Travels With My Podium
Now it’s been taken on an outing not just to the Wignacourt Museum but also to St Vincent de Paule old age home, where its human attachment said (reported in The Times):
Speaking outside St Vincent De Paul residential home, the PL leader said Labour was committed to not raising the retirement age any further and he pledged to begin the process of increasing the minimum pension until it reached 60 per cent of the national average income – something he admitted would not be achieved within one legislature.
Dr Muscat however did not explain how the PL reconciled its calculations with those of a government-appointed pensions working group, which last year found that even a massive increase in workforce participation would not be enough to make Malta’s pensions system sustainable.
And meanwhile, among the grown-ups…

Good. If he plans to not raise the retirement age, then Leo Brincat, Karmenu Vella, George Vella, Alex Sceberras Trigona, Emmanuel Mallia, Edward Mallia, Louis Grech, and Joe Debono Grech should all be free to retire comfortably after 9 March 2013.
They have all cuddled up with their moola, ciccio. This is icing.
Edward Mallia?
Baxxter, who gives a shit.
Still up. Here goes Obama. About to start.
Will give you my impression after the address.
Baxxter, Obama’s State of the Union address started with the usual happy horseshit.. Then I went dull. Talked only domestically. So anti business.
Foreign policy was not apparent.
Finished with the gun laws debate. Only then did he get an emotional response.
Not very inspiring. But one hell of a lot more professional than our little Joey
Michelle (Obama) looked super. Maybe Joey’s wifey should take notes on how to present herself.
Jeez, the Republican’s response is so sick. Watching it right now. Such a bag of shit. The official Republican response came from a young little, newly elected Republican representitive, reminded me of little Joey. A young, clueless, little, inexperienced, over ambitious clown.
Ex-Ambassador Victor, aged 75, coaching Joseph with speeches and ghost-writer, wants a post. He’ll have to do another u-turn on this. Going out with one of Malta’s Cultural Ambassadors.
Well spotted, Baxxter. I meant Edward Scicluna, the Professor of Mintoffianomics.
My apologies to Edward Mallia.
Daphne,are you still awake working?You must be very energetic knowing that you were abroad yesterday.Go to sleep dear and prepare yourself for another fruitful day.Good night.
Iola, this woman is the most outstanding, tough and intellectual individual I have ever met. A couple of hours of lost sleep mean nothing to her.
She is driven to keep our country growing, clean, proud and prosperous. As it is now. Nuff said.
Hear, hear, hear ….
Harry and I meet once a month for our Daphne Fan Club event. He’s had more lunches with her than me, which isn’t fair.
Do the two bodyguards on the right hand side come complimentary with the podium?
“its human attachment” – love it.
Labour activists are giving out Labour flags at the Campus Leaders Debate.
Someone told me that some ‘students’ have torn an EU flag on Campus while yelling ‘Taghna lkoll! Taghna lkoll’
Am I alone in thinking that that podium has phallic resemblances?
Nope.
Dirty minds think alike, thank God.
:)
Must be due to the prick standing behind it.
”Job wanted – have podium and teleprompter and will travel.”
No podium, no party.

Joseph Muscat’s diary entry: Today my podium, mysteriously appeared again. It was well cleaned, and I had a wonderful time delivering a great speech while cuddling my little white friend.
Although I must say that my friend is feeling the weight of the election campaign: it seems to bend a bit more every other day.
