    The events of last night have put Anglu Farrugia in the spotlight.

    This is precisely the opposite of Labour’s attempt to hide him.

    Labour won’t work.

      Anglu Farrugia is like John Prescott of the British Labour Party under Tony Blair. They always tried to hide Prescott, he was a liability.

    What a pathetic bunch of losers.

    I am ashamed to admit that I was actually entertaining the idea of spending my vote on this clan of baboons.

    How irresponsible that would have been.

    Partit bla bajd.

    No wonder yesterday’s events are shocking. We are in the middle of an electric campaign.

    Mr Deputy Leader was too chicken, so they sent the cockerel out.

    And why is Simon and Gonzi avoiding Franco?

    For the sake of sane politics I think that the people want to see both Debono vs Busuttil & Farrugia vs Busuttil debating.

    PBS cannot deny the people from knowledge. This is purely dictatorship. We want to know what is behind EVERY political party’s agenda! Give it to us PBS.

  7. this evening Dr. Farrugia will face Simon on Xarabank. But Simon was like a scared rabbit yesterday, running away from Franco Debono ! Franco will be replying to Simon’s comments this evening REAL-TIME when he will be on Bla Agenda !

      Oh our dear old Eddy, memory seems to be abandoning you in old age – or maybe it is just good old lejber selective memory.

      Maybe you have forgotten that this is the same Simon who as head of the public communications office ahead of Malta’s referendum on EU membership participated in a number of debates even at the dar tal-hgieg, in front of a baying crowd (were you among them? you certainly fit the profile).

      I think it was either Gorg Vella or Varist Bartolo who, at the end of one such bear-baiting event, publicly expressed his admiration as Simon stayed calm and collected in the face of a hostile audience. Some in that same audience even grudgingly applauded!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To use punctuation marks you understand so well.

      U issa ha jibza’ minn nofs kedda li jeqred iktar minn kunjata frustrata!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (there you go again).

      When you are agreed to meet a counterpart to discuss important issues you don’t accept to meet just about anyone that counterpart, in his infinite insolence and show of abysmal mintoffian manners, decides to send in his stead.
