The warders were arraigned separately before Magistrates Edwina Grima and Natasha Galea-Sciberras.

    At last. He’s in the news again. It must have been so painful for him being ignored for so long.

    So the Law Commissioner is defence counsel to drug-using prison warders, the action against whom was kick-started by the Home Affairs/Police Minister. Fine lot of principled clowns, I say.

    Where is Franco Debono, that clown who screamed and whined for meritocracy, rule of law and proper and due process? No word in favour of Norman Vella? No word against the Police Commissioner’s continued abuse of law and due process?

    Pulcinell.

    Franco Debono will defend scum of any sort. These days, I am almost scared of taking a dump lest he pop up in order to defend my droppings from being flushed down the tubes.

    What a most magnificent career for this overrated underachiever (bar his form 2c results).
