They don’t want you to write but they need you.
If you think about it, what will they do without you and it will be just as bad for us who follow your blog (though for different reasons).
While we admit it, they never will.
Amazing. Daphne, having to explain to the dunderheads proper protocol. On the other hand, who else?
One of the members of the foreign affairs department was in charge of protocol. Does that position still exist or did the PM do away with the post together with the Perm Secs?
He is still watching you.
I don’t know how he does it but he does it.
Well it seems that they read your blog.
No, they don’t. As a matter of fact, no one reads the blog tas-sahhara. It’s just a coincidence.
True. No one reads this blog. Even the website Alexa has got it all wrong…

I see that when they painted that wall, they didn’t bother to remove the president’s portrait and paint beneath it. U mhux xorta, min se jara hawn wara, said the fossilised Mintoffian haddiem tal-gvern.
Typical Maltese attitude.
Typical Maltese cavalier attitude.
Government by Daphne.
Same with the government’s own shop in Valletta opposite St. John’s Cathedral, promoting Maltese craftwork (arloggi tal-lira) etc.
I was there yesterday looking at an ex-president’s picture hanging on the wall.
“The government is using illegal billboards in information campaigns funded by taxpayers’ money, Times of Malta can confirm.
Some of them, including the one in Msida circus, are covered by Mepa enforcement notices and had been used by the Labour Party in the electoral campaign.
A spokesman for the Prime Minister did not deny the government was using illegal billboards but when asked to state why, he said: “The legal regime regulating educative, cultural, political or social adverts is different from that applicable to commercial adverts.””
