You remember the Depasquale motion which also, if I recall correctly, was not supported by the opposition.

Well said mm.

But I also believe that journalists are too scared to report out of self preservation and I don’t blame them to a certain extent.

But we are “gullible idiots”! There is the result of the last general election as proof.

Herrera did nothing wrong by attending the party. In my view the only wrong thing that happened, was the stupid call for the arrest of a journalist. full stop

All parties have now been barred

You are so right, birds of a feather.

It would be very interesting to gather recent judgements of these two and examine how they came to their conclusions because I know for sure that important facts have been left out on occasion. This led to the impairment of justice thereby giving merit where merit was not due.

This anomaly may have been carried out to accommodate others not directly involved in the case but who may have had an interest.

The MLP is definitely doing one thing right ; for the past few years it has served as a trash can for all the vermin crawling out of the PN woodwork, like JPO, Franco Debono, Peralta etc. My only problem would be if it suddenly decided to adopt a re-cycling policy.

[Daphne – That’s exactly what it has done.]

[Daphne – There is absolutely no point in bringing an impeachment motion before parliament unless you know you have the support of the Opposition. Fenech Adami definitely tried to have Carol Peralta impeached. There was the freemasonry business, but the deciding factor was crimes of violence committed against a woman. He did not have the support of Alfred Sant’s party and the motion never reached parliament, but yes, there was most definitely an attempt at impeaching him. So, David, you are wrong again. That’s what comes of taking things literally.]

Plans for other similar courtroom parties have now gone up in smoke.
