Sorry about that, Gahan.

Praise the Lord, Hallel(in)ujah.

One Sargas powerstation was estimated to cost USD 1 billion. And that was around a year ago.

One of the journalists asked Dalli a question about whether there was a connection between his trips to the Bahamas and Sargas. He laughed it off.

Yes, they are reminiscent of ransom requests. I think the intention is to show the news of the day or the newspaper’s date, and hence show the date when the picture was taken.

Why is it John Dalli and not the PM to make the first announcement to the media on this matter?

Simple, to see what questions will pop up and how Dalli slips out.

He always sends someone else to test the waters.

Now Joseph will read the comments boards and will decide how the people PERCEIVE the whole Dalli Nostra or Nostro Dalli.

I think Joseph will try to alienate us by continuing with his fight against the EU on the boat people coming from Africa, while Dalli is scheming his charity work running in billions of dollars for African people.

On second thoughts Dalli has THE solution for Europe’s illegal migration from Africa, for free.

Dalli should be nominated for the Noble Peace Prize for his charitable work.

Good, shall we gather for a mass at the Bahamas to thank the Lord?

Since the private flight could not be refunded, Dalli was handed the stub back.”

Lol so he tried to get a refund too…

[Daphne – It wasn’t a private flight. And you don’t get ticket stubs for private flights. Oh, I see what they mean – private business, not a private flight. He took it back when he realised what he had done.]

He’s also not the sharpest knife in the drawer or he’d have seen that the political status he exploited for his own gain could also work against him. The flood of con artists and snake oil merchants must have been overwhelming.

So now it’s billions, is it? I thought he said today that it’s “up to one billion”.

Imagine the size of the commission deals worth billions.
