UPDATED WITH VIDEO: President Coleiro is on One Night Stand on Super One TV.

Published: April 29, 2014 at 10:01pm

President Coleiro didn’t bother to accept an invitation to the Vatican to join other heads of state from around the world at the canonisation of two popes.

But she’s found the time – and more crucially still, considers it entirely right and proper – to accept an invitation from the Labour Party’s television station, to be a guest on a cheap and vulgar chat show called One Night Stand.

She’s on right now, talking about how she’s introduced electricity-saving measures at San Anton Palace by telling the servants not to switch on the main lights when they move from one room to another, but only table-lamps.

And she’s also revealed how she’s come up with a terrific way of earning money for the Community Chest Fund (hold your breath): HIRING OUT THE PRIVATE GARDENS OF THE PALACE TO COUPLES WHO WANT TO FILM THEIR “PRE-WETTINK VITEOS” THERE.

How crass.

You really have to watch this – I’m watching it and thinking ‘Is this our head of state?’

I told you she’d be the worst president we ever had bar Agatha Barbara. And it’s taken only a few days to get there.

NOW SHE’D SHOWING US HER HOLIDAY SNAPS WITH EDGAR.

Oh good grief, now she’s talking about her ricetti and how she reads her emails in bed meta tistenbah. Any moment now and it’s going to be the rosary she says with Edgar.

Her host has just asked her how she felt about her six-hour installation ceremony: “HEQQ U, TKUN ECITATA HU GHAX XI HAGA GDIDA HU.”

    Tal-misthija.

  2. Mat says:

    She shouldn’t be on TV chat shows in her position as head of state, let alone on the Labour Party station. Very disappointed.

    • Mandy says:

      And, on a show called “One Night Stand”, of all things. Make one wonder about her possibly colourful, pre-holy past.

  3. The Observer says:

    At an utter loss for words, except in Maltese: nixtieq l-art tiblani.

    Is it possible that there is not one person who can teach Her Excellency not to stoop so low?

    [Daphne – She’s not stooping. That’s her usual level.]

    • observer says:

      Were she to stoop, she may still have something to conquer.

      That, however, is now out of the question with the way she has been making an utter fool of herself and her new position as head of state.

    In brief, REPUBBLIKA TAL-BANANA IMMEXXIJA MINN CORMA INKOMPETENTI – PRESIDENT LABURISTA TINTEN.

  6. canon says:

    Penny wise and pound foolish. How much did her investiture cost the taxpayer?

  7. albona says:

    Welcome to Venezuela.

  8. anthony says:

    The country has the head of state it deserves.

    No more and no less

    • Tabatha White says:

      No country deserves this.

      That expression is overused and overrated.

      • Weird no ? says:

        I don’t think so. A majority chose of us chose this. If anything a government carries the symptoms of the state of mind and of education of the country.

      • Tabatha White says:

        @ Weird no?

        I think that as a consequence of our history, our tolerance levels as a general population are very high.

        When a scam is in operation, such as this Government is and and the Labour Party was in the running to the elections, such as all Ponzi scams are, one doesn’t say the victims of the scam “deserved it,” one prosecutes the runners of the scam.

        One prosecutes all those involved – including the wives, for the role they played in perpetrating the scam.

        Only in our case, there is no one to prosecute Madoff yet because the scam keeps on running.

        When the scam is seen for what it is, and the tolerance levels begin to fall, people will begin to realise that no, Malta does not deserve this.

        No country does.

        No single person does – whatever their creed, whatever their age.

    Tal-misthija ta’ veru ta, ha nghidlek. Next thing she’ll be on Ilsien in-Nisa discussing more stupid nonsense, maybe giving us common mortals some useful tips on how to apply make-up, choose our underwear, and why not, xi indiskrezzjoni pikkanti ohra dwar x’taghmel fis-sodda ma’ Edgar. Totally crass.

    • Tabatha White says:

      Do you think Labour still films everything?

      I’m surprised any of them can sleep at night knowing Muscat’s bent for wanting to preempt time by “designing” “solutions,” picking up “energija posittiva” where he can find it at precarious rates.

    Itik li tibki.

  11. AMG says:

    That’s why football matches on TV are my choice.

  12. Joe Fenech says:

    These hamalli dwell in a f**king parallel universe.

  13. Jb says:

    And how exactly did she conclude that table lamps consume less? My light savers definitely consume much less than most table-lamps.

    Vera Presidentessa bozza ta’ l-gherf ghandna.

  14. Mario Pace says:

    The President’s head of protocol, if he exists, should be booted out.

  15. H.P. Baxxter says:

    Eccellenza Hamalla or Hamalla Eccellenti?

    • Sufa says:

      Hamalla prima klassi, bil-lip-liner generalment izjed oskur mil-lipstick, bhal dak tac-criecer.

      • Weird no ? says:

        Sena ilu kienet qieghda tghajjar lil ufficjal pubbliku quddiem il-gurnalisti dwar nuqqas ta’ sapuniera f’kamra tal-banju. Tistenna ahjar ?

  16. Persil says:

    She must now understand that the position of the President of the Republic is different to being a Minister.The post should be kept in high esteem .

  17. Wilson says:

    It is unbelievable that a president discusses electricity consumption at the palace and the rental of presidential gardens for pre-wedding videos.

    If one leaves the Labour Party to its own devices it will self destruct. Only a few years left, in the meantime could the Nationalist Party organize itself? Please.

  18. C C says:

    Hiring out the private garden for pre-wedding videos? She could throw in Peter Paul Zammit’s catering corps while she’s at it.

  19. H.P. Baxxter says:

    Pre-tied bow.

    Black shirt.

    Tan jacket.

    When THESE are the nation’s official aesthetic values, is there any hope? All the rest – the Kularju hamallagni, the sleaze, the corruption, the colonisation by China – is just a consequence.

    A camp-looking, ill-dressed yobboid TV host getting up close and personal with Her Excellency, as if it were a party at Hugo’s.

    • ciccio says:

      Next TV appearance for Her Excellency: Arani Issa.

      Later: Liquorish.

      • H.P. Baxxter says:

        They’ve all been to Xarabank, and that includes everyone from the Opposition. You can’t get any more hamallu than that.

        I was thinking there might be a niche for a political party that refuses TV appearances unless it’s a proper debate or interview.

      • ciccio says:

        Baxxter, Malta’s ‘debate’ TV programmes are the equivalent of the shop windows in Amsterdam’s red light district.

  20. P Shaw says:

    Maybe the guy from Arani Issa should play the violin naked in the pre-wedding videos filmed in the Presidential gardens.

  21. Wonderland says:

    Hmmm, Good idea for a good cause.

    May I suggest to President Coleiro to enhance this idea and get it better organised, suggesting higher donations if couples (or even individuals or groups for all that matters) to have photo shoots in the actual President Palace’s more private rooms?

    Why not also organise TV culinary shows shot directly from the real (actual) President’s kitchen? Or allow some halls for corporate banquets or similar functions, against donations, obviously.

    The list of possibilities is endless. We are really very lucky to have a very enterprising President, and very liberal too. Good luck Mrs President.

  22. Eve says:

    Nisthi minflokha. Dalwaqt narawha f’xi talk show bhal Ilsien In-Nisa fuq Super one.

    Possibli din temmen li b’hekk tkun aktar qrib il-poplu?

    Wara kollox, President ta’ pajjiz mhuwiex qieghed hemm biex jisma lil poplu. F’dal kaz,messha baqghet fil-parlament.

  23. il-Ginger says:

    PN tried so hard to dispell this, jahasra, but the bitter truth is that we’re nothing more than a banana republic ex-colony that should have been absorbed by its neighbours a long time ago.

  24. Plotinus says:

    Good thing it’s a one-night-stand as a wouldn’t be able to sit through another episode of Her Excellency The President of The Republic of Malta showing her worth. She even expressed her surprise when a soldier addressed her position with respect.

  25. manum says:

    Dalwaqt nibdew nikkru xi mezzanin parti mil-palazz sabiex ingibu fondi ghal Community Chest Fund.

  26. La Redoute says:

    “San Anton Palace from now onwards can be used by couples, including gays and lesbians who can now tie the knot after she signed the bill on civil unions approved by Parliament, to pose for photographs before they get married, she said.”

    How patronising and offensive.
