John Dalli: too ill to travel but not too ill to manipulate the situation

Looking at all the tahwid and media manipulation attempts going on now in the OLAF/snus/Dalligate imbroglio, can it be more obvious why John Dalli keeps getting his ‘too ill to travel’ certificate extended, while the police in Malta do nothing about it?

    Miskin, our very own principe di Malta or Lord Lucan.

    He’s not blue, he’s not red, just plain yellow.

  3. nathan says:

    It seems that the Greens are very supportive of Dalli, what’s behind that ?

  4. Leslie Darmanin says:

    Going by Malta (John Dalli) Today’s report titled: “Repercussions of OLAF revelations discussed in Castille”, the impression you get is that the target now is the Malta police, more particularly the “stewardship” of the commissioner.

    MT has already gone after Rita Schembri following the Dalli scandal, is the commissioner of police next in their sights?

    Are they doing the dirty work for Castille and Dalli?

    In the words of George W Bush: A true axis of evil.

    “……Dalligate affair, was the subject of discussions inside Castille today with the prime minister, MaltaToday was informed.”

    MaltaToday seems to be in such a privileged position when it comes to news coming out of Castille.

    Why are they trying to nail John Rizzo with some kind of complicity? Are they in search of a way to get rid of him? They’re cowards enough to want an excuse instead of facing him directly.

    John Dalli: now literally a prisoner in Brussels.

    Do the right thing – put this criminal behind bars.

  9. ray meilak says:

    Innocent until proven guilty, so there is no excuse not to answer to police questions and he has a right to lawyer up as well.

    Shut your big mouth daphnie & co. Who are you to question whether dr.dalli is sick or not. Alway pesonal attacks, even today jum id duluri. Ex pn

      Hogwash. Maltese swearing is probably the most obscene and blasphemous that any language can sink to (very original though) and yet as a people we act all pious on holy days and when tyrants kick the bucket.

      Dalli deserves a kick up the backside into court and let him have his day.

    • N.L. says:

      If you don`t want to see any comments Ray, just stay away from this blog.

      Ghax vera tqazzuni tindahhlu rigward x`jaghmel haddiehor.

      Imbasta triduha tal-Liberali.

    He’s witty and that’s what I would do instead of him. He’s most likely faking illness to buy time and uncover as much truth as he can before facing the Maltese police force. He knows he won’t get any justice here and his only hope is exposing as much as he can from Brussels. I’m not saying he’s innocent or otherwise and no one knows that.

    [Daphne – Witty?]

    • Cittadin Malti says:

      Chris probably means “wajs.”

      • Chris says:

        I meant witty, I see you are well versed with bogan language Cittadin Malti.

        [Daphne – No, I don’t think you meant ‘witty’ somehow. There is nothing remotely witty about John Dalli. He is distinguished by his absolute lack of a sense of a humour and his difficulty using words effectively.]

      • Chris says:

        Here in the land of Oz, witty means smart.

  12. edgar says:

    I tend to agree with the first comment, that is Dalli is plain yellow. There probably is no person who believes that he cannot travel.

  13. Alexander Ball says:

    It must be uncomfortable for the Dalli apologists to have evidence of wrongdoing uncovered outside of Malta.

    Bit like someone outside the family finding out you’ve been shagging your sister.

    This is the man who contested to be Leader of the PN to be Prime Minister in 2004. This is the Man that Labour is protecting. I am befuddled. Please enlighten me , where am I stuck?
