Thank you.

If I were you I’d warm them up for better effect.

Don’t let 36,000 votes fool you, mate. In 22 months, Alfred Sant’s big victory became a big loss. And Muscat’s big victory was mainly the result of boredom and restlessness (the two factors, incidentally, which have been a main spur to war in history) and colossal spin.

I happened to mute the debate and REALLY look at the speakers. ‘Stateman like and in control’ are not what came to mind. Incongruent and, because of his power, chilling, yes. But then I do not think that clowning and ridicule are commendable attributes in a leader.

The last 20 mins is where you will find both threats.

Look, I don’t really have an opinion on this but I have found it talked about in at least one mainstream nationalist newspaper of the Right:

The referendum is being organised mostly by the Lega Nord separatists and Indipendenza Veneta.

For those familiar with Veneto, Luca Zaia the Governor of Veneto states:

nel cuore d’ogni veneto ‘ghe xè on Leon, miga on cojon’.

Thanks for alerting me, Purdie, but I never took your advice. Were you very sick?

Schnapps, Daphne. It’s helping me follow our dear leaders’ grand debate on last Friday’s Xarabank.

And you’re one blind fan if you think Simon was impressive. Only such a poor show could have caused Joseph Muscat to appear so statesmanlike and clearly in control. The sooner Simon’s sent to grass the brighter the PN’s prospects in 2018.

I will not mince words. I generally dislike the Greens, but in Germany they did become a force to be reckoned with and formed government in several Grand Coalition’s, nationally or on a regional basis. The German Greens are a viable party.

Therefore, to say that there are no Greens Prime Ministers in the EU is technically true but it is to deny that the EU’s engine room had a Greens – SPD (Socialist) government as recently as 2005 which, as it happens, was also rather successful.

Jeez, Kevvy. you gotta stop snorting that stuff in the vacuum cleaner.

Just returned from Liverpool. All Arriva buses operating on schedule.
Asked some people at a bus stop, ‘Happy with Arriva?’. All responded, ‘Of course, why do you ask?’
