PATHETIC. You have to be nuts to want to put these three in charge of the economy.

They don’t know whether they’re coming or going. It’s Sant and CET all over again, but this time, with everything.

Tbazwar l’hemm u tbazwar l’hawn… tiftakruh lil Fredu Sant?
If this is the best Malta has to offer, we are seriously fucked.
These people are going to kill me with laughter in the years to come.
Laughter?
C.Portelli,
unfortunately, they will kill you with taxes… but not laughter!
Mela nlestu ruhna ghal-froga.
Nahseb li l-froga gejja jew nejja jew mahruqa , ghax dawn ilhom ma jkunu fil-kcina.
Was the culinary analogy a Freudian slip for cooking the books?
This should be a lesson to all those who think a spell in opposition is the equivalent of the Rocky training montage after the fight with Clubber Lang.
Cooking lessons from the PL? You should get them to do a spread in Taste.
Three cooks Edward, Karmenu and Charles led by their chief cook Joseph ready, if given the chance, to make the biggest hotchpotch of Malta and Gozo
Yep, George, in Maltese we call it ‘kawlata’.
It seems to me that they have four different roadmaps.
There you have it. Il PN jghamillek platt tajjeb u l-MPL jghamillek froga, u il probabilita hi li jghamilha bil bajd taghna.
Quite. There are those who’d cut off their nose to spite their face. It seems that in Malta we’ll go one better… make it two.
Cue the high pitched whines when Labour mess up the economy.
As for those who believe “they can’t possibly be that bad… kemm jistghu jaghmlu hsara?”, I’d ask them to remove their heads from their arse and spend a few minutes online.
Just effin’ Google about the following countries, whose economies were praised and lauded right up till they crashed and burned within a few months (not years): Ireland, Spain, Cyprus , Iceland…
It is patently obvious that these idiots make up everything they talk about, and that includes the Great Leader.
There are no plans. There never were.
The one single “plan” they have is to promise anything to anyone to win votes to take over government.
Everyone seems to have forgotten that being in government only takes votes which any village idiot is willing to offer. But to GOVERN, you need brains and expertise, the very things that this lot is utterly deprived of.
Hold on to your seats, guys. We’re in for a very rough and lengthy ride.
And the ride to right things after we manage to throw the Moviment back into the rubbish bin where they belong will be rougher and lengthier still.
I wish there was a god that could override this madness that is about to be expressed by the people in the coming general election.
For that’s where corrupt power lies: in the hands of the people.
Good old Churchill painted the whole picture most accurately in one simple sentence: The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.
He’s on “Affari Taghna”, now.
There is also Chris Said on the panel – a breath of fresh air.
YESSSSSSS Go Simon!!! Looks like those voting decided to take heed of what the people wanted. Prosit Simon, you deserve it!
Is-sabiha hi li l-Laburisti jqisu lil-Guy bhala bniedem ‘smart’ ghax tnejjek bil-gurnalisti.
Ghalija wera’ li lanqas jaf fejn hu quddiem jew wara ta’ dak li jkun qal minuta qabel, l-aqwa li jghidilhom xi haga , meta fil-verita l-anqas ghandu pjan.
Kont ghoddni nsejt fuq il-bicca ta’ Joseph u t-teleprompter tieghu fil-bitha tal-palazz .Dan kif kellu kollox ittajpjat u lest fuq it-teleprompter tieghu qabel ma sema’ l-budget ? U dak kif it-teleprompter beda jghaggel tant li r-robot Joseph ma setax ilahhaq mieghu?
Nixtieq nifrah lil Simon Busuttil li ghadu kif sar id-deputat kap tal-Partit Nazzjonalista. Nifrah ukoll lil Tonio Fenech talli offra sfida tajba lil Simon. Fil-PN hemm it-talent minn fejn taghzel. Grazzi Tonio u prosit Simon.
Mr. Privitera on a nearby blog assures all and sundry that we should vote for Joe so that he will deliver what the Gonzi budget proposes.
How very persuasive of the gentleman.
PS, Eat your heart our Eddy. Simon got elected.
Am watching ”Affari Taghna”.
When will Conrad Mizzi learn how to synchronize his thought processes with the speed of his speech and control his facial grimaces? He is scary.
He has just referred to the Partit Laburista as ”il Partit Laburbestja”.
No kidding.
I fully agree with you. He is absolutely scary. But then he is Labour.
Definition of ”Eddy” –
”a current or trend, as of opinion or events, running counter to the main current. ”

Spot on.
Very funny Mr. Portelli, as we say in Maltese, ‘il-kbir ghadu gej’.
Dear God,
I ask forgiveness on behalf of the Maltese people of the terrible things that we do, how we have sinned over the years and how unkind we have been to our neighbour.
We deserve to be punished, we deserve to be punished severely.
We swear. We swear like there is no tomorrow. We, as a nation have managed to turn swearing into an art. For this, too, we deserve to be punished. Take our tongues away, leave us mute.
Do whatever you want to us.
You have given us so much and we are so ungrateful. We never thank you for your kindness, for your abundant generosity.
On the contrary, we have no time for you and believe that all is plain sailing.
But we know that you have the right to punish us.
And we deserve to be punished.
Do whatever you want and what you think we deserve, but do not let these three musketeers anywhere near a government.
Imagine if they were kitchen or restaurant managers.
is that how they would run a restaurant kitchen?
Imagine how they would run the economy of our beloved country.
they do not know their arse from their elbow.
So please, we will abstain from anything you want us to abstain. we will do any penitence and punishment, but whatever you do, do not unleash these idiots on us.
Amen.
The geriatric trio.
bhallissa nofs id dawl electriku ta malta ghadu gej mil power station tal marsa li 30 sena ilu diga kienet karrakka
Dan ghax il power station ta gonzipn li swiet diga 200 miljun ma tahdimx u qieghda mitfija
allura dan il gvern jaf fejn sejjer?
Boy leader has lost control. Always was useless under pressure. Go ahead, vote for the useless bunch, reverse the progress.
Child stars, by definition, peak too early. Then they grow cocaine-thin or burger-fat and their career goes downhill.
Unless they’re Dolph Lundgren, of course.
Milli jidher tal-Lejber behsiebhom jaghmlu l-gbejniet. In fatti mohhom fil-“qafas.”
Some more reasons why we urgently need Joseph Muscat the Delivery Man to run the economy.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-20554321
the dream team …..
a nightmare.
The people will not get a reduction in water and electricity bills afterall! At least not before 3 to 5 years time.
That seems to be the promise PL delivers!.
One thing the PL will deliver, and that is the PN’s budget.
The only change PL will bring about, is that the budget will be presented by Edward Scicluna and not by Tonio Fenech but the budget was prepared by Tonio Fenech.
What a retarded analogy. Who does he think he’s addressing, a bunch of six year olds?
Il-partit tal-catering…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ADZtDyUiFg
The only person who has an idea on the subject was the MEP, he said they will reduce the budget in education and health to subsidies the electricity bills… because there is no other way it can be. Now he has to say what will be effected ; stipends, free medicines, operations, facilitators…
Gonzi and Fenech had no choice but to place the surcharges on the utility bills. They didn’t enjoy doing it but the country needed the money for the power plant extension and to pay for the imported oil which without it the power station in Delimara wouldn’t work.
.
This measure was needed and it was a responsible decision that will pay long term dividends.
From this video it is very evident that the MLP has no idea what to do once elected. Gonzi trapped them. Even if the people puts them in power they will fail miserably again as Sant did with the propaganda war on the vat.
Sadly Muscat is winning, now but in short time he will be a loser like Sant.
PN voters are such killjoys for preventing this comic, if somewhat tragic, act from taking centre stage. Let them run the show for a year then elect PN again when the PL government inevitably collapses.
Insomma ser ikollna ministri tal-form 2, bazwar ftit ‘l hawn u ftit ‘l hemm.
Too many cooks in the PL kitchen, it seems. How telling the fact that the sea-faring fossil is centre stage giving the elbow to the new face progressive economist candidate. Scicluna will be washing plates while the old timer stirs the pot.
Ser jinbiegh bajd ….
Oh my God, really unbelievable. Ma jafx x’qal.
George Grech, taf min kien jonqos fosthom – Delia Smith.
Jien toghgobni hafna l-froga ghax fiha ikla tajba u nippreferi nehodha minn taht idejn gvern Nazzjonalista.
Taf x’ma nhobbx? Ma nhobbx il-fatt li Edward Scicluna ghal darb’ohra reggha semma minn fejn irid igib il-flus biex irahhas il-kontijiet tad-dawl u l-ilma – mis-sahha, edukazzjoni u l-ambjent. Proset hej kemm inti bravu. Ta min jafdalkom il-vot.
Well, they all said it many times l-ekonomija tal kcina. And they will be master cooks. To me they seemed more like three opposing competitors for the finance minister seat than a team maqud. But it was their turn to show up in the daily press conference.
Who wants a cook when you can have a chef?
Karmenu Vella’s already into succession planning, not that enthused with Joseph’s decision to use the PN’s ingredients.
The argument to use when Labour unleashes CET MKII on Malta. Vella was the first to survive, as usual.
Scicluna was more to the point, if bills have to be reduced, the money has to be retrieved elsewhere.
Mangion won’t commit himself, a repeat performance of Wednesday’s TX.
Meantime, grassroots feel betrayed, bar talk denoting a sense of humiliation, why did Joseph have to adopt PN policies so blatantly?
How about this?
You own a restaurant, sack the chef for serving bad fare but keep his menu because you have no idea what else to do.
That’s written all over the PL right now.
It is not politically convenient for Muscat to withold the details any longer.
Given his talent for going for an advantage the reason can only be that these don’t exist. What that implies to his credibility cannot be ignored.
If this isn’t settled soonest we’ll find ourselves glued to the screens, the final Thursday debate before voting, waiting for same.
The question to be put across to every one of them should be whether they personally know the details.
Mayhem.
Moe, Larry, and Curly or. better still Rizzo the Rat, Swedish Chef and Pepe the King Prawn, in that order from left to right!
Though on second thoughts, I might in fact be insulting the Muppets.
To stick to the culinary theme.
Between the three of them they are prime ingredients for a superb minestra.
If they throw in Cuschieri and Parnis they might even make it to Michelin.
God spare us.
