He voted Labour this time round too. All the while he was &quot;advising&quot; the PN on election strategy.

The problem with him, and with other faux or real intellectuals, is they think voting choices are some philosophical disquisition over a few drinks, like discussing Coelho or the virtues of green tea. 

Me, I know the PN is shyte. But Labour is even shyter. So I go for the lesser evil and make sure I vote PN (not AD). And Utopia be damned.]]></description>

Kxift il-maskra lli ilhek tghatti wiccek biha s-snin, bhal meta vvutajt Labour fil-1996 u cempilt lil hbieb tieghek biex imorru jistkennu mill-marmalja Laburista li harget ticcelebra u tghajjarhom.

					<description><![CDATA[Nista&#039; nifhem x&#039;bicca nkwiet daħal fih Joseph Chetcuti, pero dan ġabu kollu hu b&#039;idejh. 

Li tippoża b&#039;dak il-mod quddiem camera tar-ritratti hu fih innifsu att pubbliku. Dan mhux bħal meta tippoża quddiem il-mera bejn l-erba&#039; ħitan ta&#039; darek. Bħala avukat nippretendi li jifhem id-differenza.  

U int, Pepp, veru li Chetcuti ħabib tiegħek imma tiġix iżżeffen id-dritt u l-imgħawweġ biex tiddefendih. 

Ħadd m&#039;hu jċaħħdu mid-dritt li jippoża għarwien (jew kważi), imma daqstant ieħor irid jerfa&#039; r-responsabilta&#039; ta&#039; ghemilu. Chetcuti (għandi nifhem) mhux xi ħamallu komuni  u allura messu qagħad aktar attent. Issa tiġix tgħidli li anke l-ħamalli għandhom id-drittijiet tagħhom għax mhux dak il-punt.   

Joseph Chetcuti ġie appuntat, u hu aċċetta, kariga pubblika u għalhekk bħala ċittadini, dan il-fatt jinteressana (mhux ir-ritratti fihom innifishom) għax juri li minħabba n-nuqqas ta&#039; ġudizzju tiegħu, Chetcuti mhux adattat li jservi fuq l-ebda kariga pubblika/governattiva.]]></description>
