Yes, right – you’re voting Labour ghax Joseph jemmen fik, and not because you’re Norman Hamilton’s daughter

Here’s one of Norman Hamilton’s and Josette Grech’s daughters telling us that she’s voting Labour ghax Joseph jemmen fiha.

Oh, right.

What chance did the poor thing even have of growing up thinking straight about political issues, when her parents were the two main stars of Xandir Malta in the Hdura Years and are still two of the main stars of Super One today (how fresh, new and progressive, God bless them all)?

This young lady is also the second (silent) sister in Labour’s Courage to Vote video.

Now this would be an interesting ‘courage to vote’ video, wouldn’t it: the Hamilton drawing-room, and Miss Hamilton walks in to tell Norman and Josette that she’s decided to vote Nationalist because it’s the Nationalist Party that is the party of change, and because she’s done so well through PN policies.

“Daddy, I’m voting PN.”

Poor Norman – that would be enough to send a man of his great age (he’s in his 70s, despite the youngish brood) to meet his maker.

Does this constitute an attakk fahxi u moqziez fuq il-familja Hemiltinn? Oh, probably. God, how ridiculous they are. I’m beginning to feel like an observer at a mad circus.

So Beppe Grillo’s has emerged as the strongest party in the Italian election, has it? Italy and Malta: blood brothers and total strangers to the mindset and history that gave birth to democracy in northern Europe.

    Joseph ma jemmen f’hadd u f’xejn.
    Jemmen biss li jista jidhak bin-nies u jingannhom biex jisraqilhom il-vot. U ma certa nies dan hu facli.

    Attakk fahxi u moqziez fuq annimal innocenti. On behalf of the goat I will be seeking imprisonment.

      La ta’, il-papa qed jinghad li sejjer High Commissioner f’Londra tant li diga’ zar il-kapitali Ngliza halli jara ezatt fejn tinsab il-Kummissjoni Gholja. Imma xorta jista’ jkollu l-kompetizzjoni ghax dak li hemm illum qed jahseb li josephmuscat.com se jhalli hemm.

    Let’s propose a song for the Lejber Victory CD:
    (Sung to the melody of “Kristu jgħix ġo fija”)

    Joseph jemmen fija…
    Joseph jemmen fija…
    Joseph jemmen fija llu-u-u-um
    B’qalbi kollha u bis-sħiħ,
    dan nemmen fih,
    li Joseph jemmen fija llum!

    Her sister seems to be doing very well. Joseph jemmen fiha ukoll!

    The goat is a great hit in our household. We play it over and over for a good laugh.

    Maa x’diskors irresponsabbli! Nispera li dil persuna ma taqbadx u tizzewweg lil xi hadd li bil kemm tafu.

    It takes years and years and years of trials and tests to be able to confirm this kind of judgement of character and I’ll quote the phrase: ‘Jiena nemmen f’xi hadd ghax dax-xi hadd jemmen fija’.

    Just because a face on TV convinces you, my dear, it does not mean that the person is convincing.

    Mickey Mouse was my all time favourite cute face on TV, but at age 7, all he was, was a cute face on TV and at age 7 I managed to figure that the cute face was nothing more than a good source of entertainment.

    In simple English, a convincing face coupled with sweet words do not necessarily prove the best results in politics.

    Pero Norman jemmen fis-suq hieles ghax taht in-nazzjonalisti sar sinjurun.

    U anke lill-mummy (Josette Grech) – we will giver her a programme on TVM tipo Bongu Malta.

    And her uncle was a member of the infamous SMU in the golden years of mayhem. Nice.

      Kumbinazzjoni iz-zaghzugh li kien se jixhed kontra tieghu fil-qorti fuq l-isparatura tal-pulizija fuq in-Nazzjonalisti fir-Rabat, miet b’overdose gurnata qabel.

    Joseph tries to emulate Grillo, problem is, that would place him in opposition.

    The ‘Courage to Vote’ advert is so odd that I am waiting for the ‘second part’.

    It is the morning and the daughter walks into the kitchen where her parents are having breakfast.

    Omm – Xi gralek binti, x’inti safra?

    Bint – Lejl nitqalleb, Ma. Hlomt li ridt nivvota Labour!

    Omm – Tivvota Labour! Mela qed tiggennen binti? Mela ma tafx kif konna meta kellna l-Labour?

    Bint – Iva, Ma, imma nahseb mohhi gera bija bil-kliem helu li qed nisma.

    Omm – Ghandek ragun binti. Ma tistax tiftah television li ma tismax kliem helu. Imma mill-kliem ghall-fatti hemm bahar jikkumbatti. X’tivvota Labour. Qatt ma niftakarna li konna daqshekk sew. Hutek it-tnejn jahdmu u jaqlawha sew. Int wasalt biex isir tabiba. Missierek kuntent fuq xogholu.

    Bint – Iva, Ma, naf. Qatt ma saru progetti u nholoq xoghol daqs dawn l-ahhar hames snin.

    Omm – U m’intiex tara. Kull meta l-pajjiz kellu jiehu decizjoni dejjem il-wahda l hazina ghazlu tal-Labour. Mur gibna smajna minnu u ma dhalniex fl-Ewropa.

    Bint – Mhux hekk biss, Ma. Barra minn Malta kull fejn tela l-Labour, qghad biss ghandhom Franza, Spanja, l-Portugal.Ta Ma, tidhaqx. imma hlomt ukoll li il-papa qabel mieghi.

    Papa – Nahtfek binti. Kieku bil-giri zammejtkom kif qed tghixu. Ma jonqoskom xejn. Mela le, Biex nergaw inqumu kull filghodu b’ xi bicca ghawg gdida. M’intiex tara, ukoll issa li ghadhom fl-opposizzjoni, hlief gideb, kwistjonijiet u glied mhux qed iqanqlu. Hallik mill-holm binti. U darb’ohra attenta x’tiekol qabel ma torqod.
