Franco Debono claims on Facebook that ‘he did not renew his Law Commissioner contract’
This neurotic says on Facebook that he is no longer Law Commissioner. Will the government please do its duty and inform the public accordingly in an official statement. The situation where we have to browse Facebook to find out what should be the contents of a government press release is now beyond ridiculous. It is offensive and undemocratic.
Franco Debono has claimed on Facebook that he “did not renew” his “Law Commissioner contract”.
He did not renew it? It’s the government which renews or does not renew, because it is the government which gives the contract and the appointee who accepts it or otherwise.
Anyway, this is now beyond ridiculous. The Law Commissioner was an invented appointment, an iced bun for a crazy man who did the Labour Party a favour. But it remains a state appointment nonetheless, public office, paid for out of the public purse, and so the public should not have to discover through random perusal of odd Facebook pages that holders of significant public office no longer hold that office.
The prime minister’s office, or Saint Owen Bonnici’s, the new minister for justice, should release a statement informing the public at once that Malta no longer has a Law Commissioner and why.

…and a report on Franco Debono’s achievements as Law Commissioner.
Uzah u rmih and more to follow.
Obviously!
What Franco Debono did pre-election was perfectly democratic – his style, motives and narcisim do not come into that – but he lost all credibility once he rubbed shoulders with the Labout mob.
It was anything but democratic. Please, Joe Fenech, you’re more intelligent than that.
A democratic MP is one who serves his constituents, and more particularly his electors’ intentions. Franco Debono’s electors voted for him on a PN ticket. As soon as he was elected he started working against his own party. Thus going against his electors’ democratic choice.
And you call it perfectly democratic?
Did Franco Debono, one fine day, turn into a monster? Unlikely. A majority of the Maltese vote irresponsibly, so tough tits!
Yes, Franco! Inti c-Champion! Kemm inti bravu, kemm hawn ftit nies bhalek f’Malta!
Ilek tibbrilla mill-form 2.
Kont kapaci tilhaq avukat izda ghadek tifel go mohhok. Jekk ma tilghabx thassar. Issa spiccajt imwarrab minn kulhadd, u se tibqa mfakkar bhala dak li ma jafx jahdem fi grupp.
Anke fil-football u fil-glied tas-sriedak, dan il-bniedem hekk kien. Irid jaghti corner hu, penalty jrid itih hu, riedha tal-Baggio, u spicca relegant.
U jekk is-serduq tieghu qieghed jitlef, jaqbdu u jmur jigri ‘l hemm bih.
Some weeks ago, Franco Debono was appointed adviser to the Office of The Prime Minister on the Justice Report with a salary of 17,000 euros a year.
Apart from that he is appearing in court as Enemalta’s lawyer in the criminal proceedings on the tampering of smart meters.
Franco appointed advisor to the PM the moment he starts moaning eh?
This is Roald Dahl weird.

This meant bedtime.
Interesting. How did he get patronage of the case ? Direct order ? Or was it friend of a friend or mama`s ?
The Nationalist Party is getting in on the Moviment action.
This does not look good.
It looks like they’re copying the Labour Party.
They should present themselves as the complete opposite, the antithesis to all the ħamallaġni and moviment group-think that Labour stand for.

The Nationalist Party is not using the term ‘Movement’. It’s Times of Malta which used that term.
What’s wrong in having think-tanks within a party?
Incidentally, has the Permanent Commission against Corruption (Chapter 326 of the Laws of Malta) been reconstituted, and if so, who are its members at the moment? I have been unable to find anything online.
This joke of a person is still attracting media attention. Why doesn’t he eff off once and for all?
Are you sitting down, Sparky? Please sit down and brace yourself. Take a deep breath.
Because this joke will still be attracting media attention forty years from now. It’s the Maltese way. From Anglu Farrugia to Karmenu Vella to Yana Mintoff they’re all there, still at it. Still hogging the limelight. And still getting paid out of our money.
He will be President of the Republic in forty years from now. Taking over from a joint presidency between Jaffrey Pullicino Orlando and Jasmint Mugliett.
Thanks a lot! So by your reckoning, am I going to be lumped with Muscat et al until I am well into my 80s?
Kevin, yes, and I am assuming you are 20 years old. That’s because 60 years from now, Muscat will appoint another “woman” president: Ira Losco, in her 90s.
Yes, that’s about the size of it. By that time, Yana Mintoff will be about 150 years old, still wearing a beret (now with wellies), and still directing Labour’s China and Henley outreach programme. Muscat, of course, will be a sprightly, energetic, 90 year old zaghzugh, the ginger fuzz now flecked with just a hint of silver, the smirk as wide as ever.
Like a dumpy, pudgy Hugh Hefner.
Ciccio, no I am in my late 40s so I’ll miss a nonagenarian Ira Losco and Joseph Muscat.
Perhaps Santa Maria Goretti could intercede here to spare us from a beret touting Yana and a ginger zghazugh in the year 2074.
Baxxter, Hefner can ‘keep it up’ in his eighties. Little Joey? Je ne sais pas. Looks a bit limpid.
Limp. Limpid is my Ritienne, like a mountain stream in the early morn. Or was.
Joseph Muscat will have a big problem in 2018. He will have to fight an electoral campaign when he’s visibly no longer the fresh item on the menu. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but his strategy from day one has been continuous revolution, in true Maoist fashion. And very like any marketing strategy. On fad replaces another. The Fat King is the Fad King.
It was this constant effort to come up with new “proposti” (“policy proposals” doesn’t quite convey the monumentality of the Maltese word), that was Lawrence Gonzi’s undoing. It will yet be Joseph Muscat’s.
Again, my dears, you’re all jealous because he’s such a handsome habrieki man and a top criminal lawyer.
X’qieghed tghid Baxx? Dak champion.
Baxxter, you really mean it? Do you find that pompous garden gnome handsome?
There’s three things I never joke about: women, money, and cocks.
You can like about the cock-fancier. He’s not a woman or money. He’s just a prick.
He was paid what, €24.000 for the year. Muscat should release a report of what Franco Debono accomplished during this one year as a commissioner of law.
He was really paid good money to make all that drama against the PN. Now I have to ask him: was it worth it?
To me you are Guda. Ragel ta’ sold u nofs konna nghidu.
I do not wish to sully this page, which bears an image of the noble lineaments of the national cockerel, but, er, he did accomplish a lot in the, shall we say, intrapersonal sphere, what?
I thought Labour might have sent him to be crowned President, like they sent him to debate on Xarabank.
There is but a positive here: if he stands for election, he will lose terribly. Then he won’t be able to stuff it in our faces endlessly like he did last year – about how he beat Louis Galea to a seat in parliament and all that. I hope he goes for it and realises just what a waste of time he is.
He will contest the election to have the opportunity to get his back at the Nationalist Party.
The PN should be extra cautious when its candidates are invited on some TV shows.
Protesting to the Broadcasting Authority would be a futile exercise once the people are fed free entertainment by this crass and ill-bred son of a barmaid interrupting, gesticulating and pontificating about Gladio and his five year stint as an MP, at the expense of polite and learned people forming the PN MEP team.
Can anyone imagine Ray Bugeja confronting Franco Debono?
Anyone who worked with Helga Ellul would tell you that the only candidate who can handle him is the street wise Helga Ellul – but there’s the language barrier when Helga counter attacks. It would be “talk” against “job creation”.
Having another editorial on The Malta Independent on Sunday stating ‘What’s a nice man like you doing there?’ won’t fix the damage in a day.

Yes we insist on a report on the performance and achievement of this top student.
“Franco Debono has claimed on Facebook that he “did not renew” his “Law Commissioner contract”.”
I have the strangest feeling he expected to be made the head of state.
Ask Ciccio.

That’s work in progress. It will be the basis of his recommendations when he presents his report on the Constitution for the Second Republic. Remember he is also being paid for his role as Coordinator of the Constitutional Convention – unless he had resigned that position as well without our knowledge.
Frankie Tabone has finally thrown in the towel.
Deo Gratias.
Franco is giving us the impression that someone posted that comment on his behalf.
Oh my goodness, not Franco again!
Where is his report of the law commission.
I think the Law Commissioner was a post which existed also in the past and was occupied by Dr Edgar Mizzi.
[Daphne – Edgar Mizzi was chairman of the Law Revision Commission, and not Law Commissioner. There is no Law Commission now. There is/was only Franco Debono.]
It’s like the stars are about to align lately.
This one never did anything without an agenda. He did the same with the PN, made it clear he had resigned from that one as well, before proceeding to lay waste into everything that crossed his path.
If he does, it won’t be the PN to lose out. The fact Saviour’s taking it up means they’re wary of the damage he can do.
One wonders how long this contract renewal business has been going on. As if this impromptu ‘insititutional’ role requires contracts being discussed and renewed.
By the way, where are the reports he was supposed to deliver? I think I can hear Lawrence Gonzi giggling.
The PN to preempt him at once. Now, before tomorrow Monday, Push him onto Muscat’s PL unequivocally. Let him do the rest.
There is an agenda – of sorts. He’s just cloned himself again. As Franco Debono IV.

Ara dik il-harsa innocenti. Kif tista’ ma tivvotalux?
Ma niddejjaq xejn kieku jerga jigi mal-PN.
Mieghu igib hafna nies lura.
Il-PN qed jerga jissahhah u hafna qed ihossu li li tkun PN hi xi haga cool.
Il-PL tilef dik il-karizma li kellu.
Elves.
“This is now beyond ridiculous”. Well and truly said.
Any further comment absolutely not necessary.
