“That’s the way it’s always been, and I don’t think it’s about to change now”.

Wrong! Things will definitely change if Labour wins – for the much worse, of course.

In reply to Qeghdin Sew. I only meant to point out the wrong tense. The confusion between the two verbs was my mistake after I took the phrase out of its context. But enough pedantry for now. By the way, is there some way we could have comment tracking over here? Sometimes it's nearly impossible to remember which comments might have been replied to.

Why does Joseph shrug his wife off yet he seems to be holding David’s butt?

Tant spikkat il-prezenza tieghek, that I was in the audience and – although I had a clear view of the press box – could not make out who was seated there, even if I had wanted too.

Maybe Anthony David Gatt should have spent his time listening to what our prime minister had to say. It sure beats listening to Labour fairytales.

The mouth shrugs were being…well mouthed, because the general public are simply not interested in what intellectuals like Fenech, Zahra, and Bartolo have to say.

The propagandist knows that as well as being aware that anything that they do or say is not going to change things one iota. He knows that when you are rallying public opinion you appeal to their emotions not their intellect.

That’s the way it’s always been, and I don’t think it’s about to change now.

Go on Daphne, post a pic of you in your specs, maybe nibbling the end of a pencil.

Although maybe not, it may be too much for old Eddy P to take!

Eddy, do the honourable thing and please explain to your people that Daphne is a journalist and blogger and not a politician.

Nice photo. A clenched fist holding a rose or carnation coming out of ADG’s right ear. Wonder what went into the left one.

ED:

“Of course, the thrilling footage of a 48-year-old woman in spectacles, jotting down notes WHILE SEAT on a fold-out chair”

while sat

[Daphne – seated, actually, hence the typo. Sat is wrong, though commonly used.]

Sure, and they invite the Cheshire Cat to demonstrate some tricks and gimmicks.

Coming to think of it, I think Jason is their Queen of Hearts after he shouted, ‘Off with Anglu’s head!’
