Pls resign, go now and stay there.
That is why he is going to give stipends to repeaters. He would have qualified.
What’s your most treasured thing?
Gonzi: My house.
Pinocchio: My black trainers(those which he uses in the gym on the video)
Joseph is IN satiable.
With historical knowledge like the Fearless Leader’s, no wonder Franco Debono was king of Form IIC.
The most impressive part:
” What is the most expensive thing you’ve bought?”
Gonzi: “My house”
Muscat: “Apart from my car, I think it was a handbag for my wife. But it was a sum of a Valentine’s, Christmas and birthday present.”
SO – DESPITE THE SO CALLED SOARING ELECTRICITY BILLS AND ALL THE MISERY WE ARE ‘SUPPOSEDLY’ LIVING IN UNDER A P.N. GOVERNMENT – HE COULD STILL AFFORD SUCH LUXURIES LIKE AN EXPENSIVE CAR AND A DESIGNER HANDBAG! HOW CONTRADICTING!
Huh? Does he need history lessons or is this some convoluted metaphor?
There may be some historical connection between the Spanish history pre- and post- discovery of America and the current history of the Malta Labour Party, which probably explains why Joseph Muscat said he would have liked to live in Spain before the discovery of America.
Coca leaves (also known as ‘blocks of ice’) had been chewed in South America for hundreds of years before the discovery of America. When the Spanish arrived, they found out about this custom. They legalised the practice and imposed a tax on it. Presumably, they then imported the practice into Europe.
I think Joseph Muscat realises that the discovery of America by the Spanish has landed his party in a lot of trouble in the current electoral campaign, and he would rather that Colombus never landed on the New World.
Thinking to myself: Toni Tana Lkoll does have the looks of Don Diego de la Vega.
He has the looks of Sancho Panza at best.
This lot would’ve been wiped out the moment they stepped off the sandy beach into the mangrove.
We need a goddamn Aguirre to lead Malta.
Spain at its most oppressive, food out of a microwave, and people, athletes or whatever, discarded when they need it most. .
Eric Cartman.
Better late than never.
Most probably, the only history he has ever known is that taught to him by his nanna during those 1970s Mintoff meetings, in which Mintoff surrounded himself with such dinosours as Leo Brincat, Joe Debono Grech, and Karmenu Vella il-Guy.
He probably thinks that history started in 1971, and that the only major historic event of relevance was when Mintoff “liberalised sodomy.”
There are no limits to Labour’s effort at re-writing history.
How appropriate is the Maltese saying
“Skopra l-Amerka!”
I just read the article and it really reveals how infantile he is. It reveals how he really doesn’t understand what the term responsibility is all about and how it is about him always.
Honestly, the most expensive thing he has bought is a bag for his wife. For heavens sake it really confirms my opinion that he is a mummy’s boy and has been spoiled rotten.
Did he even buy the electrical appliances or the furniture in his house or was everything given to him? Or did Michelle’s handbag cost most than the kitchen?
Then Michelle complains about soppa ta l-armla.
His concept of love is emptiness – oh for heavens sake, I am actually now pitying poor Michelle and her kids.
He has no concept of what love is so how do you expect him to give it in return.
Apart from the fact that he answered three questions with the same rehashed answer, that is.
As I always thought, he can’t think about anything which doesn’t involve him.
He is one of those individuals that I deem as “cut, copy and paste” as they aren’t capable of anything else.
They have to fake and copy and simulate emotions because they can’t actually feel them.
What I found really ammusing was his favourite sound: the microwave, because it means food. Bloody idiot.
U mela and at the same time kien jahrab mill l-assedju il Kbir!
“Columbus sailed the ocean blue,
In fourteen hundred ninety two.”
This is the way every kid in America remembers this date in history.
I think we should take his choice as an omen.
Who cares about the pillaging perpetrated by the Spaniards? Who cares about the mad rush for gold and silver? Who cares about the introduction of European diseases which ended up killing so many natives? Indeed, who cares about the indigenous people at all?
Their reasoning was exactly like Muscat’s: L-Amerka tagħna lkoll.
Not a laughing matter, I think.
What we have here is the future Prime Minister so stuck in the Maltese parochial mindset that he confused the discovery of the American continent with the Great Siege and who hasn’t had that grand lie of Maltese primary education (Columbus discovering America) debunked yet.
Tsk, tsk. Were’s Kenneth Zammit Tabona when you need him? Teaching the Labour marmalja table manners?
If he got his history from Grajjet bloody Malta, what else can we expect? It’s all ruddy Maltese patriotic navel-gazing from Hagar Qim to Il-Helsien. Malta hija l-univers, u l-univers huwa Malta.
My friends, sejrin ghal gol-hajt at warp speed hawnhekk.
