In fact it was Cassola who won the debate. He made Muscat look like a little boy being told off at school whilst showing Busuttil how to use charisma and powerful debating skills to show up his opponents – respectfully.

In reply to socrates. Bil-Malti nghidu "pastaz jaf ftit skola" Mhux talli jibqa' pastaz, anzi talli jsir aktar. Hekk jinghogob mal-marmalja cwiec li jadurawh.

Dr. Joseph Muscat , our knowall PM, has no idea that freeport containerships enter the freeport through Marsaxlokk.

He must be so confused about Marsamxett, Marsascala, Marsaxlokk, Marsa l-forn that shows how much he cares about the locals and proves that he knows perfectly nothing about Malta’s geography.

This extremely irritating fallacious logic is now invariably used by all Labour voters, be they “new” or “old” Labour. It makes me want to scream.

It is a very easy and consequently childish and immature way to win every argument. It serves to debilitate the adversary by putting him or her on the defensive and taking the focus off the issue.

Ever so tiresome and definitely not a suitable debating tool for a PM.

Can the prime minister tell us how many people were put on the government payroll since last March?

That sort of debate should take place without the usual Xarabank audience. Then the prime minister will be forced to answer to the real issues instead of playing to his narrow audience.

In reply to ciccio.

Check Rajoy’s performance in opposition – he was quiet, polite, peaceful and just gave the Spanish Socialists enough rope. Then he went on to win a landslide absolute majority in 2011, which is very rare in Spain. Busuttil’s polite manner will win back the lost votes as well as the many people who abstained last election.

In reply to just me. Jien niskanta kif ghadu ma ddecidiex li jibda jahdem mid-dar tieghu minflok ma jmur Kastilja. Kieku ikun jista anke jikri d-dar tieghu lilu nnifsu, forsi jiehu xi 50 elf ewro ohra fis-sena.

The PM has lied through his teeth when he said that the sale of the Maltese passport was considered by him after the elections. What about the meetings he had with Henley and Partners before the election. Barefaced liar!
