Dan il-gvern qeridna. Il-Laburisti mejtin bil-guh.
Evita and Joseph, with that old queen Ray Azzopardi and those other two old queens Renato and Mary Spiteri waltzing and warbling in unflattering outfits, raised €415,000 yesterday during Labour’s Super One telethon (not marathon, for heaven’s sake).
They don’t have money for their electricity bills, they’re feeding their children bread and pasta to save…well, dough, and then they have money for Labour’s billboards and newspaper advertising.
Amazing.
Throughout the telethon, they got their supporters all worked up with footage of the prime minister, Simon Busuttil, Austin Gatt (who is retiring from politics) and others and the message that if viewers don’t want this ‘klikka’ to be in power for another five years, they should donate to Labour.
Meanwhile, I’m sitting there looking at the ghouls and at Muscat’s ‘I’m so fantastic’ face and thinking – no doubt along with a few thousand others who weren’t actually out shopping or eating in restaurants at the time – “Bloody hell, where’s my cheque book? I must send something to the Nationalist Party. The Barbarians are at the gate AGAIN.”

Lets’ go for it Nazzjonalisti
WE CAN MADE IT AGAIN
My my . . l-ingliz tieghek qisu tal-lejburisti . . kif ma tghallimtx ahjar b’dawn l-avvanzi kollha fl-edukazzjoni taht il-PN!
M’hawnx flus?
Boring but I can’t stop repeating what I noticed yesterday: two computer shops selling the latest in TVs and PCs were jam-packed with people flocking in and flocking out of the shops, hands full of heavy boxes, which I presume contained the LCD, LED TV’s or whatever it is they call the latest models nowadays.
I got my cables after waiting in a queue of people, for about 30 minutes. People seemed to be going mad in the shops.
Once I got to Valletta, I felt hungry and I decided to pop into one of the fast food shops – fast food was never cheap. But yesterday seemed to be a special day as the crowds were incredible – I had to walk back out feeling hungrier as there was not one single table left.
Readers might think yesterday was a one off, but no. I went to another computer shop on Wednesday and this one didn’t have what I wanted but all the same, it was jam packed with people buying LCD TV.
And what’s with the latest mobile phone gadget? Iphone 4, 5, 6? HTC androids? At the computer shop, I felt completely out of the technology era and please don’t blame me, I was brought up during the Mintoff years so I am out of sync. But kids and their parents seem have it all, nowadays, as everyone was tapping the screens of the iphones, pads and blackberries.
On a very positive note, I completed my morning by relaxing at the Barakka Gardens. The views from there are spectacular, the weather was good so it was the perfect day to appreciate the restored buildings and the places which needed attention and which this Government ONLY was capable of looking after.
Mela that’s the problem… wrong priorities…we don’t have enough money to buy the new iphone uhx.
I get the impression, listening to what all unions, associations and other stakeholders had to say regarding the budget vote, that the great untold is perhaps we don’t really need an election. Definitely not this prompt situation of having to preempt doubts created by Labour, again.
Could we please carry on like this.
The president of the PL was on Bondi+ yesterday, utterly useless, couldn’t even maintain a modicum of crisp, definite talk. The impression given is that they’re all passing the buck onto Joseph. It’s his show anyway.
My better half rarely gets annoyed at anything, but she lately discovered she can’t stick their nonsense. Or lies.
Tonight’s show will be interesting to watch.
Good grief! You read my thoughts EXACTLY! AGAIN! :-)
