I note with interest your comment “I would love to be able to use my name on this website. But I’m damn scared to do so because I know that Joseph’s approach to life as Prime Minister won’t be much different to Dom’s”. You are right to be afraid. Be very afraid.

From my personal experience of Joseph Muscat, and I mean personal face to face, not what I read in newspapers or watch on TV, he is not the man he projects himself to be.

He pretends to be one thing but behaves as another.

In my opinion he is not a statesman and not the leader that Malta deserves. Make of that what you will, but be warned.

And the one after it:

MINTOFF MISSIER IL-KNISJA MALTIJA.

Typical mentality:

When sons and daughters do not leave home because they are getting married but simply because they are mature and independent enough to be able to live on their own, they are abandoning their parents.

Ma, x’injoranza ta’ nies.

Yes, you are probably right.

However I do not think “blood” is the point.

The point is that these people who are my age and suffered as much as I did during the Mintoff days should know better than to post “Sahha Perit, you will be missed!”

Whether they are being hypocrites now or were putting on a mask at the front line of NP mass meetings in the eighties, the point is they are still double faced opportunists.

I think you’re confusing ‘guts and openness’ with obnoxiousness and rudeness …..not to mention the fact that she is abusing her right to freedom of speech by being disrespectful .

[Daphne – Yes, Laburisti tend to think that way. They still can’t come to terms with freedom of speech.]

You clearly don’t know your history. Mintoff remained a catholic even after everything he had to go through because of the Church. He comes from a very religious family and was religious himself.

@ Silvio Let us remember him for the LOVE he had for MONEY

Also, you would have been punished harshly for throwing a plate at your husband, should it not have been for Mintoff earning women more rights.

oh sorry then ! I have no doubt who Peter F !
