Roving cabinet meetings for the cameras: it has come down to this
Because this government wants to be more efficient and cut down on bureaucracy and waste, it took the entire cabinet of 20+ to Marsaxlokk today and held its weekly cabinet meeting there, using up even more time, money and bureaucracy to organise the space for the meeting, the press, the attendant fanfare, and all the petrol of all the cars going there and back.
And they couldn’t really have a cabinet meeting at all, because you can’t when the press and an audience are listening in for the first hour and you’re out of your normal surroundings and dying to get back.
How ridiculous these people are: one costly stunt after another, all set up for the cameras, instead of getting on with the business of running the country. It’s impossible to take them seriously.
And inviting the video cameras in to film them assembled all together round a table is a nightmarishly idiotic idea. Lined up all together and with Mario Cutajar, they look like a throng of goons from the Golden Years of stupidity, ignorance, amateurishness and ineptitude.
The thought that they are running the country is actually frightening and disturbing. It’s impossible to take them seriously, but take them seriously we must, because they’re in charge and there are going to be serious consequences to that.

And they brought in a mobile air conditioning unit. I wonder how much that cost.
It is most upsetting to learn hrough The Times that the Prime Minister is mulling over the idea to PUSH BACK the 102 illegal immigrants who arrived in our country (not HIS) this morning, retunring them to Libya.
This is really unacceptable! This is typical of the ‘kind’ and ‘social justice philosophers’ of the local PL.
I hope that PN uses all its legitimate forces, including staying out of parliament till this issue is resolved humanely, so that Joseph refrains from endangering the life of so many and ruining our reputation among EU Member States. Above all, this is a matter of principles, human dignity and fundamental human rights.
Let’s report him to his mate Schulz. I’d love to see him try the wot de hack technique with his socialist Eurobuddies now that he’s PM.
We have a giant dickhead leading us, and no mistake.
I agree with you 100%.
This is really worrying. Pressure must be made on the government NOT to send them back. It would be extremely dangerous for them.
I beg the Prime Minister to reconsider. Pressure must be made by the PN, NGO’s, facebook users… by everyone with a heart and conscience so that they are not sent back.

He’ll do it – if not this evening with this group, it’ll be another group tomorrow or next week. They want Malta out of the EU.
Then in years to come, thanks to this incomparable imbecile of a PM and his cronies, we’ll be able to to look back on this momentous occasion, and ask each other,
“Where were you standing when the shit hit the fan?”
And where the f*ck should we stand, pardon my language?
I mean what CAN we, as private citizens, do?
I heard the next one will be a beach barbecue at Ghajn Tuffieha with the cops flipping Lidl burgers, and live music by Renato.
That’s handy.
All 20+ of them could have waded into the sea and “pushed-back” the dinghy that was captured off Delimara.
In Marsaxlokk this morning, the locals thought that another boat had come ashore with 24 “illegal immigrants.”
Some Xlukkajri were heard shouting “push them back.”
They wouldn’t have needed to push it back – anyone who saw them en masse would have just turned and started rowing in the other direction.
Slow, painful starvation is better than life under Labour.
It is not normal that immigrants come in at Delimara. Could it be that these were mercenaries who, knowing that the whole government would be meeting at Marsaxlokk, thought about kidnapping all of them and taking them hostages?
But then how much would they demand? Possibly they thought better of the whole scheme seeing that maybe, the Maltese would have preferred to leave them kidnapped rather than pay good euros for them.
The knights of the round table?
They even sent government employees to paint the hall two weeks ago to make sure it’s looking all ‘nice’ and the persons responsible were told not to utter a single word about the Cabinet meeting which was going to be held in the parish hall but then kumbinazzjoni the PM’s head of communications made an official announcement to inform one and all.
They are starting to look like the Jews following Moses blindly to the promised land, lost in the desert, wandering from one mirage to another.
I am waiting for the scene when they need to cross to Gozo.
I’d love to be there to see the waters part.
It is not even the “Bread and Circuses” for the Roman hoi-polloi of ancient times. It is just a “circus” with no bread or meat.
And the clowns are like something out of a Stephen King book.
Roving! Isn’t that exactly how Gaddafi used hold his meetings, with the only difference being that his were in a tent.

They think their meeting looked similar to this one.
Truly, Government by gimmick!
It seems they took over from Silvio Zammit, organising mobile circuses around Malta.
There’s no word in The Times report that the extension (building) of another Power Station on the Xlukkajris’ doorstep will ruin the environment and hasten the onset of cancer on them.
