It was a stupid move, not Machiavellian. Would you send a known paedophile to judge Little Miss Toddler Malta in order to see his downfall?

No, you wouldn’t. Because in order to secure his conviction, you’re causing untold harm to his victims.

John Dalli isn’t a private individual. He was a government minister and an EU Commissioner. We were his victims.

If the PN really promoted him for the reason you suggest, then we are in the presence of monumentally cynical evil, and Fehmiet Bazici be damned. I hope this isn’t the sort of party that Simon Busuttil wishes to build.

More than that however, due to its past links with him, it would need to disassociate itself from his reason in needing to be in the Bahamas.

If the money is local, as I think it is, then the residual perception today is that it is a family front for ministers and ex-ministers from both sides.

There’s no better time for a total clean out. We have really reached the pits.

Has the cat got everyone’s tongue?

A statement from both sides is well overdue.

H.P. Baxxter –

Appointing Dalli was a Machiavellian move from the PN who simply wanted to see the man’s downfall.

You wouldn’t send a glutton to work in a sweet shop, would you?

Unfortunately neither the Prime Minister nor the Leader of the Opposition seem to have what it takes.
