But wait, what is Merkel looking at? A dead rat? Konrad Adenaur’s name tag? Or is she looking for her masonic ring as Martin ‘Rottweiler’ Schulz sniffs his way in.
Then there’s the gay French President who was saved by a ‘mistress’ hoax. Has he just been hit by the question? Barroso seems to find the whole affair rather amusing. They all do. Look at them.
Except, of course, our Joseph, always the visionery, beaming into the distant future, even as the Irish Taoseach, Enda Kenny spots a fair young damsel in distress and has just worked out a plan.
All under the auspices of the All seeing eye. Because that’s how the EU flag is being portrayed lately. Seems they are not afraid of showing who they really are any more.
That’s what happens to people who lift weights whilst still fat. Muscle grows under the many layers of fat, and they seem like a balloon ready to burst.
No need for red arrow I’d day. Suit 2 sizes too small, robotic posture and yes barely Maltese average height, and of course isolated, not really difficult to miss, is it, oh sorry, is he.
One question: The CCTV images show a man who appears to be bald. THE Nicholas Grech seems to have a headful of hair. Doesn’t seem possible that hair grows back from a shaven state in such a short time. How could these CCTV images have been used as evidence in court?
I can’t say I’m sartorially impressed by anyone there, except Merkel. She IS her suit. As for the men, they’re all heads of government, and they all look as if they’ve been MADE to wear their suits.
No panache at all. Just two pocket squares and a bow tie. It’s a shame David Cameron has hidden himself, because it looks like he gets the award for best cut suit.
A big round of applause to the schoolboy on the left front row who gatecrashed the photo after scoffing all the crumpets.
It must dawning to him by now that a majority of 36,000 votes is not gauged as popularity in mainland Europe, indeed his snide remarks and pseudo English humour nourish pity rather than sympathy.
The man is popular with a certain kind of majority that is thankfully non-influential elsewhere in Europe. Sadly it throws the rest of us into the same pot.
Similar to the notion that all French eat frogs and all Italians are Mafia, I am sure that to the rest of the EU we are gradually being generalised into a nation of fools where the village idiot stands out as being the most gifted.
Muscat really…stands out.
Yes, in completely the wrong way. He looks oh-so-uncomfortable, too.
You mean , trying to.
For the wrong reasons.
What the heck?
It looks like the other leaders are all asking one another “Who farted?” And the answer to the question cannot be clearer from the picture.
Hack
Looks like he’s getting ready to stamp his foot.
Angela Merkel is looking for Muscat, but in the wrong place.
We know who ate all the canapes.
You know you’re not popular when you’re welcomed by total indifference.
When your pal David Cameron distances himself as remotely as possible.
And when someone shows adversity to the ‘Flogging Passports’ issue by writing ‘European Rat’ on that board.
I bet they have been told to avoid him. Enda Kenny will need to make sure Muscat doesn’t grab hold of him this time.
This picture deserves a million captions.

U se tibgħatilha d-dragun biex issalvaha! lol.
I think Muscat’s jacket must have shrunk in the wardrobe. The creases near the button hole are showing that the jacket is under stress.
Could it be because of the daily gym workouts?
If this is what they call a family photo, I can spot who the black sheep is.
It is pertinent to note that Cameron is right opposite on the other side back row.
That photo is worth a thousand words.
Castaway

Nature’s secrets are all too easy to get hold of and apply. But the mind does need to work in the same direction.
Thank God that Simon Busuttil’s full countenance shows a man who, as the saying goes, is “bien dans sa peau.”
I find that reassuring.
The picture seems to have been taken in a hurry, the photographer might have realized that he could have been sniped down by a button.

The odd one out in so many ways. What an embarrassment this guy is.

Jaqq. Can’t we have a more relaxed and less pretentious PM? Simon Busuttil would surely fit in better.
Muscat who?
and our PM has the cheek to tell others that they are “isolated” …… it’s called projecting one’s feelings on to others
Superman, to the rescue.
Or so he thinks.
He is smelling the coffee
Classic

Muscat looks like a young Churchill, bulldog look and all. You do us proud Joey.
Except he commands an airstrip of a country, not an empire.
Isolated from everyone except his clique.
Imma miskin kif dejjem fit-tarf ipogguh?
And that button…oh dear…I hope the stitching is reinforced

Baxxter you’re hilarious. Thanks for the good laugh.
Attributed to George Bernard Shaw:
” democracy is a devise that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve”
It must be something to do with his blend of coffee. They smelt it and they don’t like it.

One would expect him to be at least among the arrival photographs.

Oops, sorry he’s not there.
OK try this batch then

No, no luck either.

He’s been working on his Mussolini-Putin pose. If he could he’d commission Jacques-Louis David to paint him.
Oh good Lord no.

That creepy Barroso is putting on weight prodigiously. His legs are starting to look like Muscat’s.
And as Daphne memorably put it, “with all that money sloshing around”, surely he can afford a pair of lace-ups?
Easier with those kind of shoes as he probably would not be able to do up his laces, not with al the weight he has gained.
I thought he had an army of EU-salaried underlings to do that.
That’s a sorry bunch of leaders in the photo, if ever I saw one. Compare and contrast:

Qiesu lest ghal xi glieda ! Kif ma poggiex hdejn Hollande forsi kien ikolli ftit attenzjoni minghandu
Very clearly ignored by the rest

Muscat was late so they brought in his wax mannequin from Madame Tussauds.
That posture seems to be more like an imitation of a Putinesque show-off, but in a suit instead of a bare chested pose.
