Oh yes, I forgot to bring this up earlier

So Reno Bugeja asked John Dalli, on Dissett last night, why he didn’t ring the prime minister immediately he came out of his ‘forced resignation’ meeting with the President of the European Commission.

“The prime minister called me himself after the meeting, but I missed his call because I didn’t have my phone with me at the time,” the fibber said.

If he didn’t have his phone with him at the time, how did he ring the Labour leader?

Maybe he has two phones.

    It is normal for shady types to have two phones.

    • Uninterested Bystander says:

      Well I have 6 …………….. well shady.

      But you can have one for work and one for private – you turn the work one off at 5pm.

  2. Uninterested Bystander says:

    All this tittle-tattle is making me feel like me granny gossiping all day.

    Hope we hear from the police soon.

    Mhux ovvja? M’ghandux wiehed minn dawk il-mobiles li jdoqq anke meta jkun mitfi.

    This is not tittle-tattle. This is a list of Dalli’s lies.

  5. canon says:

    John Dalli might have a dual mobile phone. One phone with two different numbers.

  6. Bubu says:

    He might have borrowed Franco Debono’s.

  7. cobweb says:

    Maybe he left his phone behind in Barroso’s office.

  8. Angus Black says:

    No wonder I don’t like modern technology, because how does one begin to explain that Franco Debono has one phone which rings even when switched off and Dalli has two phones and neither rings?

    One must be made in Sweden, the other in Libya?

    If he were called Pinocchio his nose would reach all the way from Brussels to Malta.

  10. FP says:

    So what if he has two phones, or a phone with two SIMs?

    The fact is that he CHOSE not to phone the PM from the same phone that he used to phone Joseph Muscat, whichever phone that was.

  11. Joseph Vassallo says:

    The fact is that if he had a phone with him, which I am sure he did, he could have phoned the PM.

    However, he did NOT want to phone the PM because he doesn’t give a damn about him.

    He only phoned his family and Joseph Muscat. I believe what he said there.

    He probably misled the viewers on why he did not speak to Gonzi. He could have called him but he didn’t.

  13. Lord Lucan says:

    The great things about mobile phones is that they leave a trace on the position at any given time of every specific phone and sim card.

    The sim card leaves what is known as an IMSI trace while the phone leaves what is know as an IMEI trace.

    If the phone company is asked to check the records of February 10th for John Dalli’s phone they will be able to determine by triangulation from the base stations where he was at any time that day.

    The same can be done for the phones of the Lawyer and imqaret seller. If they are all proven to have been in the same location it’s case closed.

    Unfortunately J. Dalli BA was the MALTESE commissioner, and his behaviour before and since this has come to light reflects on ALL Maltese.

    Yes folks, his shenanigans tar us all with the same brush. The long and short of it is that he should have contacted the Prime Minister FIRST, BEFORE smug Joseph and even before his family.

    That he did not contact the PM at all is indicative of his contempt for the Office of the Prime Minister.

    So as a Maltese who is embarrassed by you, here is one raspberry expressing my contempt coming your way, Johnny Boy

  15. francesco says:

    Most probably he thinks OLAF knows only about one. The one he switches off at 5pm.

  16. Angus Black says:

    I suppose Reno Bugeja is far too busy to read this blog or to find the time to explain his elusive questioning of Dalli on his programme.

    The programme must have elated the Labour Party which publicly keeps a safe distance from Dalligate, but behind the scenes fans the fires which ultimately will burn Dalli.
