So…did Leo Brincat get to go, after all?

He’s not on the official guest list for Margaret Thatcher’s funeral. Not that this means much. When Joseph Muscat (the leader of the Opposition) was invited to the prime minister’s formal banquet for outgoing president Fenech Adami, he went slumming in Sicily with Anglu Farrugia and the wives in the backwater two-up-two-down that Anglu owns there, and sent Charlie Mangion and his wife instead.

    We’ve been spared another ‘vintage’ Dolce a Gabbana.

    Their early days were peppered with Sicilian mourning shawls, right up her street. Pity.

    When it comes to foreign affairs, this government is very economical with information.

    George Vella has just gone to Mauritania. We are told that he is ‘leading a delegation’. Can we know who forms part of this delegation?

    I scrutinised the TV shots of the crowd at the church service – as broadcast on PBS – carefully for white hair, but could not spot our Herr Flick.

    Why should Herr Flick, an avid fan of Mintoff, attend the funeral of Margaret Thatcher?

    [Daphne – Because he couldn’t resist the opportunity for hobnobbing with important people, as the DOI press release reveals.]

    So who went, exactly? Anyone?

    Thank God Anglu wasn`t sent….he would have needed an ultra-crash course in English.
