want to waste money ringing me, go right ahead. Just bear in mind that I have a two-decade back story in dealing with cranks and obscene callers, so I’m not exactly going to be upset, impressed or intimidated.]
Thanks for obliging. But I meant your PRIVATE mobile number not the one rigged to the PM’s office and his ‘advisors’.
[Daphne – That’s my only mobile number. I’ve had it for almost 20 years.]
“I have a feeling it’s been a long time since your putrid living corpse has had a cuddle…..hope that arse-whipped husband of yours is getting his elsewhere.”
Sorry, but I just giggled there.
It’s remarkable how the most indecent of the populace are so quick to demand decency of others.
Prosett tal-kummenti kollha. Ciccio fejn sparixxa llejla?
Actually all these comments are making me sick. Well, that’s Mintoff Missier Malta for you.
It his patrimony of Vjolenza, haxi u abbuzz sponsored by those who have the right to rule.
We have him to thank for all these comments, and unfortunately Eddie Fenech Adami who gave a PC and a connection to everyone.
Baxxter, I went out to the “vigil” with candles yesterday, to pray for his soul. But on the way it occurred to me that he had no soul…so I returned at 7.00am this morning, after visiting all pubs in Paceville…
I cannot believe what you have written in your website, how can you call a person who just died bastard, I realy think you should appologise to the family and nation, look in the mirror and ask GOD for forgivness.
Why can’t you? What difference does it make? We still call Hitler a bastard and many of his faithful still believe he was a god.
Jekk ha tqabel l perit ma Hitler vera mintix tghix f dinja, ma tistax titkellem hekk fuq bniedem mejjet li gab hafna gid lej Malta, sa nka l partit nazzjonalista wera solidarjeta, ghalhekk ahna pajjiz demokratiku.
Usually I don’t look at a MIRROR when I want to pray to God but at the sky, his statue or his image, but then again maybe you have a special personal thing.
u zgur li ma tharrisx lejn l mera, ma ghandiex dubbju
Quote: “look in the mirror and ask GOD for forgivness [sic] [recte ‘forgivEness’]”
You just called Daphne “God”. And given that she has the guts to say it how it is, I think you’re not far from the truth.
I call God Jesus Christ, jekk temmen fl allat tal fertilita’ f idejk S.H
Ma lanqas irrid nemmen xi hdura,pero hawn hafna affarijiet biex tkun mistriha DAPHNE !!
20 t’Awissu 2012 – Jum il-Helsien
hmmm…. publicity stunt by an attention whore? lol..
Wow, this is so entertaining! Daphne, your responses are hilarious.
The hamallagni is quite sad though – qatt ma jinbidel.
I love Malta but I’m so glad I left. L-injoranza wisq! Kulhadd jaghmel ghageb. I mean, personally I would have kept those kind of thoughts to myself but you’re a journalist with a blog and you’re ballsy enough to speak your mind.
It’s called freedom of speech, people! Grow up. Mur gibkhom l-Amerka mela kemm tidbaqbqu. Live and let live! RIP Mintoff
X’ l-Amerka int lol… imut il-priministru hemm lanqas hadd ma jaghti kaz… ahseb u ara jitbaqqbqu!! Dawn il-kummidji u tghijjir. Only in Malta.
I see you have a lot of these Christian proletariat assholes who still worship Mintoff and follow your blog.
[Daphne – They don’t follow my blog. They’ve never read anything I’ve written and they haven’t a clue who I am. One of them actually thought I am a member of parliament. They just come in through Facebook links.]
Surely they never had it so good under his totalitarian and oppressive rule. Who knows how eager they are awaiting Joseph to oblige in a similar fashion.
Has no one cottoned on to the fact that she’s trolling you? In a reasonably blatant and unsophisticated way too.
C’mon lads… You can’t all be that stupid and not realize she’s playing you all like a fiddle for ratings and click counts?
As for Dom, never was a fan of the man when he was alive, but politics sure were interesting when he was.
And Daph, the quality HAS been slipping of late…
[Daphne – Oh, I’m not doing it for ratings and click counts. I’m doing it because the best way to whip a mask off people is to talk them into doing it themselves. I don’t need Mintoff for page views. He’s transient.]
Believe me, she doesn’t need Mintoff’s death to bring up the site’s ratings. People read the blog for its great information value, superb journalism and of course, a good laugh.
Great article and even better comments. Keep the insults coming, get them off your chests.
However, I would like to read more reminiscences (wait, that’s too difficult for these dim-wits), I mean more personal memories of Mintoff. Should be interesting.

The “traitor” is dead – may God forgive his treachery
I ve lived through the eighties myself, and I have my positive and negative opinion on that era.
You lived through hell most of your life and there you will burn for Eternity.
Repent or burn at the stakes!
Kellu bzonn jidirlek jahasra ha jwerwrek
You are the fuckin anti Christ!! Thanks to Dom mintoff we have what we do, if I were you I’d watch what I say cos what goes around comes around bitch.
Oh! how very original
Daphne, nawguralek ghomor bizzejed li tara il ulidek imutu fidejk u garrab ftit imrar li int tixtiq il haddiehor u il kull min jahsiba bhalek.
Again – nobody condemns this Attard for writing this? Not one?
Hypocrites!
Jien ghaddejt min li qed issemmi Attard, ghaliex f St.luke’s qatluli lil ohti it-tobba studenti ul il pakistani, ghaliex Mintoff ma ridx ihallas lit-tobba maltin.
@ Daphne I am not yet sure what runs through your disturbed mind/head. Whether you have any conscience, love, respect, any sort of human feeling towards anybody or anything! Sometimes I wonder whether you have received any yourself throughout your life!
I simply see you as a total psychopath who is struggling to show the world the hatered you have for the ones around you simply because you have not yet fullfilled your dreams or achieved what you have long waited for.
I would be ashamaed of myself, in these days, in such a civilised community, to write such aricles. Having said that I am not ashamed to openly express my opinion agianst you (or anyone who supports you)! I hope that sometime you realise that the world will definetley be a better place, certainly not through the passing away of a political leader (whoever he may be)! It will be a better place if people like you never existed or were not given the right to utter any word, betterso write down whatever goes through their sick minds!
Hope God has mercy on your soul when the day comes – unlike most people who read your blogs!
And finally, may Dom Mintoff rest in peace – at the end of the day, good or bad, he was a human being like the rest of us and throughout his life he struggled to give the working class a better life! So sorry that, unfrotunately, I can see no struggle from your side for anyone in Malta to get a better chance of life!
Joseph – EX PN supporter.

Calling Daphne a bitch you would be praising Daphne.
A bitch gives some pleasure or try to gives some at least.
I dont’ think pleasure will ever come from daphne.
Infact i pity your husband.

You are free to right whatever you want that is what you advocate right freedom of expression. So here is my 6p worth of freedom. I fully agree wih you on one thing MALTA would have been a totally different place without him. Definitely it would have been the first Fundumentalist Cathlic state in the world preachinG christianity and assistance to the poor whit the people straving to death in the streets. U hallina ha nghixu u tghallem irrispetta lil ta madwarek.
Just turn on the TV on his funeral and you will figure out how utterly and blatantly wrong you are.

You shot JFK
WOW. Daphne I don’t care much for politics, and maybe I should. But when I heard of this article I just had to come and read it. I must say, I found you to be rather….help me out here, you’re the expert….what’s the opposite of classy?
You’ve expressed your hatred for Mintoff in such a way that makes you look no better than him with all the horrible things he did. You hate him for his alleged cruelty towards the people, and people hate you for your cruelty too. The way I see it, you’re on the same level as him hun, just not ruling a country, and not influencing people much except for correcting their grammar here and there in response to their feedback. Feel free to correct mine too, if it makes you feel better about yourself.
The man just died for chrissake. People in mourning. Whether you agree to their mourning or not, have some respect. It doesn’t take much.

Gvernijiet Nazzjonalisti stess li setaw jigvernaw minn 1987 l-hawn ghax wara l-kontroversja tan-1981 Mimtoff stess hass il htiega li tinbiddel il-kostutzjoni ta’ pajjizna biex vera jkun jista jitla l-Gvern li maggioranza tal-Poplu. Kieku kellu il- kilba ghal poter li jkun dittatur bhal ma kien Gaddafi seta halla kollox kif kien u jibqa jigverna bis- siggijiet ghall- ghomru.
Ma irridx naqa fil-baxx u nghajrek ghax ma irriedx ikun ta’ l-istess livell tieghak li l-unika skop ta’ hajti tkun in-nibedgha lejn min ma’ ghandux l-istess ideali tieghi.
Ha’ nispicca billi nsaqsik mistoqsija li forsi tohloq naqa tbissima ghal min jaqra. Ghandek din in-nibedgha lejn Mimtoff u l-Laburisti ghax meta kont tifla ma’ stajtx tiehu c-cikkulatta li ridt ?
Jekk iva, m’hemm x’taghmel twelidt f’ era zbaljata, forsi li kieku twelidt bejn l-ewwel u t-tieni gwerra dinjija kont tahsiba naqa differenti. Ma nafx fejn kont tispicca li kieku ktibt artiklu bhal fuq xi gvernatur Ingliz..
Stieh fil-paci Perit u thabillx rasek Alla jaf kemm ghamilt gid u zgur haffirlek xi nuqqasijiet li stajt ghamilt.
And so say all of us.
Ryan B, Mintoff mhux ‘xi nuqqasijiet’ ghamel, imma hajja infern lil hafna u hafna nies.
Mintoff will always be remembered by my family, as his policies were responsible for the death of my dearest and most loving mother at the age of 45.
May he rot in hell.

The above is a short sample of Mintoff’s legacy to the nation, where half the country thrives on class hatred, ‘lanzit’ and ‘hamallagni’. Grazzi Mintoff – we will never forget you

And rest asured that she is going to pay for her heartless words above… thrust me !!!
You said one thing right,
Grazzi Perit Mintoff – – AHNA MHU SER NINSUK QATT
Strieh fis sliem !!!
You leave such disgusting comments only because you have nothing better to say and you just want to seek some attention. I have never previously seen any positive comments on your blog only ones that try to put people to shame ..You should never say you’re Maltese you bring shame to all of us.. and being the ugly creature you are i’d suggest hiding yourself instead of trying to bring out all defects in normal people around you… at least all the others have a heart, YOU don’t ;)
I’ll give you this……… you’ve got balls.
I hope we will celebrate soon your death, you mother fucking ugly bitch. Ilek ma tifa xi platt lir-ragel?
I hope you rot in hell and hope you and your family is cursed you slut.
I am not going to comment on the passing away of Dom Mintoff, it would be hypocritical of me, but Daphne, how can you allow such vulgar comments on your blog.They are downright indecent. People have a right to agree or disagree with you, but they have no right to stoop so low to express themselves. I leave God to judge Mintoff.
Maria, ghax qed titkaza bir-risposti u ma tkazajtx bil-heading vili li poggiet Daphne?
Hi Daphne,
qatt harist fil-mera int?!!!! Li tikteb b’dil-mibeghda kollha u tipprovoka lin-nies b’dan il-mod huwa tal-misthija. Kont perswaz li inti mara bla qalb, hadra u vjolenti; ir-ragel tieghek wiehed li daq il-hdura u l-iskizofrenija ta mohhok. Mintoff kien dak il-bniedem li lill-klassi l-baxxa gabha fuq saqajha. Insaqsik is-servizzi socjali li dahhal Mintoff inti rrifjutajthom ghax dahhalhom hu, jew dejjem ftaht idejk ghalihom? F’dawn il-25 sena ta gvern nazzjonalista il-bonus ghola, s-sick leave zdied? Il-leave flok zdied naqas. Kull kumpanija li holoq Mintoff biex tkun taghna l-Maltin, il-gvern tieghek bieghha biex ilaqqat ftit tal-flus. Barra minn hekk il-gvern tieghek dejjem ivvota kontra kull tip ta’ beneficcji ghaz-zghir. Hag’ohra kieku ma kienx Mintoff u haseb fikom in-nisa int lanqas vot ma kienu jtuk.
Nammetti wkoll li Mintoff kellu l-hazin tieghu imma min m’ghandux?!!! Fl-ahhar snin tilef il-kontroll tal-klikka, ta’ shabu u tal-partit bhal ma fl-ahhar mill-ahhar tilfu l-leader tal-partit tieghek ghax hlief korruzzjoni u moqzizijiet mhux qed johorgu fil-berah.
U nixtieq nghid lil dawk li qalu li mitulhom xi qraba taghhom minhabba l-istat hazin tal-isptar fi zmien Mintoff; jien missieri miet Mater Dei u l-professur tieghu Mr Zammit ma setax jikkurah fl-isptar state of the art li niftahru bih ghax ma geddewlux il-kuntratt.
Grazzi ja sahhara tal-bidnija li tajtni c-cans nesprimi l-hsibijiet tieghu u tinsiex li l-hajja qisha rota llum jien u ghada int. Qatt m’ghandek tiehu gost bid-deni ta’ haddiehor.
Tislijiet
Mark, il-hazin ta’ Mintoff ma bediex lejn l-ahhar snin meta “tilef il-kontroll tal-klikka”. Beda hafna u hafna snin qabel. Zmien twil ilu xandar mal-erbat irjieh li Boffa wettaq incest meta raqad ma’ bintu stess; gidba sfaccata naturalment. Jien bniedem hekk viljakk insejjahlu. U int?
Qed nithassrek Daphne. Ara veru li ma jigri xejn tajjeb f’hajjtek biex qadt tistenna lil Perit imut biex tohrog ticcelebra! Tidher li ma tistax thares fil mera ghax kieku tista ma tohrogx dil hdura min halqek. Mintoff ghamel hwejjeg kbar ghal Malta u qatt mhu ser ikun minsi min nies f’sensihom. Isthi Daphne.
Strieh fis sliem Perit. Kondoljanzi lill familjari tieghu
Strieh u serrah
Wow! It seems that the “truth” also has set free an avalanche of venom and hate.
It seems that the PL now have an electoral situation on their hands (which potential has always been there, but now there has been an historical moment for its expression): if the PL leaders and their followers accentuate their continuing idolatry with the same momument of emotion evident here, the rational voter will have only one choice.
Best wishes on your keeping up with the evidently record traffic to your blog. Meanwhile, the Mintoff legacy continues.
DCG = Paljazza tal pajjiz…. Ma hemmx bzonn tkun laburist jew nazzjonalist biex tikundana kliemek u ghemijlek lejn human iehor !. Tahseb li int xi persuna pura u bxi donni ??

Paljazza
Well, the best thing about Mintoff’s passing is that you MIGHT stop flapping your gums about him every 2 bloody seconds. Maybe, you can finally put that broken record back in its moldy sleeve and rattle on about something else apart from your incessant hatred (or love) for Dr. Mintoff. May he (and our ears) finally rest in peace.
I can’t believe that you are an intellectual and that someone published your article. Barbarian attitude. Hope you don’t call yourself decent!!!!!
Politically I am deep a right side person but I haven’t came across with so much rudeness.
Now I understand why you are so hated on this island.
By the way your Catholic spirit, your faith in God doesn’t tell you not be so rude when it comes to people?
Hope you will be out of the nationalist Party’s election campaign as you will be for them what Sant was for the Labor.
If after this horrible article and attitude someone will still publish you, shame on all the intellectuals of this island.
I’ll spin around the world.
[Daphne – ‘I can’t believe that you are an intellectual and that someone published your article’. Do you know what a blog is, or are you only here through a Facebook link?]
Qatta ghejjurin dak li naf! Hadt qatt m’hu se jkun hawn bhal Perit Mintoff. Man of the Century! Kieku mhux bis- sahha tieghu inbaghtu bl-ghaks, taht l- Inglizi ghadna sal- lum il- Gurnata! Fej qatt kont tista tersaq lejn il-Marsa! Il- Marsa tal- Inglizi kullhadd kien isibha!

[Daphne – Shazel? Lovely name. Yuor parents must have got it off a packet of nuts.]
*Your – Daphne, hope you had a happy birthday indeed!
‘Hadt qatt m’hu se jkun hawn bhal Perit Mintoff’. Naqbel mieghek, Shazel. Allahares jerga’ jkun hawn!
‘helsin minn kull hakma’. Mhux ezattament, Shazel. Helsien minn hakma, biex twikkejna b’hakma arroganti daqsha! Jien ma narax differenza bejn hakma arroganti barranija, u hakma arroganti Maltija. Sorry.
‘kien bniedem mahbub minn kullhadd’. Ejjew nghidu li kien bniedem li ghamel hafna gid, u daqstant iehor ghamel deni.

you need 2c a psychiatrist.surely such hatred must come from an unhappy childhood.you must have been abused sometime in your lifetime.I haven’t meet any person with such hatred.I wish to meet you personally to teach you some of Christ teaching.I hope u don’t consider yourself a christian!!!!!!
In 1983, I was in my early thirties and looking forward to a life and future in Malta.
Life in Malta was full of hatred, lack of freedom, corruption, not to mention full control on imports and all business. That was Dom Mintoff’s Malta and so together with a young family, I migrated to Australia.
Dom Mintoff, me and my family will always be indebted to you. Life has never been so good. Thank you, Mintoff.
And reading from the comments the ”Mintoffian encouraged hatred and divisiveness” is still abundant in Malta.
Dom Mintoff your instilled “hatred and divisiveness” has outlived you.
Spot on.
fuck you joe falzon
Malta tistrieh la nehilsu minnek aaa QAHBA, ma tantx fadallu hajja twila dal- Blog serrah mohhok ja Sahhara indannata… Ziebel kont u ziebel bqajt.
A few points I’d like to share:
1. I am 25 years old, and therefore I didn’t live under his thumb, so I might not know exactly what transpired during the Mintoffian times. My parents did however, and don’t think too highly of him either.
2. I know that just because someone (or his supporters, devotees, etc) are vulgar and wish death left, right, and centre, that doesn’t mean you should, as you’d be lowering yourself to their level and show lack of self-discipline.
3. Am I glad he’s dead? Well to be frank I never cared for him in the first place, so while I may not go “Glory, Glory” like you do in utter bad taste, I’m not going to flood forums, blogs, facebook with images of the ‘saint’ and go “RIP, RIP, OH GOD RIP TAKE ME WITH YOU”.
In conclusion: It’s a human life that has ended. Respect it for what it is.
Most of the published comments really expose Mintoff’s legacy. May the country starts to find closure (possibly after the other incompetent idiot ‘Zero’ joins his mentor?)
On a different note, Happy Birthday Daphne!
I’ve always respected both parties and to be perfectly honest, I’ve never been biased on neither, They all had some tremendously talented people which in some point or other in history have provided some good deed,however, I was never into Mintoff’s politics or idealism as I had not lived in those times, therefore , I can’t judge. As much as I support our freedom’s and posts like this prove that we are a free country without the need of being prosecuted for practicing our freedoms and sadly, as much as I’d appreciate someone who practices freedom of speech in such situations, regarding a conspiracy or a similar event which took place in a nation’s history, I resent the purpose of this post, the way I see it, it’s a direct insult to a dead man, whatever he has done, his sins are either forgiven or being paid for now, there is no reason to smite those mourning him more-so than the pain they are feeling about his rite towards wherever he is going. I am not angry but I am very disappointed because I disprove of disrespect, you have every right to post things like this, in fact most of your posts actually make sense, but in this case, posting against a man which can’t fight your argument himself is null and therefore a void show of interpretation of his character, Very disappointed indeed.
Jien mhux se nkun pastaz bhalek, ghalkemm inti tippretendiha li int wahda mill-puliti tal-high society fir-risposti tieghek urejt kemm int hamalla bhalna l-laburiti!!. Haga wahda nghidlek, meta xi darba inti taghmel xi haga ghal pajjizna bhalma ghamel Mintoff u anke biex inkun ghidt kollox il-politici tal-PN, tkellem. Ghallinqas dawk jistghu jigu mfakkra ghal xi haga li ghamlu ghal-pajjiz, inti ha jiftakruk ghal….eh ghal XEJN!!!
P.. tinsiex tmur titqarben il-Hadd.
Daphne, interesting to note that your blog is more followed by Labourites than Nationalists….
I will still pray for his soul and may he Rest in Peace….
May you forever Rot in Hell You Bitch !
Malta is a better place without Mintoff.
Unfortunately, he did so much damage to the social structure and mentality in our country that the repercussions will be felt for a long time – as evidenced by the slew of comments posted above by people who are not only functionally illiterate, but display a total disregard for the concept of freedom of speech and association.
You can threaten Daphne and the rest of us all you like, but you won’t stop us from saying what we think – that Mintoff was a monster, just like all other tin-pot dictators which the human race has been saddled with from day one.
monster your uknown father you bastard
Ghax ma tmurx tiehdu f ghox kemm ghandek; la tmut int nigi inbul fuq il-qabar tieghek. Inti bid dwejjaq l ghandek zgur li qatt mhu ha ssib il paci. nahseb int sejra il-genna.
On both sides hatred has ruled, bitterness is supreme and we are the lesser mortals. Many like me did not agree with Mintoff’s govenance, and we did suffer because of this. But inspite of all this, I can assure you that we daily prayed earnestly, especially at the Eucharist, that in His Infinite Love and Mercy , Jesus would personally assist Dom Mintoff before entering eternity. We have all sinned before God, no exception. Daphne, you are bitter because you have been hurt but you are not the only one, and if you decide to forgive, you will be not only a greater woman, but a serene soul. Forgiveness is a decision, not an emotion and will give you peace. The greatest battle to win is to win over your will.
Forgiveness.
Well he will always be remembered and will get a state funeral, you however will be forgotten with the passages of time.
Now do everyone a favour and stick to taste magazine.
Happy birthday Daphne.
(Please mark the one above using same nick as not ‘me’.)
Ikolli nghid li l-artiklu xxukjani. Imma minn naha l-ohra ma nistax nghid li mhux artiklu onest. Kull wiehed minnha ghandu ghazla kif jghix hajtu…u dik l-ghazla..li hi taghna biss se tirrifletti f’dak li jahsbu n-nies fuqek wara mewtek.
jien perswaz li la mmut jien se jkun hemm min jiddispjacih u se jkun hemm ukol min se jghid…ghall erwieh…
Mintoff ghamel ghazliet li affettwaw lili u lilek..int min int. L-istorja turi li hafna minn dawk id-decizjoniet kienu hziena. U Dan Fatt
Dan il-kliem ta hawn fuq jahsbuh hafna nies izda bi prudenza, imma anke minhabba biza, ma jghiduhx. Ghax is-success principali ta MIntoff kien dak li zera il biza fil-poplu.
Whoever has a problem with this article, why are you reading it in the first place?
Did you ever expect Daphne to write something in favour of Mintoff? i never did. The first thing I did when I got to know that Mintoff died was to check this blog to find someone with the same sense of humour.
I do not wish him to rot in hell, that decision is purely God’s to make.
I’ll end my comment by quoting Lady Jane Johnson: “Every politician should have been born an orphan and remain a bachelor.”
Most of the people who commented here claim to be so religious with cries of god and forgiveness and mourning and so on…yet…they turn to public swearing… What is your god going to say about YOU?
Nibda nidirlek ha sahhara :(
Why the sad face?
I admire you really……..If i had the guts I would have written the same article myself :) Well done
FOX INNAZZJONALISTI KOLLHA ara vera inthom kollha bla qalb
Oh how I miss those labour thugs who would break into and smash all those PN clubs again and again and again. Was it 19 times that the Mintoffian thugs broke into the Floriana club?!
Perhaps someone should touch upon these distressing moments of intollerance of the Mintoff regime!
We’re off to see the wizard
Mid-dehra ghandek qalbek fin u delikat, fox!
Daphne, Dont you think its time to stop making money out of your controversial policy. I heard that you had mentioned me in an article can you repeat it to me directly please?
I do not hate you, I tolerate you….as a Christian should be.
As to our Dear Dom..we have a right to grieve without you spreading out all this hate.
Does your children see these writhings?? Remember violence breeds violence. Hatred breeds hatred.
Hekk hu, Nadya, ‘violence breeds violence. Hatred breeds hatred’. Il-Perit qed jahsad dak li zera’.
Bang on, madam. And my guess is that this hatred is the direct result of the hatred Mintoff had for us.
My English may not be perfect, my Maltese a tad less, but reading all the above (and below) I have a pretty good idea where all the hate and foul language is coming from.
Having an opinion on a man who had personally caused many individuals to go through hell simply because they did not agree with his excesses and abuse of power, is, after all an individual’s right.
Now, mark my words, this coming Saturday, he will be eulogized as if he were a saint.
It is this hypocrisy which is routinely practiced here and everywhere else which people in the know hate and causes their stomachs to churn and to the point of throwing up.
The Archbishop had better measure his words since One TV guru, Illum, l-orizzont and Malta Today will be out in full analysis of his eulogy.
Mintoff never reconciled with his fellow citizens but we hope that he reconciled with his Maker before he was called.
You have sent out a big hook today and boy how everyone has bitten. Well done. Congratulations.
The reality is that your comments put you in the same league as those who you hate and despsie so much. You have fallen to the depths of depravity.
Methinks you have done it just for fun – which makes it worse. Your arguments about sociopaths, hamalli, uneducated, crass, naff, scum of the earth, vulgarity, pure and utter stupidity etc etc etc can now be clearly directed towards you.
Today you have just provided all of the evidence required for this. Your infamy and gall is unmatched – you must laughing your head off. This “fun” I note will most likely continue to contribute towards your income stream as I suspect there may be two ads on this website in the coming weeks and months.
[Daphne – Yes, Raphael, we’ve been here before. I remember, don’t worry.]
Who’s the other person with Mintoff in the picture?

You should respect Mintoff as if it wasn’t for him, you couldn’t open your stupid blog.
Idiot. Mintoff wanted to ban computers because he thought some clerks would lose their jobs. He did his best to prevent computers and free speech.
If Mintoff was born a few years earlier he’d have banned cars because horse-buggy whip-makers would be out of a job.
That was the height of his economic policy.
Are u serious? Were u even around in he 80s?

‘kont int li mexxejt il haddiem ghad dinjita li jixraqlu’. Nofs verita, li hi aghar minn gidba.
Judging by a lot of the comments left here, his wonderful legacy is abundantly clear.
I must say, this is very amusing. As much as I find it wrong to talk about dead people, I still admire you for your guts. We need more people like you, honestly.
Guys, get over it. This is a free country. If you have issues, seek help yourself.
Hi
Why do you want to be hated. If you felt that way – good – but keep it to yourself. Respect goes to Mintoff and his loyals as they are beings just like you are. Come on Daphne your one of the best pens around. Use it positively
RIP DM
Three quarters of the people commenting here have no clue what Daphne has written, considering their appalling use of the English language and are merely relying on word of mouth.
For all the people bashing Daphne, I see nothing wrong with what she wrote as it is the truth, but even if it wasn’t, I am sure you were not the first ones in line to stand up for other people (read Nazzjonalisti) who were treated like dirt during Mintoff years and given a beating (or two).
I’m sure you didn’t as most of you still actually applaud these things so do away with the two weights to measures thing and shut up.
Mintoff was no saint.
All those using foul, vulgar language, thank you for showing us your true colours. It is actually quite possible to make your point using perfectly good English/Maltese – but no I forgot, inthom mhux hekk imdorrijin.
Incredible but so true, to actually feel overwhelmed to celebrate someone’s death, is bizarre.
But hell yes…
The Dark Lord has succumbed…FINALLY
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAPHNE!
god have mercy.
Jekk kulħadd se jtiha xebgħa Joseph ħa jsib il-kaxxa ta’ Malta mimlija, bis-€60 li kulħadd se jħallas. Ser tiġi, xebgħa ntaxxata.
I’m Nationalist, and yet I think you’re being the biggest bitch ever to set her feet on this earth. Yes maybe he wasn’t the most decent man, but still, why say these things once he is dead? Go say them to his face fine, but don’t defile a person’s name once they are dead. One day you’ll be going to hell and people will be saying this crap against you. Would you like that?
She’d be dead…. why would she give a shit…lol.
Nationalist,my arse
‘Yes maybe he wasn’t the most decent man’. Kliem ta’ min ma batiex verament taht ir-Regim Mintoffjan.
Good on you, Daphne. Show the Mintoffjani for what they are. And for what they will be after 2013.
Mintoff thrived on hatred and division, not on the unity of the nation.
This hatred has resurfaced in recent years, as Joseph Muscat started to bring back the Mintoffjani to the front, undoing the attempts made by Alfred Sant to disassociate the party from those elements.
By the way, has Super One asked Alfred Sant for his reaction to Mintoff’s death as yet?
it seems that swearing is all they can do. Wow. and telling you they will beat you up etc.
Just shows how the Labour mentality will never change. Do or say something they don’t like and it’s back to the only thing they know: violence and threats and abuse.
Anyway, Daphne, today ( I have followed your writing for years), you have not failed to show that you will say what you please and for me that is just great. If they don’t bloody like it, they don’t bloody read it.
Mara bil-bajd (ghax hekk jifhmu zgur).
Another thing, since when do people who die suddenly become saints? I can’t stand this crap.
Will all you people please stop worrying about Mintoff. He doesn’t and never needed you people to defend him. And he held you in contempt,.
I’m sure he’s having his last laugh in good company at the moment, knowing that even after he’s dead he has managed to divide Malta and show the true face of Labour – Violent and ignorant. Just like he liked them, so he could rule as he pleased.
jekk ma tridx tisma il kliem baxx taqrahx ja libaaaaaaaa li int foxx kemm ghandek ja pufta kollok
A reminder of what Mintof did for the country. Just in case you forgot.

Are all Mintoffjani this charming?
How many times can one misspell HATRED and MISERABLE in the same post? And who still believes in Satan “with a fork”? My – free education really paid off
Jiddispjacini biss nara nies jitbaqbqu fuq dak li tghid Daphne. Ghadkom ma drajtuiex? It’s the only thing she knows how to do…. Stir shit and create controversy in order to get attention, and the more attention she gets the more satisfied she is. Pure Indifference is exactly what she deserves. Let her choke quietly in her own raged blood.

Dear people. Please ban this blog once and for all. This witch is evil and doesnt deserve to breath!! She is ugly and depressed with her life what can you expect out of her??? She is expressing her childhood memories in this blog on other individuals because she was bullied at school FOR SURE because she is ugly!!! Now let her celebrate and drink champagne and i hope RCC will pay you a good don perignion!! I will not wish you the same hate you express to every one but contrary to that I will finish my comment like you never imagine to finish it. PEACE & LOVE
‘I will not wish you the same hate you express to every one’. You already did!
Tista tieqaf Daphne, ghax hsara kbira qed taghmel lil PN. Jekk ser tibqa sejra hekk ser tkompli tgerrex aktar Nazzjonalisti mill-partit. Kun aktar prudenti jekk taf fejn toqghod il-prudenza u gib rispett lil-proxxmu tieghek. Jekk il-partit taghna, il-Partit Nazzjonalista mhux ser jikkundanna lil din il-mara fil-miftuh, ghalija il-Partit taghna huwa ippokrita.
Daphne, the vast majority of the nation including the more sober Labour supporters agree with your assessment of this man’s horrendous politics and the misery he caused to most of us during his premiership.
He destroyed lives and nurtured class hatred which still abounds even today.
Sadly yes, he can be likened to other despots such as Hitler and Mussolini e bella compania.
Thank you Daphne for your gutsy reporting, your objectivity and for always telling it like it is.
As to the idiots above, apart from the fact that it’s patently obvious that many of the vile comments come from the same source, did anyone really expect anything different ? Plus ca change, plus c’est la meme chose.
hey pipps idiot ghax i fucked your mother
[Daphne – You’ve posted rather a lot of comments in a similar vein. I would say that xHamster is getting to you. Try watching the BBC instead.]
Wow! Hats off to the Labourites! I must admit that Daphne might have been some what inappropriate, however she was never rude.
Not only have most of you posted rude comments but you have also resorted to being vulgar and seemingly uneducated.
Mintoff might have increased Malta’s wealth, but he was also a tyrant who forced the hand of many.
For those of you who wish to grieve this day – go ahead and do so, but do not judge those who wish to remember this day for different reasons.
Hi Daphne,
I replied to your statement about me in your notebook.
I do not have to repeat it here.
A person just died and you cant write about him in that way..whoever he was.
If you are a Christian, you should leave certain things out of your blog.
Do not try to make money out of controversies..we have enough of them on this island.
You are always mentioning me..even in Dr. Karmenu Bonnici’s time. I am just a miserable woman.
One thing I would like to tell you again.
Do remember that hatred breeds hatred and you have children who I am sure see what you are writing.
When you are not here , who is going to defend them if in the near future they might encounter difficulties.
I will end up by telling you,
Dear Dom May you Rest In Peace ..yes and I cried for him.
Like I cried For Mrs. Fenech Adami. You cannot keep away people from this. Espescially when those who mourn are mourning great persons. You cannot take that away from the.
Nadya
Fl-ahhar wasal il-vera Helsien ghal kull min baghta taht dak il-barbaru dittatur li aktar ghamel hsara milli gid!
Daphne, prosit ghax ilqatt il-musmar fuq rasu, kompli ikteb dwar il-verita’ tal-fatti, kien dittatur u kisser hafna familji Maltin u ghamel hafna vendikazzjonijiet, fosthom mal-familja tieghi.
Missek tisthi tikteb dan il-kliem. Vera mara bla qalb. Hares wahda sew fil-mera forsi tinduna x’qed taghmel u x’qed tghid.
YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF!
Nixtieqek tirrakkontalna ftit x’ghamel lilek u l’familtek biex tistmerru daqshekk : jekk ha thallina fid-dlam stmerrijja fuqhekk innifsek qieghda ggib ….
Daphne
I usually see – but do not write – today is an exception.
You think you own a lot. You think by deliberate hurtful comments such as this, you gain attention. AND indeed you do. However, it is very sad, so sad to see that this is the only way you can (and do) get attraction. It would be better off, if you can do something good for a change. Oh, sorry – you don’t know what Good is. It’s not in your character. I am sorry for you. What a pity. I hope Relatives of the deceased do not give you much attention.
(Not best) Regards
Joseph
Mur hudu foxx kemm andek ta balla imgidma. Minn qalaha minn sorma il malta. Mux mintoff. Minn gab l airport, it tarzna, is servizzi socjali, etc. Mux hu. Tidher li ma tafx xienti tejd!

Dear Daphne, I understand your hate, frustration and anger but they will lead you to nowhere.
This is the ugliest piece of crap I ever read in my career…
it is not only about Don Mintoff but is more about your personality. if these are your daily thoughts I just can’t imagine how dark your dreams are.
Help is what you need!
Ms CG,
Here’s what I like about you: you understand the typical Laburist so well, and you can truly push his or her buttons.
Ghax dawn il-progressivi u moderati titfghalhom il-lixka li tikxef x’inhuma vera u jidhlu ghaliha bhal gemgha imzazen.
What I really love about their reactions is that they truly miss the irony and contradiction.
They accuse you of being full of hatred, in between the ja ******, mur hudu *******, li ma kontx ******.
[Daphne – They say and write ‘aaaa’ not ‘ja’. You have to get the terminology right.]
Man, aren’t these people a social psychologist’s wet dream.
mela i write ja liba tal kukkudrili ja mara kerha
[Daphne – Kemm jiffaxxinakom il-liba, God bless. Mohhkom biss fih.]
I augur that you, Daphne, continue to live as long as your destiny precludes. In the meantime I thank the same destiny that permitted us Maltese to be led by the greatest politician, as yet, that these islands have seen. Thanks to Dom Mintoff, today we can take for granted the social benefits that we now have. The same social benefits that you can rely upon should destiny decide that your presence in this world is worth the while. Destiny, alas, is not me. Otherwise you would have been obliterated already.
P.S. make up your mind…. Either the saints go marching out (in heaven) or else may he rot in hell. Diametrically opposed!
Seriously Daphne? Seriously?
I’ve always thought all the hate you got was from hardline PL brainwashed plebeians.
Today I realise they’re right. That’s the last time I read this piece of shit.
K
Dear Daphne
There is journalism and there is rhetoric propaganda. Unfortunately you often venture too close to the latter. Still every man and woman has a right to his opinion and I believe the days where people can be swayed blindfolded by the agendas of people like yourself are gradually coming to an end.
I definitely don’t agree with many things Don Mintoff has done most notably the allowing of waves violence that gripped Malta at one point. This, in my opinion, is the major reason the present administration has remained in power for so long. However diversifying an economy that was crippled by the absence of any developments from our previous colonialists is no mean feat. The separation of duties from church and state has proven to be the right path irrespective of one’s religious beliefs. Fantasying a utopia under an alternative past leadership is a bad choice of time management.
I most certainly didn’t expect you to come out sobbing tears of sorrow but your words are akin to spitting on a man’s grave. This I find disturbing even by somebody of such despicable character. Any decent human being would agree to disagree and let bygones be bygones. If your motivation is driven by sensationalism and a move to further prop-up a Nationalist administration plagued by cancer, I’m afraid your article has backfired.
I just wonder what will happen the day you pass away.
Utter rubbish.
It’s in order and necessary to disrupt the current bullshit.
He never sought to minimise the iconography built around him, leaving half the population yearning for a clone.
Someone obliged.
Finally – an opinion about the old bastard which I agree with! Thanks Daph!
I would only like to say one thing about this excuse for a sad creature who spits bile on bandwidth. I would be VERY surprised were she to still be in a position to colour this bandwidth and some other excuse as ‘newsprint’ when her backers and protectors lose their grip on power.
[Daphne – Exactly what are you saying here, Drattax? That you will be voting for a government in the hope that it does to me what China did to Ai Wei Wei? Are you mad, or just another effing unbelievably stupid Labour voter? Life outside China is wasted on people like you. What protectors? You don’t need protectors to write your opinions on the internet, though I’ll admit that some people probably think I need the police right now, but to protect me from lunatics like all those commenting here. And you don’t need backers to run a blog. That’s the whole point.]
That’s it, you got the point. I just hope that you don’t get the ‘butterflies-in-your-stomach’ feeling waiting for that day. I was a Nationalist voter but I will not waste my vote to prolong immunity to low-life creatures like you.
Socialism is sharing. See you in hell Ms.Daphne.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
Winston Churchill
Socialism is indeed sharing – the equal sharing of misery.

Happy birthday, Daphne!
[Daphne – Thanks, Charles. It’s actually on Sunday, but what’s a day here and there.]
What a BITCH !!!!
IF MINTOFF WAS BAD AND RUDE HOW CAN YOU DESCRIBE YOURSELF?
[Daphne – As somebody who feels that a dead weight has been lifted off Malta at last, and who is currently very happy indeed.]
Huwa dritt ta kull Malti li jesprimi l opinjoni tieghu imma jidirlek li qed taghmel sew imbilli toffendi bniedem li ghadu kif halla id- dinja…Jekk ghandek daqshekk mibgheda lejh zomm il kummenti ghalik u mhux tahseb li ha tidher iktar qawwija imbilli turi il hdura tieghek meta filfatt qed twaqqa lilek inifsek, il pajjizek, u il partit tieghek li (p.s. tant tiftahar bih) iktar fil baxx…ma tantx nistghu nghidu li qedin f sitwazzjoni li jista jaqa iktar fil baxx min issa.
DCG – Your arrogance, obnoxiousness, and disrespect knows no limits – you can never be regarded as a person or a respected blogger – you are literally doing character assassination to yourself.
[Daphne – Gosh, Paul Smith. I love your design work.]
Thanks but I hate your stupidity
Tghid il-bokkla ta’ Mintoff mil-collections ta’ Paul Smith kienet?
Tridiex ta qaddisa int! Mara hadra daqsekk m’hawnx u x xitan ghandu post riservat hdejh ghalik diga. Missek tisthi
OMG this is truly funny. Daphne is only saying what half of Malta is thinking.
Naghti l-kondoljanzi lil familja tal-Mintoff! Niskuza ruhi al dan iz-zibel li qed kitbet dan l-artiklu li bih qed ixerred il-mibeghda!! Qed twaqqa lil partit taghna az zufjett! Hasra li fdan il-partit ad awn min jaccettak! Annimal ukol tithassru ahseb u ara bniedem taqbel u ma taqbilx mieghu!
Il-Bniedem (ir-ragel) jirraprezenta l-idealismu tieghu. Ma tistax thobb il-persuna fil waqt li tistmerr il-pulitka tieghu.
Lill Mintoff. bhala proxxmu, ma jobghodu hadd, imma Mintoff, li l-pulitka tieghu ferdet u farrket pajjiz, wiehed irid ikun mignun biex ihaddan.
Mintoff l-alla tal-Laburisti issa mar in-naha l-ohra u halla Malta maqsuma w mgharrqa f’bahar ta mibgheda li z-zerrijgha taghha zergha hu stess.
Iz-zmien itaffi, imma z-zmien ma jnessijx. Alla biss jista jahfirlu ghall li ghamel.
Cin Cin , let’s celebrate and many happy returns of the day to you, dear Daphne. You are an inspiration to hundreds of your blog readers who share the same sentiments.
These comments are somewhere between pathetic and hilarious. Mostly pathetic though. I wish I could say I had no idea there were so many people who had the mental faculties of a retarded rock; but unfortunately I knew exactly what to expect.
You are completely entitled to say whatever you want in your blog, just as they are entitled to play with a keyboard and call it writing.
My opinion on this whole fiasco? Even Hitler had mourners.
I know I’m late, actually he is, still, here’s wishing you a happy birthday, which it was.
Cheers everyone.
Ara veru lanqas psikjatra ma jfejjqek lilek ta.
It’s funny how when you don’t know how to reply to an argument, you try to be condescending and correct grammar. Really witch-like of you. Charles Darwin would have been impressed by your evolution into a sad hag.
[Daphne – These are not arguments, anon, which is why I don’t bother with them. Condescension? Perhaps you think I should treat these people as my equals. They are clearly not and they know it, which is the root cause of their malice and frustration. Grammar is my particular interest.]
Perhaps then you should write a book. At least explain your frustration in a more organised and coherent manner. Your blogs are full of bullshit and you know it. Karma is a bitch, so be prepared.
When karma is a bitch, why bothering anyway?

Daphne. I will begin by saying that I am no fan of Mintoff and, yes, I do agree with you that Mintoff and the person next to him in the photo (Lorry Sant) have done some terrible things when they were in power. There are those (many of them) who have suffered a lot under Mintoff, but there were also those who gained in social services and benefits which were inexistent before Mintoff became prime minister. These people (those who were brought out of poverty) will be hurt by what you are saying here and grateful to Mintoff for what he has done for them. I believe that some sensitivity wll always help when a person, who has raised much controversy, but who is much loved by many dies. Besides, it is wrong for you to write in such an abraisive style.
To be honest, nor am I impressed politically by his daughter, but this gives me no right to attack her in manner you have chosen to here. A balanced analysis/avaluation would have been more appropriate at this point. You must also be aware of the fact that attacking Mintoff’s chidren is useless and wrong to say the least. They are passing through sad times. He was their father after all. We should learn from the pass mistakes especially those of Mintoff at these times, without having to be vindictive.
[Daphne – I don’t give a monkey’s cuss in hell if they are “passing through sad times”, just as they didn’t give a cuss in hell and lived as far away as possible when their bastard father made other people’s lives a misery back home in Malta. Passing through sad times? Why, because a man they despised in life because he made their mother miserable and who they avoided for so long has died aged 96, leaving them so much money that they never have to worry about it again? Give it a rest. It is no surprise to discover that those who know least about Mintoff are those who support him most.]
Oh that’s yet another can of worms… money.
Daphne, you would know better than I do, but isn’t he one of the richest people in Europe?
I don’t need to go into the how and where he managed to pocket so much money now, do I?
fuck you daphne you fuckinggggggg bastard i wish that one day you will be fucked in your ass by a big black cock
[Daphne – I thought we’d end up there before long. I can’t help but suspect that when men say exactly those words to a woman, it’s because they rather fancy some of that themselves, but can’t confront the knowledge.]
Daphne, are you joining Dr Alfred Sant in the celebrations?
I propose the 20th of August to be declared the true ‘Jum il-Helsien’.
you are truly a worm!!
jum il helsin taf meta jigi ? meta jaqa dak il kurnut ta’ gver
I think the main bad here was the form of presentation of the content, rather than the content itself. For even in freedom of speech, there is something called human decency. And just because he didn’t have any it doesn’t mean one should go down to his level. Rather than reading on what the saints and you would be doing, I’d rather have read what he did as further support to your point. Just a few suggestions on what to write next time another political celebrity dies.
[Daphne – The Maltese disease, the result of a society developing among hundreds of thousands of people squashed together on a rock 17 miles by nine, and another, even smaller, rock. Spare me your views. I have had a lifetime to consider them and I’m still having none of it. What you are talking about is not ‘basic human decency’, but the survival instinct kicking in.]
In the end, how different is this anger-rant from the ones the deceased one specialised so much in?
Miskina. vera ta` min jithasrek x`hasra ta` bniedma kemm waqajt lilek inifsek fil baxx. Mux ta bxejn MINTOFF twieled fi 6 ta` Awissu dik id data hija il festa ta` salvatur u kien haqqu jitwiled f`dik il gurnata ax MINTOFF tassew kien salvatur.
Salvatur tac-cikkulata CATCH kien. Int bis-serjeta?
Salvatur li qabelxejn ma salvax lilu nnifsu x’salvatur hu?
kull min qed imaqdar lil mintoff ghali jista jkun ic children allowance , il bonus u l-penzjonijiet tohduhom ? ma nahsibx li tarmuhom .m hemmx min itik xebgha u jwadbulek il platti bhal ma waddabt int ? Qziez u hara l int .
U tahseb int li kieku ma kienx Mintoff, kieku ma kontx tircievi c-Childrens’ Allowance jew il-penzjoni?
Dazgur li nohduhom u ferm akbar u ferm ahjar milli dawk li Gaddafi kien ihallas ghaliehom.

SA FEJN NAF JIEN GONZI THAJJAR INEHHI PENZJONI TA HI U BIH KWAZI KOLLOX LI BENA MINTOFF.
The irony in some of these comments is incredible.
DEAR ALL,

RIP
[Daphne – Miss Free, I despise Mintoff not only for I and those around me had to endure, but for what he did to the country. In 16 years, he made it one of the most miserable places in Europe, and with half of Europe behind the Iron Curtain at the time, that’s saying something. I despise him because nobody will ever give us back that lost time. It’s easy for those who came afterwards and who were raised in the luxurious heaven – by comparison – of the last 25 years to rewrite history and look back and praise that terrible man, but they speak from a position of great privilege that was denied my generation. So it is not for them to speak. It is for us to speak.]
I wrote to you twice..but my comments were not ppublished
[Daphne – Patience, my dear. There are another 350 comments waiting for upload this morning, after last night’s 200+.]
That’s to show the count of how many people hate you
It also reveals how many follow her blog. Many of the ones who admire her guts are simply relaxing and pitying the ignorance of Labour followers, mostly like Joseph, dedicated Mintoffjani who know nothing better than writing death threats and using gutter language which they are so accustomed to.
Why are you checking Daphne’s blog, anyway? You have The Times, l-orizzont, Illum, Maltastar, Malta Today and the Progressive Labour Party electronic sites to unload your bile on.
That also shows that you guys have an extremely weird way of mourning, Froggy.
I wrote to you twice..but my comments were not published
I have written since half nine
[Daphne – I was asleep. Have some patience.]
Daphne you’re a devil.. You are possesed….You need help..
What you wrote here is really insane…
I definately won’t vote the PN party next election and this is all because of you ….
You fuckin FREAK …
RIP Mintoff….
Imma how have you decided to change your vote because of the opinions of an independent journalist? What’s wrong with you ghid? Do you not see how intrinsically stupid what you just said was?
Nahseb mux Mintoff Gaddafi, imma int, a kelba
[Daphne – ‘A kelba’. I can’t help but notice how many of the Mintoff fans popping in here to insult me use ‘a’ instead of the correct ‘ja’. It’s dead giveaway of your social origins.]
Giveaway our social origins!!!!
Daphne gismu miet biss, l-ispirtu socjalista li bena Mimtoff ghadu haj u jibqa haj ghal dejjem. Isem Mimtoff ha jibqa jisemma hawm Malta sa tmiem id-dinja.
Pero dan inti tafu u b’hekk qed taghmel dan li qed taghmel fuq dan il-blog ghax taf li ghalkemm gismu miet hu xorta wahda ha jibqa madwarna ghax kull fejn thares tista tghid li dan bis-sahha tieghu li beda kollox.
Tghid li ghal grazzja ta Alla min hu zaghzugh bhali twelidt fil gena ta’ l-art ghax dejjem kont taht gvern Nazzjonalista. Il-genna ta’ l-art skond inti li jkollok delizzju u li hu anki tradizzjoni Malta li tigi michud li tghamlu ghax fil grupp li thalna u jigu jaqaw u jqumu minna. Genna ta’ l-art li biex tixtri fejn toqod trid tissallab ghal ghomrok. Fi zmiem il-Perit kien hawm tbatija u nghidlek tbatija imma bi ftit sagrificcji kont issir nies. Illum biex issir nies trid vera tmissek ix-xorti jew inkella taghmel xi haga llegalli.
Dear Daphne
Believe me many Maltese hate you for being blunt and for speaking out your mind( fact) but just bear in mind that there is at least one (me) who agrees with you all the way.
The hatred that Mintoff has injected in many is still here and can be seen in a lot of comments. He lived a sad, horrible life. He loved the Maltese so much that he wanted to integrate them to another completely different country.
This man who was so convinced that integration was so goo came about to even go against this project with so much force that whoever mentioned the word Britain would be turned into a hate figure.
Mintoff was a ‘pinnur’ and when he did all the 360% he realised that he had no direction but to retreat into his own messy shell.
Whenever someone came out with a bright idea he declared cynically that he was a star (Fenech Adami). Whenever he was challenged with reason he would use force (nigu u inkissrukhom).
I think all Maltese should heave a sigh of relief that this terrible man is done with and thank God, that we will be spared from the likes of him ever again. Or at least, we hope so.
The pity is that he did not go down like Robespierre and others like him. The days he ruled were days of terror and I will not mince words. I shall not be goody goody and ask God to give him eternal rest. I will consider that as swearing and making God do a very bad thing.
I AGREE WITH YOU ALL THE WAY, ABOUT THE BORN STAR BECAUSE HE WAS MADE A LEADER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.
Bitch were you living in malta the past 30 years ?? or were you busy sucking dicks
That’s the whole point, Dale.
If you only know what has happened in Malta over the last 30 years, you need to find out what happened BEFORE, when Mintoff was in power.
His adoring fans are keen to mention the social reforms he introduced – which were being introduced all over Europe at the time, so nothing special there – but they don’t mention the hardship, violence and total lack of rule of law that existed till we finally got rid of him and the PL from government.
Read your history without blinkers on and then you may start to understand what many of us went through thanks to your beloved Mintoff.
Is that what you occupy your time with when not living in Malta?
I have read your article, and all the posts. In a way I was a bit shocked to read what you said, although I strongly believed there is a freedom of speech, but although I am not a Mintoff fan, still I found the comment harsh, could have waited to be posted several days after his funeral at least. I am sorry as well for all the rubbish of comments and bad words of frustration from a lot of other Maltese, if you are angry of what Daphne has said, you have right to comment and say your opinion but leave it clean as she did without offending anyone’s family or wishing you death. I believe a lot in freedom, now that we have it please use it with caution and honesty.
ps: wrote in English so everyone could read my message, as I saw a lot of posts from foreign countries, not becauce I lost my Maltese language.

May I express my humble opinion. I really feel saddened by all the comments, pro or against Dom Mintoff, expressed in a very unChristian way. Why can’t we approve or disapprove simply by offering our opinions. I sincerely believe that we can say whatever we wish to say in a much more Christian tone.
[Daphne – Why Christian, Mr Xuereb? Are you of the view that one must be Christian to be civilised? Religion has nothing to do with it.]
That the problem you are neither christine nor civilised!!!
[Daphne – Christine min hi, Mary? Kemm intkom injoranti. Il-vera kaz.]
Hilarious, christine?
Must have been one of those who received her education during the progressive years of the Socialists.

I feel so sorry for your husband and you children to have a such a hateful wife and mother!!!

Ghaziza Daphne,
Mhux kulhadd trabba f”English-speaking family” bhalek. Ghandi dubji kbar kemm int kapaci tispelli l-Malti minghajr zbalji.
Missek tisthi.
Jew forsi tifhimni ahjar jekk nghidlek “SHAME ON YOU”???
[Daphne – Fil-fatt, Miss, nikteb u nitkellem bil-Malti hafna ahjar minn dawn is-salt Mintoffiani hodor li hawn hawnhekk.]

Qatt ma xtaqt deni lil hadd, imma jalla id deni li tixtieq il haddiehor jigi fuqek . U cert li xi darba, illum jew ghada jigi zgur, J’ alla ma ddumx ma ssib kappell jigik. Ghandu biex jiftahar il partit bik !! Kem aw nies li ma jahmlukx, u mux il montoffjani biss imma dawk kolla li ghandom mohhom miftuh.
May you and all those close to you Rot in hell sick bastard.
Meta tmut int festa jkollok. kulhadd jahralek fuq il qabar ghax il hara mal hara jmur.
‘Qatt ma xtaqt deni lil hadd’. Illostra Clayton, bil-kbir dhalt fil-klabb tal-imxajtnin issa!
I can’t understand why folks schlep all the way over to this blog, knowing all the while what they’re going to find, and then get worked up about it.
Did you all really expect a glowing eulogy?
Heck, I came here to read just the opposite. I guess everyone needs a hobby and making death threats and cursing rank high in national pursuits.
Qatt ma kont nghid li se nsib persuna aktar marida min Normann Lowell!! Kieku minnek mmur nara xi tabib Daphne ghaliex nahseb kellek abbuz qawwi lol
Insomma haga nghidlek…. MINTOFF HUWA MISSIER MALTA HIELSA!! HUWA KELLU JKUN U MHUX IL PARTIT TIEGHEK!
LIVE WITH IT!!
Veru li qieghed tghid, ISSA MALTA TASSEW HIELSA!!!!
malta terga tigi hielsa wara l elezzjoni!!!! u tkomplux tkunu hamalli, lil mintoff halluh jistrieh kif jixraqlu
‘MISSIER MALTA HIELSA’ u mwikkija bil-MINTOFFJANI.
Daphne, x’tahseb li int biex tghid hekk? Tidher li int mara bla politika, bla religjon, u fl-opinjoni personali tieghi.. bla hajja. Il-mejjet jixraqlu rispett, haga li nahseb meta tmut int zgur mhux se jkollok.
Bil-logika tieghek Julian, Hitler ukoll jisthoqqlu rispett?
Daphne,
You and people of your ilk have a huge challenge indeed ahead. Because the way you are expressing yourself about Mintoff shall not win you paradise! On the contrary, you stand a chance of going to hell too.
Now how about that for your misery? if you also go to hell and join Mintoff there? Wouldn’t it be awful for you having to endure his company for eternity?
So why don’t you reflect on your behaviour for once and say a prayer for his soul instead? Jesus forgave his enemies and the ones who killed him. But may be I am expecting too much from an allegedly intelligent person like you!
I am sorry to say, but you are so short sighted! Or may be you have an agenda in your head! To provoke the PL supporters to do something irregular so that you have something to attack them with! Am I right?
I do not know whether Mintoff deserves hell or not. Let God decide. I am glad though, that you are not God, otherwise hell is meant only for PL supporters and heaven for the likes of RCC, you, EFA and the rest of the mob!
you should know better.
YOU are a proof witches DO exist!
Nisthi nuri li jiena Maltija meta jeziztu nies moqzieza bhalek jaslu jiktbu dal kummiedji ! Xmisthija

URI AKTAR RISPETT DAPHNE
Titkaza b’Daphne ghax zammet l-opinjoni taghha dwaru. Nitkaza bik ghax taqa’ iktar baxx mill-livell taghha b’dal kliem oxxen.
You are the lowest form of journalist. It is neither clever or funny to write such disgusting insults on a man who died a few hours ago. A total lack of respect for the Mintoff family, friends and followers. Shame on you.
Dear Daphne, remember that what goes round comes around.
[Daphne – My point exactly, but you just don’t get it.]
i guess you are the one that is not getting dear!! I cant wait for that day to hit you!!
Very ladylike of you isn’t it Mary? You’ve been throwing insults blindly. But of course, Mintoff ghamilna nies. U mhux talli hekk, imma ta l-vot lin-nisa, imn’alla kien hu ghalina n-nisa, tana d-dinjita’.
It came around at the age of 96, hope you are as lucky.
What N. Frendo said is true, but what exactly is your point. I try to be in your boots, explain to us. You are making enemies by the minute. I’m a PN Supporter and will not even think of such things, you should be careful what you write. Even our leaders hailed the person and one feel sorry for the loss. I know a friend of mine that when Dr. Demarco died, he told me that he was touched and followed his funeral on TV right till the end. What you are saying of what happened in those times is exactly what you are doing now. You are jeopardizing the PN and we don’t need people like you to put us at a worst position than we are at the moment.
Do you dare walk in the streets at this moment?
D. Grima
I wish you a very happy birthday Daphne.How are you going to spend the day? With family and friends I suppose.Can you tell us?You are living in hatred and you can never be happy Can we join? You deserve a very nice present.And by the way ,how old are you?
Daphne I think that today is a very bad day for you.To write about a great man like Mintoff in that way one must not be in his right senses,and after death! Speak well of your friends and nothing of your enemies.
You must forgive and forget so that you will be forgiven.If you do not forgive you will have an unhappy life.That is what you show in your blog.What does your husband say?
[Daphne – My husband feels possibly even more contempt for Mintoff than I do, lola. And that is quite apart from the fact that in the 21st century, wives do not ask their husband’s permission before expressing an opinion.]
A right given to you by Mintoff, dear Daphne. If your memory plays well, then you can easily recall that under the PN women had not even voting rights, let alone expressing themselves about politics and governments!
[Daphne – Mintoff did not introduce the vote for women. Learn your history, instead of repeating the rubbish your party winds you up on.]
But for you what is red is ignorant, what is blue is righteous!
No one stopped you from celebrating, but showing disrespect towards the people who feel that Mintoff did something useful for them, that is absolutely cruel and wicked! Do you seriously believe that by showing these abnormal emotions of yours you can win any people’s hearts? Something the party you support desperately needs coming elections? Do you seriously think that spitting this venom would change a dime towards Mintoff’s destiny?
And if your husband feels such contempt for Mintoff, let it be. Everyone has his own demons to bemoan. We had Gonzi and he (like many others) has Mintoff.
‘Do you seriously think that spitting this venom would change a dime towards Mintoff’s destiny?’ Ghandek ragun Paul. Tant ghamel hsara, zera’ mibeghda u kisser nies, li xejn ma jista’ jibdel id-destin tieghu. Dal li tizra’ tahsad.
As soon as I heard that Dom Mintoff died, I rushed to this site, only to find it down (presumably due to traffic).
Daphne, why do you bother arguing with labour-supporters? It’s kind of like playing chess with a pigeon – it will climb on the board, knock over all the pieces and then proceed to shit on it, and then it will think it won.
I just want to say thank you for having the guts to write this piece that speaks the truth, and for providing me a week’s supply of entertainment in reading the comments. Unfortunately I must remain anonymous as I don’t have the guts you have.
Take care, Daphne, don’t ever let the Labour idiots stop you from writing.
cowards are born and die anonymous! Not like Mintoff!
[Daphne – Mintoff was the ultimate coward.]
Kien ukoll wiehed mill-akbar viljakki fil-politika Maltija. Staqsi lill-familjari ta’ Boffa. U jekk ma tafx, ghax insejt jew ghax ma tridx taf, infakkrek biss x’ghamel waqt li Boffa kien Londra ma’ bintu.
Again Daphne, tell us why he was a coward. I had a different opinion about you but now, I’m sorry to say that I don’t admire you anymore. There are ways and means how to say things. You should be very careful.
Danny
Ma messekx tisthi tikumena hekk fuq bniedem kbir li imnalla kien hu ghal Malta!!! Mela ma ghandekx mera id dar, ghandek ghonqok twil qisu ta flamingo!! Imma flahhar tibzax ta…. ghad issib kappell jigik….
awful, shameful and disgusting. Why all these rude and nasty words ? Stop it with ”Ostji” I am not a labourite but now what has been done has been done and we cannot reverse the clock. Yes Mintoff was a great leader and loved his Country very much. He did good things and took great measures in their right directions. On the other hand he did somethings that were lesss good or perhaps even not good at all but errare umanum est. Let us not be WE to judge him as the Lord warns us ” Judge not lest you be judged.” And please both sides STOP POINTING FINGERS. Instead together let’s say a short prayer for him if we are christians. ” Eternal rest grant unto him Oh Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. Grant him eternal rest dear Lord.
Michael Camilleri, Mintoff mhux ‘somethings that were lesss good or perhaps even not good at all’ ghamel. Mintoff ghamel il-hajja infern lil hafna u hafna nies.
you hateful bitch your time to pay dues will come dont worry everybody has to hope you will redeem all this hate you have inside for your sake i truly have compasion for you you think you make us laugh ja sahharra la bella vita will come to and end soon
Everyone is going on about how bad her comments are and bla bla bla. The comments she is receiving back are 10 times worse. People are saying that she is speaking badly about someone who has just died!!
Have you read the threats and comments she received in return?
I mean if there was a more contradictory based society I would be extremely impressed. People can say what they feel and not everyone has to agree. I wish i knew enough about everything to give a constructive argument about everything but I don’t.
How does one man get a 500 euro fine and a suspended jail sentence for sharing a joke about the pope, and yet Daphne gets to say what she wants? Anybody else smell that?
[Daphne – Some people probably ‘smell that’, Pete; look through these comments for an insight into how thick they are. The rest of us know the difference between using the internet to threaten others and using it to express our opinion. Under the law, it’s your friends here who are committing a crime, not me. I get to say what I want because I know the law and stay within it, and also because THIS IS NOW A FREE COUNTRY NO THANKS TO THAT DEAD BASTARD UNDER WHOSE GOVERNMENT IT WAS THE DIRECT OPPOSITE.]
Pete, I happen to know the man you mention. This is his latest comment on a page asking for Daphne’s arrest:
Napprezza kieku ma ddahlunix fin-nofs. Jien iggilidtha ghax nemmen bil-liberta’ tal-kelma. Iddahlux ismi fi grupp li qed imur kontra il-liberta’ tal-kelma. Jekk temmnu li l-kelma ta’ xi hadd hija bazi bizzejjed biex tarresta persuna, nistidinkhom tmorru il-Pakistan.
So, please, unless you have anything worth saying, go back to your cave to watch some reality show. Or go to Pakistan, as he said.
Its thanks to him that Malta is a free country, because if it was for people like you we would still be a colony!! So stop acting all high and mighty because its thaks to him you are where you are!!!
Sorry to disappoint you Mary, but if you check your history properly, you will find it was Borg Olivier who brought us Independence, hence freedom, and not Mintoff.
‘Its thanks to him that Malta is a free country’. Mary haqqa l-premju ghall-ahjar cajta tal-gurnata!
…and that is the reason why, not only Malta but the whole world, is in the sad state it is in. When things are done in accordance to laws rather reason and common sense.
Whose reason and common sense? KMB tried the ‘people’s courts’.
This has to be the epitome of all comments posted by the moderate progressives to date.
So Daphne, are you within the law if you call Mintoff a bastard?
Or are you referring to someone else, Guido de Marco perhaps? In any case, can you shed some light as whether it is lawful to call someone, even if he died a bastard? Provided you have proof, he actually was/is?
[Daphne – Ah, I see, another literal thinker who believes that when you call somebody a bastard, it’s because he was born out of wedlock. JAHASRA.]
Nimmagina li ghalhekk xbajt diehla u hierga l-qorti fuq libelli ghax taf hafna il-ligi
[Daphne – Injorant, kulhadd jista itellaghni l-Qorti ghall-libell. It’s the outcome that counts.]
Injuranta u pastaza int u min itik id-dritt tparla u tikteb kif gie gie, jien ma insultajtekx, imma l-ispizjara milli ikolla ittik.
It is a free country indeed but I wonder whether our grandparents, who lived in a country run by a colonial government who was primarily interested in military matters, had no decent pension system, no children benefits to help a bit, where women like you where paid less than men simply for being women, where not enough schools were ever built for everyone, in a country where being born gay was considered a criminal act, where priests were considered GODS , where at least a minimum wage was unthinkable and many other mintoff era initiatives , would call themselves FREE. Come on guys , we have the right in modern days to call people like mintoff names but for heaven’s sake , let’s not
Min jaf ommok u missierek x’dizunur ghandhom li t-tifla li weldu kella tispicca hekk ….. Sfortunatament biz-zmien kien hemm trasformazjoni gewwa fik … li min persuna umana trasformajt ruhek bhala haga ezistenti. Jista jkun ukoll li gewwa fik trabba dimonju jew xitan u ghandek bzonn ghajnuna ta xi ezorcista biex inadfek min gewwa. Nemmen li Alla dejjem jahfer lil bnedmin hziena imma zgur li ha jkollu problema kbira biex inaddaf haga ezistenti bhalek ……
I love love love all the hypocrites below, claiming that celebrating Mintoff’s death is just wrong and then wishing for Daphne death and even threatening to cause it.
How about leading by example you pathetic lot of cry-babies?
Well done, Daph…FREE FUCKING SPEECH, LOSERS.
You talking about free speech? Get a life before you decide to expose your ignorance….
And you end your message with Free F***ing speech, losers and you are not able to use your real name. Now that is what I call losers.
Danny
You can always point out who the real labour supporters are if you turn to the comments. Kullhadd joffendi.
It’s they who should rot in hell, together with their beloved Mintoff. None of them remember the dark days Malta was in whilst he was in government, it seems.
When we die we may be surprised two times!
We shall be surprised to end up in the place where we never expected to go and we shall be surprised to meet people in that same place we never expected to meet.
So don’t play God and judge. Since you may be judged beforehand!
Paztaza, Bik ha nimxu il quddiem Malta , ja mara arroganti u bla qalb, ghax ma tmurx tintremma , Mintoff ideddika hajtu ghal Malta ,u inti mandek lebda dritt tajd kliem hekk, dal-gvern il min irrid biss jara min qed jghamel hazin, lilek immishom jarmuk fil mizbla bhal ma kienu jghamlu lil Laburista ja hanzira.
‘Mintoff ideddika hajtu ghal Malta’. Dic-cajta thabbatha ma’ ta’ Mary.
I THINK THAT THE SAINTS WENT OUT WHEN YOUR MOTHER AND FATHER TRIED TO ENTER AS THEY WERE REFUSED ENTRANCE BECAUSE THEY BROUGHT YOU IN THIS WORLD. YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN BORN IN THE ABYSSES INSTEAD OF HERE. THIS IS THE THANKS FOR GIVING YOU THE FREEDOM TO WRITE WHAT YOU FEEL NOT LIKE THE OLD DAYS WHEN WE COULD NOT EXPRESS OURSELVES. NOW I LEAVE YOU TO CONTINUE TO CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY YOU UGLY BITCH.
‘THIS IS THE THANKS FOR GIVING YOU THE FREEDOM TO WRITE WHAT YOU FEEL’. Cajta ohra tajba hafna.
Daphne, I admire your honesty, guts and completely agree with you.
Additionally, to all these pro Mintoff fans putting rubbish comments here: if you want to comment, please be adequate enough to at least spell correctly. This behaviour just reflects your stupidity and lack of education, apart from your apparent memory-loss.
Now…LET’S CELEBRATE.
I think you are the one who is suffering from memory-loss my dear!!
Kemm int persuna hadra u bla qalb. halih jistrieh fil paci ja indanata. kun af din percinella li min jixtieq d deni lil haddiehor jigi f wiccu. ahjar tisakar gewwa ja sahara u tara x taghmel int ghax hadt ma jahmlek jaaaaa kerha ja pinocino
VIVA MINTOFF U GRAZZI TA KULL MA AMILT GHAL DAN L PAJJIZ. MHU SE NINSEWK QADT.
‘VIVA MINTOFF U GRAZZI TA KULL MA AMILT GHAL DAN L PAJJIZ’. Ikolli nammetti li l-Mintoffjani ghandhom sens ta’ umorizmu eccellenti u fin hafna.
Percinella? Pinocino? OMG!
Why are you taking this lady so seriously guys? Did anyone of you get something thanks to Daphne? If MIntoff is a bastard, well maybe Daphne is the devil on earth. Mrs. Caruana Galizia, if I shall address you this way, every government the maltese islands had left an impact on our lives. So shut up once and forever cause this country needs intelligent not bastards like you!
AND ALL OF YOU OF GUYS AND GIRLS…. DON’T GIVE MRS. DCG TOO MUCH IMPORTANCE. MAYBE PINOCCHIO FOUND HIS SOUL MATE…..
Dan il-pajjiz mimli b’gurnalisti partiggjani u bla skrupli u li jitkellmu min postijiet alternattivi! M’ghandi l’ebda imhabba lejn Mintoff, imma li tikteb artiklu hekk fuq persuna mejta fuq gazzetta hija haga moqzieza u turi li forsi l-ligi tac-censura wara kollox ma kienitx daqshekk hazina. Dan l-artiklu ma serva xejn biex kebbes in-nar tal-mibgheda f’pajjiz li ghandu prooblema b’politika polarizzata bhal-Malta.
Missek tisthi DCG, ircevejt l-unur li inpoggik fl-imkien ma dak il-pastaz u injurant Lou Bondi. Giex purcinelli tal-partit Nazzjonalista.
Dephnie, i really respected some of your toughts in the past, but today it seems like you trowed every thing you did in a garbage bag. even hard core nationalist always say Mintoff was a great man, ok he done mistake ( who do not? ) but one can not underastemate what a change he bring to the Maltese People and culture. in all these comment i pretend that the officials in the nationalist Party will deplore againts your article, its out of all means what you wrote in here. how can you talk on a man like this when he made the woman a real human by giving her all the human rights. first of all are you a woman??? if yes! like him or not you must atleast thank hime for this that you have to talk and write your taughts. forget the other things, you are you today thanks to him. if i were you i will apologize with all people and most of all with god for this forbetten sin. i am sorry for you!
[Daphne – People who respected some of my toughts and think I trowed every thing in a garbage bag would have been incapable of reading anything I’d written or understanding it. So don’t bother pretending. You’re really not convincing.]
Do they make T-Shirts with this entry printed on them? “I went to a Lejber Party club and all i getted was this T-Shirt”.
‘Mintoff was a great man, ok he done mistake ( who do not? )’. Aqtghuha din tal-mistakes. Mintoff xerred il-mibeghda u kisser il-hajja ta’ hafna nies, u mhux ghamel xi zbalji.
University standards have really dropped, judging by this gentleman’s post. http://www.facebook.com/daniel.orsini.50
Daphnie jien nithassrek. Veru bniedma ta` livell baxx. Miskin min jifrah bil-mewt ta` haddiehor. Illum jew ghada anke int trid tmut. Jidher li sa issa hadd ma mietlek. Meta jmut xi hadd mill-familja tieghek nahseb li ma tixtieqx jghidu il-kliem li ghedt int. Jekk ma taqbilx almenu ghalaq halqek u ikteb fuq xi haga ohra. Nahseb ghandek salib ukoll xi ggorr. Jekk ma`ghandekx taf ikollok ghada. Urejt kemm int bniedma baxxa u ma jisthoqqlokx hlief moghdrija ta` mohh miskin u fjakk.
GOOO, DAPHNE!
Dom Mintoff was a horrible man and despite the few things he might have done which benefited us, we Maltese still went through hell under his reign so good riddance to him.
we all have our opinions and this is Daphne’s and most Maltese agree, so all you ‘Laburisti’ can take your fucking opinions and threats and keep them to yourselves.
For your information I’m not a Labourite, and I still disagree with the rubbish she said. Evidently you two are of the same level.
fuck you kelsey you bastard

Mela mhux homor issa purcinell! Well what can I expect from a half baked illiterate who would need an iPad to pass his time.
Do you work by any chance? Or are you on social benefits whilst surfing the internet?

This site should be closed down! Shame on you Daphne .. Where are the authorities for such an un-human act!? You should be banned for life to blog or post on any newspaper or public site. Irrelevant of being a PN or PL follower, such blog should never be posted.
crucify her!
Maybe it is not nice to ill speak of the dead but I fully admire Daphne for being honest and outspoken and having the courage to say what the majority of the people are thinking deep in their heart.
Thank God, today we live in a democracy and have freedom of speech not like the bad old Mintoff days where had no freedom at all.
A lot of people seem to have forgotten what it was like living under Mintoff who sought to control every detail of our lives. And to all those who seem to believe that there is a special place for Dom Mintoff in heaven – come on, are you serious?
F’ daqqa wahda sirtu religjuzi. Mela nsejtu meta dhaltu tkissru l-Curia?
L-injoranza taghkom tqabbadni l-bard. Wara kollox anki l-ghaziz Dom kien jindirrizakhom bhala ‘INJORANTI’ fil-meetings u kontu iccapcpulu. Thank God we are out of these dark ages and we now have freedom of speech.
Hear hear.
Meta qalilhom fi pjazza Gavino Gulia li huma m’ghandhomx bocci tal-laham, capcpulu u elogjawh.
Hamsa u ghoxrin sena wara, u injuranti kienu u baqghu, u issa irnexxilhom irabbu generazzjoni ohra ta’ injuranti hodor odjuzi u ghajjurin aktar milli kienu huma. Harja f’ wicc l istipendji li hallasna ghal uliedhom.

In these comments we see the hatred, division and intolerance of free speech if Labour comes to power next year.
The Mintoffjani are still full of intolerance and hatred, I disagree with Daphne on some issues, but I defend her right to say them.
Thank you Daphne for doing what many fear to do. I left Malta 33 years ago because of the violence perpetrated by the Mintoff mobs.
Keep it up Daphne!
If writing this rubbish article for you is good work, then I say good riddance – you did a favour to all of those who stayed here and fought – even Dom Mintoff – instead of having ran away like a coward!
The point is – I don’t love Dom Mintoff, but I disagree with the rubbish written by this sorry excuse for a blogger!
Naccetta l-fatt li kulhadd ghandu l-opinjoni u t-twemmin tieghu … imma qatt ma ghandek turi nuqqas ta’ rispett lejn il-proxxmu!!
Jiena nemmen li Mintoff f’qasir zmien hadem aktar milli daz-zmien li ghaddejjin minnu u hidma zero sakemm ma tkunx hidma li ggibna aghar milli konna! Madankollu xorta ghandna nuru rispett!
Grazzi talli ghallimnti kif ghandi nkun lejn il-proxxmu u kif MA RRIDX li nkun! u talli sahhahtli l-fehmiet tieghi!
Ever village has one and you must be there leader
Ghaziza Daphne,
Allura inti qed tinkett daqshekk ghal dak li wettaq ex priministru go pajjizek u qed tibki u tiddispra ghaz zmien li hlielek u fl-istess hin qed tkompli timxi fuq il passi ta dan li tant ghandek stmerrija ghalih.
Qed tkompli tahli zmienek li flok twettaq xi haga kostruttiva posittiva go pajjizek, qed tkompli theggeg u ixxerred rabja u mibgheda li tant nafu nghixuha ahna il-maltin.
Possibli persuna kapaci iccaqlaqlek id-dghajsa daqshekk? Kemm tinstema iktar soda! Kellek passat kemxejn tqil ghaziza u qas tiflah iggorru wahdek. Trid il-pubbliku jkompli jimlilek dak il-vojt. Toqghodx tistghageb ghal kummenti fil-vojt li qed tircievi ghax inti stess qed titlob ghalihom.
Jekk vera jiddispjecik u thoss li saret il-hsara Malta, ghandek tinduna “bl-intelligenza” kollha tieghak, li il-malti jekk jisma dan li qed tippublika int, ha jirvilla.
Din mhix kwistjoni ta politika, qas jinteressani assolutament xejn. Tidhol il-politika u il-valuri jisparixxu bhal ma qed turina car inti.
Jiddispjecini nisma li nies bhalek ghadhom jezistu iduru ma saqajn il-familjari tieghi. Fittex soluzzjoni ohra ghax tidher mara kapaci u ma tibza minn hadd. Kun naqra iktar posittiva imma u ibda minnek innifsek jekk tista taqbad art. Hallih il-pubbliku tibqax timtela bih ghax dak li qed titfalu qed jitfahhulek lura u tgergirx ghax int qed titlob ghalih.
Jekk se tirrispondini, jekk jghogbok taqax fl-ivell patetiku. Inkella ghati ir-risposti lilek innifsek u jekk tinzel naqra minn fuq dak il-pedestall li il-pubbliku malti stess tellak fih, jaf tibda titghallem ticciviliza ruhek u mhux tishet is-sigha u il-mument li tqum kull filghodu u tara minn hu il-vittma li jmiss.
Qum mir-raqda jekk trid tgawdi dil-hajja!
Can’t agree more Daphne, I hope he is where he always wanted to be, by Gaddafi’s side.
Din xi xeba qed tistenna qisu
Wow ! What a hateful bitch you are !
Not even when my ex-partner , who caused me so much ,much suffering died was I so nasty…
anzi with respect to his father I even went to his mass and to attend the funeral…u hawn tigi inti, bniedem ghadu kif miet, u tghid dan il-hama kollu fuqu !
Nittama li kull gurnata li tibqa ‘ tghix tkun imdejqa kif juri li inti llum mill mibgheda u hdura li tobzoq minn halqek !
I bet you attended your ex;s funeral to make sure he is securely nailed in and buried six feet under, and then rushed off to claim your widow’s pension .
nibda biex najdlek aqta naqa in nejk li ghandek.. da lingliz kollu!! ghax jekk int vera kburija b malta u trid li malta tigi al ahjar ibda int billi tiprattika il lingwa taghna sewwa!! haga ohra amel pjacir lil kulhadd u lewwel ara it tajjeb KOLLU li ghamel mintoff imbad ara l hazin!! ax kiku ma kienx mintoff int mintx tikteb l opinjoni bhal ma ghamilt hawn fuq!! taf x naf inajd li din kolla ghira!! prova kun halu ha naraw kemm jirnexilek igibna f pozizzjoni ahjar!!!
ara vera muqrana u liba int ta !! jalla tmut mewta iterturata u meta tmut int jicelebra haddiehor liba !! fox il qabar ta min mitlek l ahhar muqrana !! qisek pufta ikrah !! mur qerr u itlob mahfra l alla jekk haqqek li jahfirlek !! kulhadd b xi hobby fid dinja !! min jobod il mintoff bhalek u min jobod lilek bhali liba !!
I think people do not understand that by not divulging their real name/real email address, they still do stand the risk of being tracked.
Daphne could have a field day dishing out law suits against many people in here, but probably she simply won’t be bothered.
Although I do not always agree with your views, I accept that you are free to write what you’re writing, contrary to some of the replies you are receiving.
If Daphne could dish out law suits for ppl here replying to her wile comments shouldnt she be d one to have a lawsuit against her?
[Daphne – You must have grounds for a law suit, Caroline. What would be your grounds for suing me? You can’t “just sue”.]
You said that she is free to write what she wants then its stands for all the ppl who are answering her. Maybe some are using vile language but I cannot c anything more vile then disrispecting the dead who have not even been gone for 24hrs!!
Galizia, I fucking love you.
I don’t give a shit about politics but there’s too much of a buzz about this.
What are all the “x’qatt ghamillek hazin miskin…qatt ma mietlek xi hadd ghaziz ghalik?…ghamel hafna gid ghal Malta” comments about?
Come on, was he a relative of yours, people? Were you really living in his era? Or are you just a bunch of ‘naghag ta’ Bendu’? Because your nanna has this huge photo of him in the corridor with probably two red candles brightly lit right now, then you will respect him too?
At least Daphne Caruana Galizia had the decency to keep her opinion of Mintoff even after half of Malta is mourning him.
No big deal, some people are still talking shit about him just like they used to when he was alive. The only difference is that he’s dead now. WOW – dnub mejjet, eh?
Ghax issa miskin mejjet allura nbiddlu l-opinjoni taghna dwaru u ma nibqghux noffenduh.
Happy birthday, Daphne!
Paroli fil vojt ghandna kieku .. mur hallina Luana. Min isegwi il politika jaf x’ghamel tjb Mintoff m’hemmx ghalfejn ikun jigi minnek. bhal kull emxxej iehor kien em it tajjeb u l-hazin .. imma Mintoff fi zmienu ta mexxej kien dak li gab lil pajjiz fuq siequ.
Dear Daphne
I am not the type of person who normally follows your blog but today I was intrigued. You managed to glue me to my laptop and read all the comments that you have been receiving.
My first reaction was that you were way out of line with your harsh words, and still think so, but that is democracy and the freedom of speech. ……. But now as time goes by I am having horrible flashbacks from the70’s and 80’s. This was how it was when I was growing up……….. Labourists and Mintoffjani spreading this type of violence…….. which I really hope my children will never taste in the future.
Yes Mr. Mintoff started out with great ideas, be it his idea or if someone else started them, but then he changed into a Dictator and I will explain myself so that the young generation can really understand what we went through growing up under this man.
1. If you wanted to buy the In…..taghna (because that’s what the Nazzjon was called in those days) you were beaten.
2. If you wanted to have a telephone or television in your home you had to bribe someone.
3. If you wanted to eat chocolate you could either choose Deserta or Catch.
4. Sugar and pasta were given out by ration to each family. I remember going to the “Grocer” to take my “Ratal” (equivalent of 800gr) of the week.
5. If you wanted to go abroad you were only allowed a certain amount of money to take with you whether it was for a week or a month the amount was still the same. If I am not mistaken it was LM25.
6. If you wanted to buy a colour TV you had to know people who knew people but that was not enough you also had to pay LM100 which in those days were equivalent to a LM1000 because of the wage freeze.
7. Whether you liked it or not you had to learn Arabic in order to be able to go to Sixth Form.
8. If you wanted a plot of land for free to build your house all you wanted to do was go to Lorry Sant and you could even choose locality and size. Even if you wanted to become a police officer forget your height or qualifications……… go to Lorry Sant or any other Minister for that matter but Lorry Sant was the all time favourite.
And the list goes on……….
That’s what I remember from Mintoff’s days. That is what I remember of my childhood days but there is something I also remember………. whilst I was living through this hell, Mr. Lorry Sant was buying half of M’Scala’s seafront to build his villa with exotic animals such as peacocks, Mr. Moran’s villa resembled Castille with it’s enormosity, whilst my father in those days was driving a beaten up Mini Minor most of the Labourist Ministers owned Mercedeses…………… that was the reality.
I don’t want to sound mean or disrespectful but those are the memories people my age (be it blue or red) have of Mr. Mintoff and that is why we react that way when his name is mentioned. Most of you were very rude and included vulgarity but you don’t know what it was like unless you experience what we did. For most of you Supermarkets are a normal way of life, we were like imgewhin and the only way to eat good chocolate or pasta was to go to Catania…….. but first you have to either hide what you had or else make friends with Customs Officers so they wouldn’t check your bags and have everything confiscated. Most of you were horrified when Libyans spoke about similar things happening under Gaddaffi’s Regime and that is how it was in our days.
What you take forgranted nowadays we had to wait for twenty years to achieve………………. so please before attacking Mrs. Caruana Galizia just walk down memory lane with people who lived it and try and imagine yourselves in our shoes.
I bet you wouldn’t last a day……… let alone 20 years.
Frankly, I must say that I wasn’t too appalled after reading this article. The reason is simple, I was aware of Daphne’s bitterness towards Dom and her words did not surprise me.
What definitely horrified me was the crowd’s response.
Yes, I’m sure you have Dom at heart but honestly some of the comments I’ve read have scarred me for life.
Half of them include swearing and very thrilling orthography.
I agree on people answering to threads and sharing thoughts but not in the manner I’ve seen here.
I’m quite sure everyone has a reason for either liking him or hating his guts. She clearly doesn’t have a reason for liking him, but that’s OK since the world is made up of mixed opinions (thank God).
We really live in a backwards country.
All you people spewing hate against Daphne saying go to hell f*xx ommok etc etc…I am not a man of god but if I remember correctly, judge lest you not be judged, and love thy neighbor as you love me were pretty important in the Christian dogma.
But I guess you are all too uneducated to realize what you are doing.
The saddest thing is that you have a vote that carries the same weight as mine.
What Daphne did could be called crass and in poor taste but it is not illegal so what you are all doing is just proving her right that you Mintoffjani are all uneducated animals who should be lined up in front of their families and shot.
if I had Daphne as my neighbour I will surely love the idea to blind fold her, cover her face as I might suffer from a serial of nightmares and shag her. that’s the most I can do otherwise I’d rather have a pig farm next to me as a neighbour rather than having that low life, with no self esteem bitch
[Daphne – I hate to break it to you, Mark, but if you lived near me, you WOULD have a pig farm as a neighbour. It’s just across the road.]
Interesting. They hate you but they want to have sex with you.
[Daphne – It’s been like that from day one. The subtext of their violence and hatred is invariably about sex. They don’t realise it themselves and they don’t know that I have the required knowledge to see it. These are people for whom sex, violence and misogyny are intertwined. It’s very ugly out there in Maltese underclass culture.]
Baxxter, it is why Mintoff liberalised sodomy.
You make part of the maltese underclass culture
also from your writing it seems that you’re one hell of an uneducated son of a gun….. wow you’re just saying that all Labour fans are to be lined up and shot….very nice of you. is that the way your leader whisper to you in your ears? aren’t we supposed to have one Prime minister who represents us all. shame on you backward mind you have not a backward country
Mr Cachia,
I was going to be sarcastic in this comment but I am afraid you won’t understand, so I will spell it out to you.
I do not have a leader. Unlike you i don’t choose a colour and stick with it. I use my brain.
I never said all Labour people should be lined up and shot, but that uneducated Mintoffjani should be. And that is just a British turn of phrase.
For their hypocritical comments, and about our country being backwards – well, just look at all the colorful enhancing language they are using in their comments. Just pure class.
Dear Daphne,
Rest assured that you will never rot in hell as you wished the two gentlemen above, because so many maltese will come ti piss on your grave (ibda minni) that you will not even make it to hell. By the way, I copied this blog so that I can paste it in memoriam to you when you eventually croak and die as your epitaph.
Good day, may you choke on your next breath.
you can choose to be sarcastic as much as you like backwards country. As a mater of fact my mind detects sarcastic people and all I do is care less about them. I will surely not get troubled with an idiot saying such a similar phrase about what his wish would dearly be to do to all Mintoffjani(just to exclude the word Labour) but writing similar barbarian stuff will lead you nowhere but to see what kind of low life people you are….. this is exactly like that prick of a local counciler (Julian at Sliema) forgot his surname said about that he do with his Labour employees…giving them less salary…. I give that credit too…. sick twats like you and all those who were so rude in your writings clearly show us what kind of mercenaries you are. would you like to be respected if there was a government change? then show some to get some!!!!!!!
I’m sorry, but sal-bieraħ jien kont proud li kont nazzjonalista, u I’m still proud that I have voted PN during the last election, imma sorry ta’ MILL-LUM qed nirraġuna li jekk il-partit tagħna għandu persuni moqżieża bħalek, mara mingħajr skrupli, ħadra daqstant, li bħalissa malta kollha kontrik, I’m very sorry go fuck yourself u you’re just a fucking shame for our beloved party. Ma’ mmissekx tistħi twaqqgħa għar-redikolu persuni mejta, umbgħad nifftaħħru li INT NAZZJONALISTA !!!. Qed tkompli tkisser partit li bħalissa huwa mkisser frak. YOU ARE JUST A FUCKING BITCH LI TAGĦMEL DIN L-AZZJONI BIEX BĦALISSA MALTA QED TASSOĊJA LILL-PARTIT TAGĦNA MIEGĦEK. ISTĦI JA MARA ĦAMALLA U BLA SKRUPLI. Mhux ta’ bxejn għandek imnieħrek kbir qisu pesisa ta’ dinosawru !!!
Pull the other one, the one with bells on, Sofie.
If you switch allegiance because of an article in a blog, then you must spin faster than a wind vane.
The biggest bastard calls a real man a bastard ? lol you disgust me daphne.
[Daphne – In English, ‘bastard’, like ‘cunt’ (also used erroneously elsewhere on this comments-board) is a pejorative term used exclusively for men. I don’t want you to waste your time by popping in here, so I’ll let you go away with some information you didn’t know before.]
@ Daphne I am not yet sure what runs through your disturbed mind/head. Whether you have any conscience, love, respect, any sort of human feeling towards anybody or anything! Sometimes I wonder whether you have received any yourself throughout your life!
I simply see you as a total psychopath who is struggling to show the world the hatered you have for the ones around you simply because you have not yet fullfilled your dreams or achieved what you have long waited for.
I would be ashamaed of myself, in these days, in such a civilised community, to write such aricles. Having said that I am not ashamed to openly express my opinion agianst you (or anyone who supports you)! I hope that sometime you realise that the world will definetley be a better place, certainly not through the passing away of a political leader (whoever he may be)! It will be a better place if people like you never existed or were not given the right to utter any word, betterso write down whatever goes through their sick minds!
Hope God has mercy on your soul when the day comes – unlike most people who read your blogs!
And finally, may Dom Mintoff rest in peace – at the end of the day, good or bad, he was a human being like the rest of us and throughout his life he struggled to give the working class a better life! So sorry that, unfrotunately, I can see no struggle from your side for anyone in Malta to get a better chance of life!
Joseph – EX PN supporter.
Ja mara hazina, ma tisthiex tghid hekk? F pajjiz b’ religjon kattolika edin ta, Minjaf kif tghallimom luliedek. Jalla il kliem li edt issib min jajdu lilek.
[Daphne – “Ja mara hazina”. I LOVE IT. I didn’t think people actually said this outside the Arcipierku.]
thats the least he can call you .. i can assure you
sorry can’t help it!! go to 0.50 :)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2n6M9BmpUlY
hope you had a great day yesterday!
All the best
HOW SAD! Is this your idea of ‘celebrating’ your birthday?? Seriously, you need to get laid! But then again who’d want to dig in sewers?
[Daphne – You need to get laid. The chav solution to the nation’s problems. That’s why you’re all reading Fifty Shades of Grey, because you’re so busy getting laid. Tal-biki.]
Seems like you know shades by heart… I assume you read it yourself. Don’t have another choice of gratification i guess…. This or shades…. How exciting
[Daphne – When you next have sex in a helicopter, call me.]
Woah wouldn’t want to spoil the moment by calling you lol. P.S with this statement here you confirmed your lack of ‘exciting’ moments
ghandek sahna fuqek daphne qas il kelba lghandi ma tiftah saqaja daqsek
Give me your number.
Priscilla
call her and make sure to invite her on the helicopter…… would be amazing watching daphne on her way down to hit the floor
one other thing make sure you already had sex before she arrives otherwise ……… as soon you c her bye bye sex.
We’re raped everyday for these last 25 years
Lucky you, Priscilla. That must be the only sex you’re getting.
Are batteries that cheap?
who gives you the right to judge ofc daphne you judge and are living better today cause the nationalist party is covering all your ass you stupid bitch -,- may you rot in hell -.-

I am taking this opportunity to thank all those who showed sympathy with the death of one of the strongest pillars that Malta ever had.
In the meantime I condemn you Cruella De Ville. Your low life never finish to surprise many people, we all know what your abilities are but nonetheless it seems that you always reign. let me tell you this, you pretend to be classy, but you’re nothing but a piece of dried shit you fucking whore. My only wish is to see the Karma working back to you and see you suffer while your last rites are being told to you. I will be the one of many shitting on your grave.
I only wonder if you ever were breast fed in your early days, or if your mum sipped venom directly in your mouth. No wonder why are you called the fucking SAHHARA TAL-BIDNIJA you long nosed whore
This goes to you BITCH…!!!
Jealousy is simply and clearly the fear that you do not have value. Jealousy scans for evidence to prove the point – that others will be preferred and rewarded more than you. There is only one alternative, self- value. If you cannot love yourself, you will never believe you are loved (which in your case Ms galizia you are not and will never be loved). You will always think it’s a mistake or luck. Take your eyes off others and turn the scanner within. Find the seeds of your jealousy, clear the old voices and experiences. Put all the energy into building your personal and emotional security. You should be ashamed of yourself you may think that death may not reach you one time or another but the only problem is that when it will reach you only God has to Create hell for you. If you ever decide to respond to this, you don’t have to bother I already know your answer…(we are ignorant, chicken heads and sooooo on) you always say the same old things…you’re soooo damn frustrated bitch. The difference between you and Mintoff is, Mintoff is well known with everyone not only in Malta by all the good he did for our country and for us including you, you say it’s not true but we all know it is true, every single one of us in one way or another is enjoying the good he brought to our country. On the other hand you are going to be well known by everyone infact you already are, for the rudeness etc and for the evil woman you are BITCH but that’s what jealousy brings you to do…That’s the big Difference between you and Mintoff BITCH.
And now he’s dead,so please let him rot in peace.
One cannot say that Mintoff did no good, but a lot of bad there was! His biggest mistake was letting Lorry Sant take over, bribes galore. Remember Pio Camilleri and their bella klikka.
One couldn’t even get a telephone line, colour TV, basic commodities in the shops – the worst was NO water at all. So I must say, I am not sorry he passed away. He should have gone sooner – but perhaps that was his punishment.
You forgot the Mars chocolate and toothpaste. We really needed those! But Mintoff unfortunately was more interested to get us pensions, schools, women rights to vote, education, minimum wage, free healthcare, employment and housing.
Of course there are some who abused and also passed away. But look at the present administration. Do you think they are getting fat from tap water?
get a life!
Why, there r no bribes now you think? Pronto! Terra chiama luna! No bella klikka now after 25 years? E.T. go home! Wake up!
Ja mara hazina jaqaw ma tafx int x’inhi misthijaaaaa ??!! Ara vera bitch bla ebda dubju taa you igonrant nationalist hater ! Int hateful mela Mintoff.. bhalu ma ssib imkien tipprova tintogob ma’ haddiehor u safrattant il-maggoranza tan-nies kontrik haduha! Anka nazzjonalisti ddejqu bl-agir tijakk sahhara kollok ! Hope you get what you deserve.. Ax nigi ngaralek il-platti
Do not give her the satisfaction of posting on her website people! She’s just desperate for a good root that’s all, but she’s too fat and ugly that even if she’s giving it away for free no man would be interested!!! So instead she takes out her frustration on a dead man!! She must be so sad!!! We’ll see what an intelligent reply we’ll get back of her…
[Daphne – ‘She takes out her frustration on a dead man’. Now I’m a necrophiliac but worse than that, one who fancies Mintoff’s corpse.]
the day you die daphne i will do make sure i will not just spit on your grave .. ill take a great shit on it too you whore
[Daphne – You’re very confident that you’re going to outlive me.]
Yep I knew she’d reply with something that she perceives as intelligent but really it’s a pretty damn stupid reply. Daphne since you brought it up and since you seem to agree with it ‘ you are a Necrophiliac ‘ as you are so obsessed and fascinated with the dead! However if I was you I wouldn’t brag about it as it also means that you have erotic attractions and sexual contact with corpses. Then again I wouldn’t hold it past you, after all we all know that you are one sick puppy !!

Dawn mhumiex shahar u hodor, tridx tmur. Nahseb li l-puluzija tista’ tipprocedi kontrijhom.
X’wirt hallielu Mintoff lil Joseph. Possibli jridhom wara biebu lill dawn in-nies? Ara ma jhallix lill uliedu qribhom ghax tghidx kemm jitghallmu vokabularju sabih.
Nispera li ma johrogx jiddefendijom u jghid li kienu provokati. Qisni qed nistenna xi haga hekk.
They aren’t in your opinion? That’s y this blog started in the first place
“Swieqi guy fined 500 euros over facebook comment.”
Bitch please. You should be fined with paying all of Malta’s debt.
Inti bis-serjeta hi???? Mintoff gid kbir ghamel ghal Malta. Tigi tghid li hu ‘hateful’ u fuq kollox huwa kien jghid ‘Malta l-ewwel u qabel kollox.’ Jien nahseb int hateful mhux hu. Jekk inti ma tahmlux, zomma ghalik. Missek tisthi malli miet gejja taghmel dan il-blog fuqu! Int monstru! Tigi tghid hekk fl-istess gurnata li miet!
You Bitch!
Jekk int ma taqbilx ma Daphne, imissek zammejta ghalik.
Wisq aktar difficli taghmel dak li tippritka lill haddiehor, hux?
Daphne,
Can I ask you one simple question…..do you have a father or you are adopted?
Mhux ahjar tiehu hsibt familtek. Ahjar tara xinu addej go hajtek l-ewwel foxx ommok ja qahba li mxenqa al zobb ax dak il mejjet li andek ma jserhekx.
Why is it that all of a sudden Mintoffians have become so mealy-mouthed when commenting about the dead?
Wow, reading some of the comments makes me thank Zeus that I left this country a decade ago.
It’s ironic that the hate-spewers commenting are a direct legacy of Mintoff’s time; this is what he wanted to create and he managed it brilliantly.
To think that the same people will probably be in power very soon makes me shudder, just for the fact that my elderly parents are in Malta and live in fear of what will happen.
What I do find amusing are all the references to ‘hell, devils , lakes of fire’ and so on. Mediaeval superstition still rules with an iron fist in ‘christian’ Malta.
vera mara bla qalb int u tidher li ma mortx skola
Veru ta w lanqas biss ma kienet fil-Brigata ghax kieku kienet titghallem bhalek u bhal dawk li qed jiktbu favur Mintoff meta anqas biss ma jafuh jew ghexu fi zmienu fil-gvern!
Milli nista nara mill-kitba mfarrka bl-Ingliz u bil-Malti, u mill-kliem oxxen u bit-theddid, Mintoff kien il-pilastru ta l-edukazjoni f’Malta. Dnub li xi gharef ma kitibx bl-Gharbi li fi zmienu kont trid tistudjah bilfors.
Hasra ghal Daphne.
So, did anyone else watch the United match last night? Fergie totally should have brought on Van Persie before.
Oh wait, wrong blog. Bad Daphne, bad, you should be ashamed.
But seriously, Van Persie should have started the match.
I know I shouldn’t say this, but as a Liverpool fan I feel a bit better after last night.
Of course you do. Perfect tonic after a 3-0 bashing. Hopes for this season? (I was thinking United, much to my dismay, will finish 2nd or 3rd).
qieghed nithassar lil dawk in nies li qeghdin jaqblu maghha u lil dawk li jghixu madwara….tista tkun labour u nazzjonalista.. ma titkellimx hekk fuq ragel mejjet.. anka Gonzi wera rispett lejh ax se jamillu funeral statali…IVA DAPHNE IL KAP TIEGHEK SE JAMILLU FUNERAL STATALI!!

Daphne you despicable piece of shit how dare you write those hatefull words about someone who just died and about a person who did such great things for Malta and its people.
God must have been in a really bad mood when he made you not only do you look ugly but your character is evil,sadistic and vile.Hope you get your come uppance one day.I will sit back and enjoy champagne on that glorious day.Go to hell YOU ugly bitch.
You are free to kiss Mintoff’s arse and everyone else is free to laugh at you for doing so. That’s the difference between then and now, Sharon. You can say what you wish, but so can everyone else. If the truth hurts, then you’ve only yourself to blame. Your rotten hero’s gone. Raise your standards before you choose your next one.
MELA: l-ewwel kien ‘SALVATUR,’ imbghad ‘TRADITUR’ u issa ? ‘BEATU’.

Umbaghad biex tkompli turi kemm m’ghandekx idea kif tiehu gost fil-hajja tghid “How very considerate of Mr Mintoff to make this one of my best birthdays ever”. Biex tasal tgawdi l-aqwa birthday tieghek b’mewt ta xi hadd, jew trid tkun imxajtna, jew ma nafx!!!
Don’t you have other hobbies in life Ms Caruana Galizia, rather than writing this shit?? Imqar taghmel sena idur mieghek innifsek forsi xi darba nkun nista ninduna mal-ewwel jekk intix mara jew ragel…. jew tibda tmur il-gym forsi tnehhi dik l-ixkaffa ta wara li ghandek…
Hope I have your reply dear

Go back to playing with your toys kid :)
Fuck you bitch like daphne
Inzertajtu int u daphne tafu tilanghu bit toys , dawk tal lastiku !
dear daphne
will you please tell me what have mintoff ever done to you??
from your speach i see you hated him and still hate him very much,well im realy looking foward to see what he done to you and your near 1.
When you ask, ” what have mintoff ever done to you??”, you have to address it in plural – to ALL of Malta who lived in his era. The difference is that half were brainwashed and the other half saw things as they REALLY were and not what the ‘leader’ wanted them to see.
It takes brains to distinguish between logic and defective decisions as taken by him. Unfortunately the brainless half have since reproduced and handed down their genes to those who still think that Mintoff was some kind of a genius even if they never knew him.
Angus black, for that i am asking what he ever done wrong?Im 22years old.i still wasent born till he was the ruler of Malta.can you please tell me some?
and I asked to DCG what he done to her seence i see so much hate in he s confront,
but umperently as i see she answers only the people that she want to make fun of only.
regards all
p.s waiting your reply DCG
[Daphne – THE MALTESE EDUCATION SYSTEM HAS FAILED.]
issa jekk hawn xi hadd RAGEL jew MARA nistiednu jaghmel dak li ktibtu xi ftit zmien ilu fuq din il-pagna b’referenza ghall-qabar ta’ MINTOFF ha naraw kemm intom tal-kelma, specjalment int DAPHNE nistiednek tmur taghmel dak li ktibt.
Calm down people! Let her write what she wants because this is a free country! If you don’t like her blog don’t read it!
she just have to be ashamed of herself. This is not a blog, din paġna ta’ valenu li qed tgħamel ħsara lill-partit tagħna stess.
Sofie (Sophie?) quit referring to the PN as ‘your Party’.
X’inhu n-numru tat-tessera tieghek?
I fully agree with you Daphne! May he rot in hell.
These idiots are speaking like this because they were the ones who in their own ignorance ‘benefitted’ under Mintoff’s regime whilst the other people suffered. Ask people with businesses if they would speak like this about Mintoff today.
K
how would you feel if a member of your family died and others told you ”may he rot in hell!!” ???
[Daphne – I wouldn’t bother. I’ve been fielding insults since the age of 25, even if I cared what others who I don’t care about think, in the first place. Also, nobody would have any reason to say that. No member of my family did what Mintoff did. They only had it done to them.]
your comment proves you have an empty space where your heart is supposed to be!!! wow you must live a very sad and lonely life!!!!
Mhux ghalhekk indanata, ghax ilhom jaqlawlek fuq kemm int mafga minn mindu kont zghira!!! Well, from your appearance, 25 nahseb ilek li alaqthom sew!!! so that must be ages ago bitch!!!
Hey Daph, just a short note to honestly thank you for voicing the real truth on this great day.
Thousands of hurt Maltese who suffered horrendous acts under his dictatorship don’t have the guts to talk freely about this moment. They are still scared of the unchangeable CORMA Mintoffjana who again confirm their barbaric nature through their comments here. God have mercy on us when they are back to govern.
Excuse Mr Ed edd n edy ( just your nick name shows how childish you are but thats bedsides the point) The barbaics here are ur beloved deaphne and people like you who are celebrating the death of a person.
I wish to meet the thousands of people who suffered under Mintoff because as far as i know all he did was give people their rights and not let them remain in misery.
Dear Mary, check out 1981/87 election results and you will easily get your answer in what rights he really gave.
nithasrek.
Do you get bonus and children’s allowance to start with? Do your children get education for free (if still so under pn)? Does yr mum or dad get pension (s’issa)?
Din bis-serjeta jew!!
Bniedma bla qalb u kuxjenza – Ara pajjiz li jhalli dan it tip ta nies jinfluwenzaw lil haddiehor.
Mela sewwa meta xi hadd jikteb fuq il papa jghadduh guri u lil din l-imxajtna hadd ma jghidilha xejn!
Haga wahda ftakar li min jixtieq deni lil garu jigih f daru!!
RIP Dear DOM!!
Jaaaaaaaa hadra lint u foxx demmek jira alla joqtlok fiz zmien gimgha -.- mur hudu foxx il partit tieghek ma nafx kif iz zobb dahluk man nazjonalisti… bilhaqq partit taz zibel ghalekk dahluk
ALLELUIAH META TMUT INT DAPHNE U AQTA KEMM IKOLLOK NIES IL FURENAL JOBSQULEK FIT TEBUT TIEGHEK!!
Kemm hallas sa issa it-tax payer Malti fl edukazzjoni tieghek, biex irnexxilek tikteb dan l’gherf kollhu?
Daphne
ghandek kull dritt ma taqbilx ma fehma ta bniedem. min qed joffendik lura m’hu qed juri xejn hlief kemm hu pastaz. Pero li tifrah ghax miet bniedem juri kemm inti mara bla qalb u pastaza! Possibli hadd m’ghalmek xi jfissru kliem bhal; rispett u dinjita?? Imissek tisthi tikteb dawk il-kliem fuq bniedem li ghamel tant gid ghal pajjiz u li fuq kollox issa huwa mejjet!! TURI KEMM INTI MARA MHUX BILL TIKTEB DAN L’IMBARAZZ FUQ MINTOFF IMMA BILLI TITLOB APOLOGIJA LIL FAMILJA TIEGHU li min jaf bhalissa min xiex inuma addejjin!!
Ok prosit.. kulhadd fehem li ma kontx tista ghalih.. pero possibli tasal li tikteb hekk fuq xi hadd li jkun ghadu kif miet? tkun min tkun il persuna! seta kien xi hadd li ghamel ghomru il habs! ghax xorta nies normali ma jaslux li jitkelmu b’tali mod fuq xi hadd li jkun ghadu kif miet.. jew alinqas zomma ghalik.. ghax nghiduha kif inhi.. 80% tar raguni li ktibt dal blog biex izzid il popolarita tieghek li btw m’ghandekx bzonn ghax kulhadd jaf x’int. clearly ghandek problemi mentali, skuzani, hu azzjoni. apparti li mhux sew li wiehed jitkellem b’dan il mod fuq xi hadd li miet, xi nghidu ghar rispett lejn il familjari tieghu? kieku int ma thossx kieku xi hadd jitkeb hekk fuq missierek, nannuk, zijuk? ghamel pjacir lilek innifsek b’mod specjali u hassar dak li ktibt u kun mara u skuza ruhek ma qrabatu u ma malta.
I don’t really care what Mintoff did… but seriously Daphne you fell to a worst level possible by insulting a dead person
So are Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Caucescu, Kim il Sung, Saddam, Gaddafi et al, very much dead. Do you think, for one moment that millions did not celebrate when the monsters croaked – or were killed?
Generally, they kept quiet because in their countries there was no ‘freedom of speech’ and communications were nowhere where today’s. There was no Internet, no Facebook, no Twitter etc. otherwise the true feelings would have come out loud and clear.
Mintoff can now join the illustrious company who left this world before him.
