Issa sejjer l-Ewropa ha jkompli iwaqqana ghan nejk.

Pero’ nahseb ghandu cans li jaghmel xi kapolavur iehor jekk intihom xi hjil biex inehhu il-VAT u jivvinta xi froga ohra hu bhal ma’ kien ghamel f’Malta.

Jew jispjegaljom kif meta wiehed jitlef referendum ikun rebah.

… u vera pudina gejja!

Irgiel fuq irgiel ma jnehhux taxxa ta 18% u jaqlibuha f’wahda ta 23%, jew jintaxxa c-certifikati tat-tobba, jgholli t-tariffi tad-dawl u l-ilma m’gholha s-sema meta l-prezz taz-zejt kien $12 il-barmil.
L-irgiel m’ghandhomx irjus taz-zonqor ghax fl-ahhar mill-ahhar isibu min ikissirilhom bhal ma ghamillu Mintoff.
Meta jsir MEP, siehbek ‘ir-ragel fuq l-irgiel’ se jkollu hin iktar biex jikteb ir-rumanzi bhal ma Joseph (kien qal) kiteb ‘roadmep’ ta 15 il-sena waqt li kien qed jithallas ta MEP u li s’issa ghadna qatt ma rajna. L-anqas programm elettorali ma kien kapaci jfassal ghax l-ewwel ‘kien qed jinkiteb’ imbaghad ‘lest’, u wara ‘qed nircievu idejat godda’ w d-diska ghadha taghqad.
Il-Laburisti stess ma jistghux jifhmu l-ghala ir-ragel Jowzef qed jahbi l-pjan li ghandu biex irahhas id-dawl minghajr ma jgholli t-taxxi. Imma l-imzazen xorta jivvutawlu ghax mhux kapaci jghoddu n-numri w jindunaw kemm hi haga impossibbli jekk ma jaqtax servizzi bazici fil-kamp tas-sahha kif ukoll ta l-edukazzjoni.

Dr Tonio Borg spoke on TV to a very wide audience and was applauded. He called the European Socialists’ bluff by giving a signed document that confirmed what he had said in the hearing of everybody interested. And yet we stll hear from some decerebrate or blindfolded individuals the silly lie that Dr Tonio had changed his mind, that he had humiliated himself when the truth is that he humiliated and annihiliated the opposition.

Can’t Sant ask Joseph (Hu Emanuel) Cuschieri to relinquish his seat in the EP in favour of Sant?

‘Hu Emanuel’ Cuschieri shouldn’t find this too hard – he’s given up a parliamentary seat before.

Your point being, Eddy Privitera?

Better than watching and listening to Joseph.

Xi dwejjaq fik, Sur Privitera. Oqghod attent illi ma itikx xi attak ta’ qalb bl-ecitament jekk jitighu tal-Labour. Zomm kalm.

Times change and we all have to do likewise.

Ask Dr. Tonio, who changed his mind on so many of his principles.

[Daphne – He didn’t. Wasn’t this what all the fuss was about?]
