The speech read by the President hurt 47% of the electorate and their families who at one time or other must have donated money or taken part in some event organised by the President.

What would be the President’s reaction if all these people decided to boycott these events in protest at this shameful speech?

He should have had the guts to persuade the PM to delete the offensive references to the outgoing PM and his government who after all had appointed him to his present position.

Anglu Farrugia just now during Lawrence Gonzi’s reply to the budget speech (verbatim),

“Onofo-Onorevoli kap ta l-eposizjoni skond il-mozzjoni ta procedura skadilek il-hin pero nifhem li forsi hawn xi arrangament biex jitwal il-hin?”

How someone in the highest office can stoop to read such a humiliating speech directed at the person who elected him president is something that many cannot swallow.i am sorry to say that my respect towards the president has disappeared. If this is what working together means God help us

Jista jghajjat Joseph u dawk l-istudenti tal-MCAST “Malta taghna lkoll” ghax issa l’anqas il-president ma hu taghna lkoll.

Spicca id-diskors fierah ta’ josephdotcom li jrid igib l’ghaqda fil-pajjiz. Veru kienu gimmicks dawk is-slogans tal-Lejber. Issa s-switchers bdew jindunaw xi tfisser il-bidla li-ivvotaw ghaliha.

Tal-MISTHIJA jew kif jghid Konrad, SHAME on you, Mr. President.

Shame on you Mr. President. Ma nafx kif ma sthajtx taqra dak l-iscript li tak il-PM Joseph Muscat nofsu mimli b’attakki lejn il-Partit Nazzjonalista. Dan wara li l-PN tak 5 snin tghix f’kumdita liema bhalha?

Li kont ragel kont tghid lil Joseph Muscat biex inehhi dawk il-battuti li jgibu l-firda flok l-ghaqda imbaghad taqra l-messagg.

Jiddispjacini hafna imma b’dak li geghluk taghmel u li inti accettajt li taghmel, issa tlift il-kredtu mieghi u ma hafna ohrajn. Veru tal-misthija.

In reply to Calculator. Another aspect to take into consideration is the Lejber anger and indignation at Eddie's presence at the fosos meeting prior to the elections. Was this the direct payback?
