Franco hates Jeffrey, Jeffrey hates Franco, and they both hate everyone else

Published: October 5, 2012 at 2:17am

Did you clock Debono’s and Pullicino Orlando’s body language as they were obliged to sit next to each other at the meeting of the House Business Committee earlier?

The television cameras picked up Pullicino Orlando’s extreme distress at being lumped with Debono. Had he been able to wear a T-shirt saying ‘No, I’m NOT with stupid’, he would have.

As for Debono…

He uses his phone even during a meeting of the House Business Committee, of which he is not a member and where he is on sufferance. Forsi kien qed jaghti paris lil Obama kontra Romney.

The lovely pair – and the one on the right is going to seed already. It didn’t take long, did it.

    Both Jeffrey and Franco are doing a disservice to the country.

    They are creating instability for no reason at all.

    They are not doing so because there is some crisis in the country. We do not have the problems Spain, Greece, Italy and other countries have! But they still chose to create a crises for all the wrong reasons.

    I hope the PN will explain to the electorate why they have done so during the campaign.

  7. ta' sapienza says:

    Love the way the One news presenter last night kept referring to him as JAAfrey Pullicino Orlando.

  8. Lestrade says:

    “The lovely pair ” : More like “The Odd Couple ” (Sixties TV series) .

  9. David S says:

    St Aloysius manners ?

    • Grezz says:

      Manners are generally picked up at home, which is why so many have none, including people “li minghalihom li lahqu xi haga”.

    U kif telqitlu xaghru f’jumejn lil Franco u isu qed jintefah ukoll.

    Dan kollu it-tort tieghek, Daphne, u se jibqa fuq il-kuxjenza tieghek. Imissek tisthi : )

    Keep them coming, Daphne.

  11. Jozef says:

    As Tonio Borg succintly put it yesterday, it will be up to them, and only them, to explain why IVF and cohabitation had to make way for parking.

    If Austin rocks, Tonio’s acid jazz.

    • maryanne says:

      Austin Gatt has offered to resign should JPO and Debono resign their parliamentary seat. However take a look at the following statement:

      “Such calls are farcical and reflect Minister Gatt’s shallowness,” Pullicino Orlando said. “It wasn’t Austin Gatt who elected me to parliament but the electorate and that is where my loyalty stands,” he said.”

      Where’s the logic in this? The electorate who elected JPO did so on a PN electoral programme and on a PN ticket. Those who voted for him surely did not want him to take the course of action we all know he took.

      JPO, Franco Debono and Jesmond Mugliett should have all resigned the minute they did not feel comfortable with the present administration. Come election time, the elecorate would have been able to take its own decision.

      • Jozef says:

        They think they’re in Italy. MP’s and senators are, according to the constitution, ‘servitori del popolo’. But then, the idea is to preempt any totalitarian tendency a party might have.

        The parties got around it by removing voter preference, voting for the party instead, mp’s nominated by the respective leaders.

        And anyway, he didn’t tell him he should resign, just whether JPO would like to join him, shock horror on Maltatoday.

      • H.P. Baxxter says:

        I’m about to go off on one of my rants against Maltese brains wired like lawyers’.

        Just because the MP’s seat belongs to the MP and not the party doesn’t give MPs free rein once they’re elected.

        In the grand scheme of things, when the universe was created and all, logic was placed far above legalistic readings of the constitution. And logic says that if the electorate elects the MP on a party ticket, it expects the MP to follow the party line.

        Or it might as well elect an independent candidate whose electoral manifesto consists of five words: I do as I please.

    Desperate times, Daphne? Wave goodbye to Austin anyway.

    [Daphne – He is retiring from electoral politics in any case. He made that announcement some time ago. That’s why all of this is so very unnecessary. Goodbye Austin Gatt, hello Luciano Busuttil. Great going.]

    • Daphne, really ! Are you equating Austin “ghamilna pipi ” Gatt’s arrogance and bad manners – which you like -, with Dr. Luciano Busuttil’s ? You must be joking.

      Anyway, as the old saying goes ” Birds of a feather, flock together “.

    • Austin Gatt is retiring because he doesn’t want to sit on the opposition benches. But will still be calling the shots , together with RCC, but hidden from view !

      The Clique of Evil has a stranglehold on GonziPN !

  13. Eldarion says:

    We don’t know if Labour is going to be in government, anything can happen.

    I just hope that who ever replaces Austin “Failure” Gatt in the PN will do a much better job than he did. Frankly, I don’t give a damn who the LP or PL or whatever they’re known as, employ.

    [Daphne – A truly responsible citizen. The right to vote is wasted on such as you.]

  14. ciccio says:

    Now that we are discussing same sex marriages, maybe the second pic above inspires those at Bla Kondixin, perhaps after Franco obtains a divorce from Daphne and JPOS from his missus.

  15. Eldarion says:

    Of course, just because I don’t agree with your PN fanaticism (which is so 20th century) you obviously come to the conclusion that the right to vote is wasted on me.Daphne, you’re no different to the mintoffian’s.

    [Daphne – No. I came to that conclusion on the basis of what you said: that you don’t care who the ministers will be under Labour. Ministers run the country. If you don’t care who they are going to be, then the right to vote is wasted on you. A keen interest in politics is not ‘so last century’. It is normal in thinking persons – everywhere. Lack of interest in politics is a sign of disengagement and/or ignorance and is nothing to be proud of. ]

    • Eldarion says:

      You obviously have trouble reading. What I said was, we don’t know IF Labour will be in government for all we know they might implode at some point. Of course I care who the ministers are, which is why I don’t accept Austin Gatt’s disaster’s (BWSC, Transport Reform). I would love it we had more people like Albert Fenech, Simon Busuttil and Therese Comodini Cachia. Just please spare us from people like Austin Gatt, Manuel Delia and Claudio Grech.

    • But for you Daphne, politics means just one thing: GonziPN and no one else !

  16. Dee says:

    Lord Earl Grey seems to have aged 10 years since he tied the new knot.

  17. La Redoute says:

    Jeffrey Pullicino looks like a village matron, complete with the appropriate haircut.

    [Daphne – Ah, but the village matrons dye theirs plum. Age and distress are taking their toll. He’s about to discover the meaning of ‘short and squat’.]

  18. Aunt Hetty says:

    JPOS was looking for snails in Mistra (for some cheap snail stew.We all know just how expensive gbejniet are right now) He found a lantern wedged in between two rather largish stones at the foot of a hajt tas-sejjieh.He started to rub it when out popped a genie.

    “Oh goodie, now I will get three wishes!”,he exclaimed.

    “No”, said the genie, “You have been very bad this year, and because of this, I can only give you one wish.”

    “Lets see,” says Jef, “I don’t need fame, because I have plenty of that due to all of the media coverage..”

    “And I don’t need money, because with all the botoxing , and interviews on ONE media and the permit Joe promised, I’ll have all the money I could ever want…”

    “I would like to get rid of these flabby love handles, though. Yeah, that’s it,for my one wish, I would like my love handles removed.”

    Poof, and just like that, his ears were gone.

  19. Aunt Hetty says:

    Why is Franco Debono like a government bond?

    He is taking far too long to mature.

  20. Aunt Hetty says:

    Jeff drinks his warm tea
    ”whossh ixx dxx xxhit nexsht to me?”
    oppppppssssh, who spiked me drink?

  21. Jozef says:

    Anglu Farrugia tried to explain the procedural motion mechanism on Bondi+. His head nearly exploded.

  22. Busufu says:

    No, his girlfriend phoned to inform him that he’d better choose between her and our heroine.

  23. David Meilak says:

    Two losers.

  24. H.P. Baxxter says:

    Just noticed something. You get these shots in Malta where everyone in the photo is overweight. Fascinating.
