My, what exciting news
Malta Today – the newspaper with a hotline to Labour – has broken the news that Jason Micallef will stand for election.
This is in outright defiance to his Great Leader’s wishes, which kind of makes me wonder what sort of leverage Jason used to get his way.
And the deput mexxej – the one who shaved his moustache off, not the other one who clings to it still – is almost certainly on the warpath. Two big Labour names – Anglu d-deputat mexxej u Jason l-eks segretarju generali – fighting it out for votes in the constituency where I live and vote.
And not one of them has rung my doorbell so far, or come in for a slice of cake and a G & T. Shame.
Can you imagine the fall-out when he’s elected to parliament – and believe me, he will be – and Joseph doesn’t stick him in his cabinet as Ministru Ghal Xandir u Medja?

He will be elected.

As Varist himself is fond of saying, plus ca change…
If Jason Micallef gets even one vote more than Anglu Farrugia, he will declare himself deputy prime minister.
Not if Franco Debono MP, PL can help it!
Sadly (for everyone, including the PL), he will probably be elected.
Haha- I can see Jason having a G & T but Anglu Farrugia?
Was Jase really punched in the face during the 2008 election, as it became clear that the PN had retained power on that fateful Sunday evening?
The story was that a well known car dealer had bet some property, or his business on a MLP victory, on the strength of a guarantee from Micallef – no doubt based on scientific fact and voting statistics….
This happens in all parties.
Isn’t the P.N. fieldung Mr.A.Fenech to the detriment of Rob.Arrigo.
[Daphne – Silvio, if Albert Fenech were not fielded, it would be to the detriment of the electorate. If some MPs believe they are running fiefdoms, that’s their problem. They are there to serve us, not the other way round.]
I would imagine Jason would bring Ronnie with him on his home visits. Just remember to set the dogs on them.
Did I read somewhere that the great leader has returned from his wine-tasting trip vowing that Jason King was toast, or was it a dream?
If it was indeed written, and it was true, this would mean that Jason has somehow got the poodle by his short and curlies. Which means that we may very well have a mark2 Lorry to look forward to.
Jason Micallef PM – perish the thought.
Can I have the G&T instead of Jason?
[Daphne – Gordon’s or Tanqueray? And if you’re feeling blue, there’s Bombay Sapphire.]
Hendrick’s. With a slice of cucumber.
[Daphne – I’m afraid I’m out of that. But I have a bottle of really excellent Sipsmith sloe gin. Not right for a G & T, but heaven with heaps of ice. I shall pour one right now as compensation for having to write tomorrow’s column and water the garden instead of going to the beach.]
Never mind. It’s the company that counts.
MLP supporters think highly of Jason Micallef and without sweat he will be in Parliament. Let the show begin!
