In reply to Toni. Ah that is because whatever the PN does stinks whilst the PL is heavily perfumed.

Don’t forget that Mintoff used to go on holiday every summer on the Marsovin yacht and nobody ever thought it that bad.

The husband was good at syphoning money. His wife made the clocks at X Euros and he ‘charged’ the company X Euros plus 150% profit.

One must also consider that when Tonio Fenech accepted this gift, he was not even a minister yet..

In reply to Richard Borg. A nail file would suffice.

In reply to jack. Have to agree here. Although I admire his superb management of the economy through a turbulent European time, he should have kept himself squeaky clean. He must, at least, have a wrist watch somewhere.

I believe it’s “For want of a Nail”.

[Daphne – That’s the title of the nursery rhyme. The spoken lament is ‘For want of a horseshoe (nail)’.]

Wrong. Don’t want to be a pedant but it COST much less, in fact not more than Lm 200. It’s SELLING price (if ever sold) would likely be in the region of Lm 400 – Lm 500, she said.

So much for Varist’s claim pressing the Minister to admit he received a gift of not less than Eur 5000. Idiot.
