Well Mr Charles Cachia, the way you write English is enough to make us realise that you were brought up with the mentality that ethics and protocol are not important. How wrong you are.

Adherence to both is what makes a decent human being and that’s just for starters.

Failing to see the significance of this matter and thinking that the important thing is whether “the guests went away happy” is another indication of your culture.

Looks like protocol has not been strictly adhered too. SO WHAT?? Were the guests dishonoured by her presence ? Were the guests in disbelief at such a gross lack of protocol ? We should be discussing how came the PM put so much importance in the reception as to send his wife to meet and greet instead of him, since he is out of the country.

As for the Police \ Waiters \ food preparation, I take it that Police catering is not like the feast gabana in a village feast. I think better standards are adhered too. Like I said in the beginning, I am sure the guests went away satisfied. And that is the crux of the matter.

Tks.

Charles

Don’t tell me they were seen on the Verdala Palace steps doing their homework with a police/child carer while eating finger food served by police/waiters!

At that point Michelle will become officially the first lady with her staff and office. She is currently preparing for that role.

He’s also minister for the army. Just think of all the potential there.

[Daphne – Claude, a woman of my age, who has not led a sheltered life, is able to see quite clearly that the prime minister has no particular wish to share a bed with any woman at all. I will not go into the specifics as one cannot do so without descending into matters which would offend. Nor does it follow that this means he wishes to share a bed with a man. Human sexuality is extremely complicated.

Here’s some more information: men who lack most of the signifiers for masculinity (male pattern baldness doesn’t count as it is over-ridden by the other factors) are attractive only to teenage girls (but then they’ve got to be within their age group, like boy-bands) and a certain type of gay man, though only a certain type. As for my own personal preferences, I don’t wish to sound impolite, but the truth is that – apart from the foregoing explanation, which should be enough – the prime minister manifests all the qualities which repulse me even at a platonic level.

This has been the case from when I first knew him as a Super One reporter. And that is aside from the fact that he is nine years my junior and I am not Consuelo Herrera. Nine years my senior is more my thing.

You clearly fail to understand the role of this form of satirical criticism in a contemporary democracy. That you favour the Labour Party does not surprise me in the least. Your world does not extend beyond the flea circus we call home.]

So she’s not a Labour councillor they insisted.

Neither does she choose which of the residents to talk to when visiting an old people’s home.
