No, who cares about the gun. He doesn’t need to be packing heat to be hot.

As I said, I hadn’t noticed it until someone mentioned it (admittedly they mentioned that Muscat doesn’t need a gun to be dangerous).

Daphne gave the guys some Labour trash with plastic titties and us gals the stuff of dreams.

Thank you, Daphne.

[Daphne – I see. The gun made all the difference, eh? Hmmmm.]

Truth be told, I thought Gonzi was the other extreme, with his bus driver shirt. At least it’s wasn’t a polo shirt tal-pony.

Say the fashion police who’ve never been to a PL mass meeting?

Can you confirm this? Because if it is, it’s explosive stuff. Where THE FUCK is the press?

No he wouldn’t. The way to create more jobs is to stimulate economic growth, not disrupt existing working relationships by redistributing the same jobs to different people. Labour’s already tried that and it infamously didn’t work.

That would be the Department of Citizenship and Expatriate Affairs at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. And you’re right, it’s pissed off many non-EU expats.

Well, at a recent business breakfast JM had with retailers, somebody remarked that small retailers are losing lots of business to online trading. Guess what he promised: that he would stop access from Malta to international online trading sites (such as ebay, play.com and so on).

Some actually liked the idea.

My friend (who was present) was disgusted. Sadly, nobody recorded him.

I think that Craig is the best 007 by a long chalk. George Lazenby second.

Remaining actors in order of “faithfulness” to Fleming’s novels:
Brosnan
Dalton
Connery
Moore

Muscat has the “cunning” feel all of the above lack, so the comparison holds.

I think.

[Daphne – What is the common factor to all the Bonds above? Sex appeal and sophistication. So you can count Muscat out. He has neither, and never will. The first can’t be acquired or learned, and it’s now way too late for the second. Oh, and I should have mentioned a handsome face, good figure and innate elegance, too. Sorry about that.]
