100% correct. So now as per the prime minister’s wishes and manoeuvres his wife fits in nicely as the first lady since the president nominee is a woman and her consort will have to fit in as the first man. This must also be a first. Only Maltese bachelors stood a chance for the seat. No wonder.

Whilst nothing surprises me any more of what this government does and who it appoints I cannot help wondering if this can be done?

Ssssh, perhaps an investigative journalist will find out more.

Are we expected not to look a gift horse in the mouth?

However, he seems more appropriate to tour the schools and read horror stories to Maltese pupils. Listening to the first man reading horror stories might get the kids into the fear spirit. He has the looks anyway.
