These two people are completely ridiculous posers and fakes
Oh look, now Michelle has joined her Fearless Leader on his portable platform. Isn’t that sweet?
Because you really, really need to stand on a platform to talk to a few old ladies and housewives in a village street. Shouldn’t these two posers and fakers be down among the people, pressing the flesh and at their level?
It’s not like the crowd is so enormous that they have to be lifted above it to be seen and heard.
And what sort of pose is that – knees akimbo, one hip at an angle and hands on thighs. Is she going to strip, or what?
Il-vera bla grazzja.Neither of these two is ever going to win the posture and carriage awards.
They look ridiculous on that platform surrounded by a cluster of old people. They are like two pasturi gone wrong on a wedding cake, with the guests waiting to tuck in.
A couple of total nerds with status suddenly thrust upon them. The trouble with them is that they don’t realise it’s completely transient. People don’t give a damn about them personally. They’re only interested in being connected to networks of power and in what they can get out of the prime minister and his wife, rather than the fascinating company of Joseph and Michelle Muscat the individuals.
While I was growing up post 1976 there was often a man sitting alone with his thoughts on a bench at Fond Ghadir (Sliema) as I walked past on my way home from the bus-stop. It was George Borg Olivier. Even today, when his name is mentioned it is not that famous, iconic photograph of him holding aloft the Declaration of Independence that comes to my mind, but the regular sight of him alone on that bench, looking at the sea.
It was and remains a salutary lesson, one that Muscat and Michelle clearly never learned. Michelle may not be the first Labour leader’s wife since World War II (Mintoff had one, after all), but she is certainly the only hideously pushy one in living memory and beyond.

Half a pace in front of ‘lil din’, turned slightly away so he basically has his back to her.
It’s all about him.
So – nothing new there then.
Tal-Ajkla gabar iktar nies minnu.
Pasturi don’t look that weird.
Kieku setghu jpoggu ruhom fil-presepju – kienu joghoqodu mal-maxtura qabel il-Madonna u San Guzepp, u kienu jiehdu lil-Etoile u Soleil maghhom, kif kienu ghamlu meta kien gie l-Papa ftit zmien ilu l-palazz il-belt Valletta.
If you just have to send on that platform next to your husband, the least you can do is make sure you’re wearing clothes which fit properly.
Fashion comes naturally to her. She said so herself in her interview with The Sunday Times last Sunday.
That’s right. Fashion, but no style.
To think that these two could soon be representing us on the international stage. A cringe worthy thought.
And Berlusconi was considered a buffoon? At least he dressed well and chased real girls. Although still a buffoon.
Ghax Joseph u anke Michelle ihossuhom hafna aktar il-fuq mill-poplu allura ma jithaltux u jzommu certa distanza mill-poplu.
She got that pose from the Snobbies.
Daphne please do not talk about Gorg Borg Olivier in the same context as Joey.
You know what I mean.
It hurts. It really does.
I know Gorg as the quintessential gentleman.
Keep the two, the statesman and the charlatan, separate.
“Giorgio”
Hey Baxxter, just picked up a rumour from the red HQ snake pit.
Toni Abela’s handlers suggest suicide could be a great career move.
Move over Anglu. Gotta make room for the fallen.
Whatta you think?
My fellow countrymen cannot understand literary language or irony. For this reason, I won’t comment.
Michelle b’poza a la Snobby.
Hemm mara ohra fil-politika li kienet taghmel dik il-poza. Sharon Ellul Bonici. Ohra b’ego splodut.
And what’s with wearing sunglasses when you’re addressing/standing next to someone who’s addressing people from a platform?
If she really wants to reach out to the people someone needs to tell her that sunglasses are a big no-no. It’s all about body language and this photo just screams “arani u la tmissinix”.
These two, but especially Michelle, are “wannabes” of the worst kind – the ones who don’t have a clue how to avoid looking like “wannabes”.
Tisthajilhiex Karlie Kloss jew Malgiosa Bela ukoll, b’dik il-poza?
Forsi kienet ser titkellem fuq il-bizlejn kbar bhal ma ghamlet f’xi programm fuq is-Super One u tghajjar lin-nisa bil-big boobs bhala baqar, izda dawn taghna ukoll.
Have you seen her interview on timesofmalta.com last Sunday?
Sickening.
