A double yellow line means absolutely no stopping at all (except in an emergency) not even to load/unload merchandise or people. I wouldn’t be surprised if in this case the rule would be applied universally and without discrimination and that wardens won’t appear or disappear as the occasion demands.

That area has hit the headlines three times in the past few months.

1. Pre election MLP club brawl a few metres up the street, in which a man was nearly killed.

2. The St. Joseph feast incident in which Daphne was harassed by Labour mayor Natius Farrugia, two women from the Labour Party club and several others, with Daphne taking refuge in the convent just opposite Marlene Mizzi’s toy shop.

3. The Serkin (Crystal Palace) brawl involving the Law Commissioner and the chairman of the Malta Council for Science and Technology.

The place is almost 100% Labour.

She does not have a bad figure for a woman in her late 50s.

I met her husband’s driver a few years back, delivering toys to my son’s childcare centre – hallas poplu.

The yellow lines are just as worn and faded as the white box lines. Might well be that the former preceded the latter. Whatever the case, it seems to fit the bill excellently for Marlene.

Some double yellow lines are just street decorations it seems.

In the street where I live in Rabat there is a double yellow line which is taken up by a fish hawker every day with his van sometimes jutting out into the adjacent street.

In this same street there is a reserved space for a woman who died a decade ago.

Those potted plants outside the Early Leeching Centre are causing an obstruction on the narrow pavement.

Perhaps that’s why Marlene’s had the parked cars removed – so that people can walk in the road instead.

Don’t worry, Daphne. That whole area is full of Labourites. That will teach them.

Slowly and stealthily they are all getting what they want. Where’s the much vaunted transparency? Ghand iz-zija.
