Well, Manuel Mallia didn’t buy his antiques and his Faberge eggs with fat fee-cheques from the victims

The BBC reports today on the UK government’s attempts to give more legal status and procedural significance to to the victims of crimes (link below).
Meanwhile, our government concentrates on serving the interests of the perpetrators.
It’s time we asked what role my St Aloysius College classmate, Mark Montebello and his Mid-Dlam Ghad-Dawl organisation played in this liaison with the Labour Party before the election.
Not that it matters now, but we certainly have a right to be told.

I wouldn’t bring Mark Montebello into this. There is a difference between lobbying against jail and offering positive alternatives such as many Scandinavian countries do (which I think is what Montebello is trying to achieve), and simply freeing people who are in jail – people who have gone through no rehabilitation and therapeutic programmes, and thus learnt nothing, changed nothing, and possibly used jail to widen their criminal network.
[Daphne – Oh I wouldn’t treat Mark Montebello as you would anyone else. He belongs to the rank and file of the neurotically obsessed.]
What trash. I believe that what works for the cool and level-headed Scandinavians does not necessarily work for the hot and irrational Maltese.
I have always wondered out loud how on earth do Scandinavians and other Nordic people marry the Maltese.
Sun, sand and snus.
Now let us see if our President justifies this farce.
Do you have any doubts that he will not ?
Of course he will!
