Seeing the picture the only thing that came to my mind was – what a bunch of tossers.

Is this a sign of gross inferiority complex?

Like a boy who plays sick to miss school and an exam he did not prepare for.

I suggest the ‘out of control’ antics of the new government and it’s ministers are directly related to a thirty-nine year-old, hypocritical, manipulative and diabolical little person, totally inexperienced successfully running a large organization.

Chaos reigns and will continue.

[Daphne – What would Thatcher have had to do with that? British prime ministers do not get involved in who gets promoted to the rank of colonel in any regiment. In any case, when she became prime minister in 1979, Martin Scicluna was in his mid-40s, which is already a tad too late to be moping about hoping to be made colonel. Most officers have retired already at that age, and he probably was too.]
