Marlene Mizzi: instead of taking her party’s supporters to task for their embarrassing behaviour, she criticises Times of Malta for reporting it

Published: August 7, 2013 at 2:57pm

Marlene Mizzi, Labour MEP, toyshop owner and purveyor of the sort of clothes worn to the August Moon Ball (tal-okkazzjoni) has criticised Times of Malta for reporting on the crass and imbecilic comments which Maltese people are now posting on Cecilia Malmstrom’s Facebook page.

Of course, a national newspaper must always take advice on what constitutes news value from somebody who thinks the entire world is fascinated by pictures of one of her cats playing peekaboo.

    What’s wrong, Marlene – can’t bear the consequences?

    I remember the game peep-o, but I’m not sure what the game peep-po is…actually, not so sure I want to know.

  3. Josette says:

    Why do we expect more of the people when we sent someone like this to represent us in the European parliament?

  4. Rumplestiltskin says:

    Ms. Mizzi, instead if telling The Times not to report the disgraceful comments that are shaming us as a nation, you should be putting pressure on your beloved leader to disassociate himself from this garbage. Few will believe him but at least he would have tried to save some national face.

    I bet my bottom dollar that PBS will say nothing about this tonight!

    Ah but you see, that behaviour punches a hole in the hot air balloon called ‘thousands more voted for us so we must be great’.

    Exposing the high caliber and stratospheric intelligence of these very voters takes the bragging potential down a notch, or two or a hundred. On careful consideration it actually makes the numbers embarrassing for the ‘victors’. Are we surprised that some want to sweep those comments under the carpet? More so those who need to venture outside our insular shores.

    On a different subject: someone please, please inform the super one news readers that Al Qaeda is not pronounced with a ‘q’ sound like the ‘q’ in Qala (the village in Gozo), but like the ‘kaf’ in Arabic. Anyone with half a brain can Google it and get a grasp. I know that the bottom of the barrel was probably scraped but come on! One of the many links is below:

    And just in case anyone thinks that getting anyone fond of this site to watch super one is a victory, I will only say one name, Sun Tzu.

    She didn’t even spell peekaboo correctly.
