Level 87 on Candy Crush is a real bugger.

But perhaps poor Anglu did not know which one of the two in clerical robe is the Pope.

Both Anglu Farrugia and Michelle Muscat were expecting instructions from someone on what protocol required them to do next.

As usual in Malta the person at the other end of the telephone was having tea, had temporarily left his post or was himself asking elsewhere for the information required.

That left both the inarticulate Speaker and the “mart il-Prim Ministru” literally lost for words, or simply lost.

After all, neither of them is really used to “the high society”, in spite of the constant posing and pretending.

Maybe he would have pushed the Pope aside and canonised himself?

I exuded confidence wherever I went and with whomsoever I met.

Today, thanks to the manifest inexperience and crass incompetence of our new leaders, I cringe every time I am asked to explain what is happening on our island. Although clearly shocked and disappointed by the election result last year, I privately hoped that the change would breathe new life and energy into the island’s economic fabric and lead to something better.

Instead, it’s one step after another down the road to degradation at every level. They simply don’t have what it takes to run a country.

Looking for her mowbajl to take a selfie with her friend the Pope.

But the Speaker of the House actually makes a phone call while standing 2 metres away from the pope.

Note to self: Purchase citizenship from St Kitts ASAP and get the hell out of this dump run by morons.

2. He did not realize he was so close to the Pope. His sense of awareness is about as keen as that of a blind goldfish.

3. He did not realize he was/will be photographed. Who would have thought that the photographers will be actually taking photos?
