Why do you need to box me in ,Norman Lowel, that s really perceptive.

When exactly did I praise labour or Joseph Muscat?

Maybe someone should open that can of worms. I for one would love to know the truth for once..

I use my name because, frankly scarlet I don t give a damn

[Daphne – That’s a man’s line, Anna, not a woman’s (hence the Scarlett).]

Yes. That’s him.

He was seated prominently at Mintoff’s state funeral, and walked next to Jason Micallef in the procession of mourners. During the last MEPs election he attacked and injured a Nationalist supporter in Zejtun. He was prosecuted and the case is still pending.

[Daphne – Exactly. They were the Maltese mafia, led by Labour ministers and protected by the prime minister. It was beyond horrendous. No wonder the current generation of new Mintoffjani can’t even begin to get their heads around the facts and think we’re lying.]

Ironically Daphne your Mintoff mentality of Jekk mhux maghna kontra taghna prevails you re assumming that I voted labour because I have a different opinion than yours.

[Daphne – Oh, so what are you, Anna, with your anti-PN views and your constant attacks on MY political views? AD, Norman Lowell, what? You come here to praise Labour and attack the Nationalist Party, so forgive me if I was mistaken in drawing the conclusion that you’re gearing up to vote for Joseph. At least you have the decency to use your own name, I’ll give you that.]

I m certain you believe the story of (messing about with his wife. )

[Daphne – It was his daughter, too, it turns out, and not just his wife. Yes, of course I believe it. I grew up in that part of Sliema where Il-Fusella headquartered himself. He was a permanent fixture of our life in the same way that the Zejtun thugs were for the people of Zejtun. He used sex and sexual assault to assert his dominance and authority. He made passes at girls in nightclubs and once pulled off a girl’s top on the dancefloor when she spurned him. Ma kienx jista jara dublett, and it wasn’t necessarily because he particularly fancied them either. What I remember most about him, actually, is that he was one of those short men who tried to make himself taller by standing ramrod straight and raising his shoulders and chin.]

I do remember Mifsud and believe me my heart went out to that boy when it happened.

What I would like to know is why the PN didn’t prosecute those responsible in 20 years in government.

[Daphne – The answer is that Eddie Fenech Adami made absolutely the wrong choice of minister for the police in the first instance. You can’t put a criminal lawyer in charge of the police. It just doesn’t work, and it didn’t work. I can’t say more than that without opening up an entire can of worms that has no resolution at this stage.]

Thugs are thugs whether they send bombs or shoot people.

The difference between you and I is that I call a spade a spade and you re still saying THEM which seems to always cloud your judgement.

[Daphne – You can accuse me of many things but certainly not of refusing or being unable to call a spade a spade, Anna. And I say ‘them’ because that is exactly what they are to me. And face it, THEY regard me as IT.]

Basically, they just wanted to avoid a trial and kill him like he killed their man Fusellu.

When Bartolo did eventually stand for trial, he was acquitted on grounds of self-defence. Fusellu had tried to kill him before he was killed himself.

Fusellu’s participation in the gross income was a condition of all permits for such commercial activities.

When he died people who worked at the Preluna were relieved.

They were scared of him; he picked fights for nothing.
