There is also this one:

Then Simon Busuttil goes to Parliament and asks stupid questions, such as “why did you bring them to Malta”. Can’t he even try to be on the right side of history?

Most Maltese are incapable of stringing a sentence together without the interjection of one or two erm errs. I just can’t take it any more.

[Daphne – Be kind. First they must marshal their thoughts, then they must scroll through their limited lexicon for an approximation of what they mean. The ‘errrr’ fills the aural void while this is happening.]

[Daphne – The Petit Trianon is the house. Le Petit Hameau/Le Hameau de la Reine is the whole thing. Hameau means hamlet and hamlets were originally a single farmstead.]

Note to Ramona Attard who was interviewed by the BBC, was all you could string together the usual slogans and that Malta can’t take this invasion, etc etc? How venial.

So we’ve been landed with 1800 since January eh? Wow, that less than 2 immigrants every 400 Maltese, Ramona.

And do please look up this country’s policies before spluttering erms and umms. So what if Malta has the highest pro capita acceptance of refugee applications? I should think so, perhaps Iceland could do better, but then who’s landing there?

And did you notice how the journalist preferred speaking to the survivors, who were much more articulate and, crucially, authentic in what they had to say than your lines?.

A good read indeed which puts Muscat’s gripe well into a wider context. Bottom line, his whine is starting to irritate even our nearest and dearest neighbours.

Thank you.
