Oh, but it was standard fare. Eddie Fenech Adami didn&#039;t exist, at least not by name. 

The leader of the opposition was a nameless individual, a burocrat.  

National politics was internal to Labour, anzi, il-moviment tal-haddiema, where the GWU was in blissful marriage and anything else considered subversive. 

We got Joseph li jghaqqadna now. A plutocratic design, faked market, conditioned press and undisclosable deals. 

It&#039;s long term, and when the decline starts, it won&#039;t go without major backlash. The real issue is that Muscat designed a closed system, not succession or evolution. It&#039;s inherently undemocratic in self-containment. 

The fact he acknowledges &#039;nationalists&#039; but not the PN will see to his short-sighted paradox. He will, unwittingly, build the opposition himself. 

His vision is static, perversely utopic and inward looking. The people he chose vouched faith but cannot sustain it. Failure by logic and &#039;foreign&#039; forces then, is inevitable. 

It&#039;s uncanny how the intention seems to take up Sant&#039;s times with Mintoff&#039;s religion.]]></description>

Saturday late afternoon, followed by this Sherlock Holmes on Raidue.

In 1984 I discovered Nonsolomoda and saw what Malta had really been reduced to. The one thing which I&#039;ll never forgive Labour is what it did to people&#039;s soul. 

Taste, style, chic were either taboo or something to oppress with. No wonder Piano&#039;s alien to both artificial constructs. 

Cuba had music, Czechoslavakia had Prague, we had troglodytic vandals looting everything. They set bronze cannons in concrete, to use as mooring points, and it was acceptable.

Such was the rape of anything superfluous. L-orizzont keeps harping about the PN&#039;s sense of superiority. 

Wrong, it&#039;s a burden.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I think the Hamiltons have got a screw loose. Why on earth would someone who&#039;s 75 and runs a successful business want to be a high commissioner? And by the way - the HC in London is currently unmanned.  Zammit Tabona left months ago and Hamilton (when his holiness moves to the capital) is expected to go through an induction lasting a couple of months (probably to show him where the coffee, tea bags and toilet are).]]></description>
