Revolutions and coups d’état are out of fashion, and we’d have to go through the meat grinder of elections.

And we’d lose. Big time.

Who would vote for us? Scientists estimate that PN’s core vote is 39%. Labour’s is 45%. That leaves a voter pool of just 16%. Among them, many are more than satisfied with the ballot-sheet offer, and would never vote for a third party. I mean you only have to look at AD’s disastrous results.

If only, melissa. If only this was 1642 and I had half a dozen brave men and carte blanche. THEN political beliefs would be worth something. But this? Setting up a party knowing that we’ll never be in power?

This Saturday night is one of my worst ever.

So Baxxter, do we start a political party? Or would that just be a waste considering you’re right when you say:

‘Our leaders satisfy our standards. And those standards are crap.’

If it was a conspiracy, why didn’t they ask Kev ta’ Sharon No2EU to investigate in place of Kessler?

Kev is a resident of Brussels, and he is an expert in global conspiracies.

Maltese politics is littered with these so-called canvassers and political fixers who are in the game for nothing other than personal gain.

There are many others I can think of who are a no better than Silvio. Trust a circus organiser to make a clown of himself.

I will answer you, but I must ask you to take me seriously. This blog may be a mere pastime for some, but for me it is the only outlet for airing my views.

Yes, there are half a dozen bright intellects here with enough grey matter to run the country. For all I know, some of them may actually be up there in corridors of power. But one thing I’ll tell you: our current leaders are unfit for purpose. I’ve been saying this for ages. It’s all about intelligence. Never mind integrity. That usually comes with leadership if the leader is intelligent enough.

For years now – since independence in fact – we’ve seen a disastrous erosion of our national quality standards. In all fields. From spelling, to physique, to dress, to manners, to language, to thinking skills, to culture, to aesthetics. I thought it would slowly start to change after EU membership, but it hasn’t. Because we don’t know better. Our leaders satisfy our standards. And those standards are crap. But we’re so blinded by patriotism we can’t even see how ridiculously crap we are.

So what can I say? Like an idiot, I will vote PN yet again because the alternative is too terrible to contemplate. But in my heart, I despise the rabble that is leading us. And if any of them should ring my doorbell asking for my vote, I’ll send them all to hell.

Anna Caruana, Silvio Zammit represented the PN on the oh-so-important Sliema Local Council. On the other hand, he represented Dalli when dealing with a major international corporation (at least one that we know about)

Don’t you see the difference?

There is enough talent on this blog to run the entire country and all levels of administration.

Hux vera Baxxter?

I think Kessler had conspiracy in mind – but given his background as a Mafia investigator he must have opted for caution.

And probably he was right. You should never overdo it, or else the entire edifice of the institution crumbles down. And the public – which is not made up of technocrats and expert lawyers – will not understand the nuances and will lose all faith in the European project.

But for me it’s as clear as daylight: conspiracy to commit a crime, almost an associazione a delinquere.

Sidor.
