Two fine specimens of Maltese manhood pronounce themselves about the inferior races

Published: July 5, 2013 at 2:03pm

Many thanks to The Malta Independent for making my day with its superb front-page photograph.

All these two need is a lady vicar standing on the other side of the mike to marry them. An absolutely well-matched couple.

Congratulations. Perhaps Groom No. 1 will master the fine arts of the jerry can to the satisfaction of Groom No. 2, and they can discuss the finer attributes of their DNA while playing with Manuel’s Faberge eggs on those long hot summer nights.

Muscat Mallia

    Manuel will do the shopping at Lidl’s while Joseph helps the Romanian maids to carry more water from the fountain.

    No wonder Manuel treats the maids – and, I think, also his wife – in such a manner. He obviously considers them his inferiors both racially and probably also because they are women.

    Yesterday, I saw our prime minister passing by in his (but which we pay for) family car + driver and flag.

    He manages to look uncomfortable even seated in an Alfa 159. He must really have some sort of problem with his posture or else his superiority complex is getting the better of him.

    • Wot the Hack says:

      He probably sits uncomfortably because he worries about the fact that this car is costing the government Euro 7,000 per annum for the next 5 years.

    Look at that pose, that physique! No wonder women swoon in their presence.

  4. Bubu says:

    Why do they seem so uncomfortable in their own bodies?

    The PM, especially, seems unable to just let his hands fall down naturally by his side. He literally has the posture of a farmer.

    Perhaps it’s those lats he’s building up at the Spinach Gym.

    • Wot the Hack says:

      They probably feel naked when confronting the media.

    • Harry Purdie says:

      They both have had ‘out of body experiences’, were able to see what really looked like and didn’t like the idea of having to re-enter.

    I think if both had to circumscribe the Vitruvian circle, their heads would be outside the square and just inside the perimeter.

    Muscat’s square would be a rectangle and Mallia’s circle an ellipse.

    Manuel Mallia’s button couldn’t resist any more. Are all the journalists accounted for?

  7. Dear me says:

    That pose reminds me of the playground bullies – the look at me stance …

  8. tinnat says:

    Stunted limbs indeed. There’s a rule at my kids’ school that skirts cannot be shorter than the point where the fingers of a hand in a natural pose touch the thigh. At that rate, these two would be naked from the hip down.

  9. H.P. Baxxter says:

    They look more like Boteros and not at all like Arno Brekers, isn’t that so, Kenneth? Oh and isn’t that so, Stephen Farrugia?

    Teletubbies but not as cute

  11. James IV says:

    They look like two teletubbies.

  12. Edward says:

    I distinctly remember that Muscat once said that he agreed with the push-back policy of Italy, only to not only take it back, but also act very defensive and emotional when it was brought up. Am I right?

    It-tnejn hdejn xulxin fottew l-estetika tal-faccata ta’ Kastilja. Fuq rashom imisshom kitbu tabella b’din it-twissija: “Mhux permess li twaddbu hmieg f’dan il-post”

  14. Antoine Vella says:

    In Malta the most widespread form of racism is that born out of fear, literally ‘xenophobia’: fear of the foreigner. Many people are afraid of blacks – they actually believe there is some secret plan for blacks to take over Malta.

    By encouraging fear, or even instilling it where it didn’t exist, Joseph Muscat is creating the basis for racism. This is so irresponsible, so cynical and manipulative, that it verges on the criminal.

  15. Sapiens says:

    Why weren’t there any tailors on the Taghna Lkoll billboards? That would have been a worthwhile appointment.
