This country is run by clowns and hypocrites.

And yet he’s still fussing and complaining.

Should the previous administration have felt doubly insulted? It would be interesting to know, once he has decided to broach the subject, what he thinks an appropriate salary will be.

By these standards we should haveng the most competent government ever, given the cabinet is almost entirely composed of millionaires.

Current cabinet salaries attract only third rate, incompetent fools to government.

I can tell you. Headline:

‘PL MP’s to take pay-cut of €10,000 and donate the money to the needy, the LGBT movement, the environment and the rest will go to strengthening democracy in Malta after 25 years of EUU-sponsored poverty, corruption and rampant abuse’.

Those reds will believe anything.

I hope so. People like Edward Scicluna have worked hard for their reputation and career, no matter their political leanings.

How does he feel now to have had his reputation, and career, hijacked by a 40-year-old jerk who never had an honest political thought in his life? Unless he knew all the details of course.

What goes around comes around.
