The mayor of Zurrieq, who waxes people for a living, is in Copenhagen with the Maltese delegation, isn’t he? Perhaps he can offer a discount on his services.

In reply to Liberal Jo Centezmi.

I watched the clip. The yellow trousers felt like razor blades slashing my eyes.

Let us reminisce:

In reply to Natalie. You said "stiff". 12 points for innuendo. I can do the backing vocals.

In reply to Natalie. As a child, I aspired to become a Eurovision singer. If Malta really wants to send its worst just to join in with making fun of the show, the Maltese commission should seriously consider sending me. I promise to be the most off-tune, stiff singer on the stage.

In reply to ciccio.

Believe it or not, she has quite a good voice and the song isn’t too bad when you compare it to the rubbish that’s being sent by other countries.

You see, I’m hopelessly addicted to Eurovision, and follow it avidly. It’s one of my incurable vices. I know that there are plenty of bad songs but you find good songs too. Unfortunately, this year’ s edition is projected to be very boring though.

Because of the impending MEP elections, this year it is not politically convenient for TVM to show the Maltese band with the participant from Azerbaijan.

Did they actually travel to Baku for the promo tour this year?

It was not like that last year with Mammadov.

They had brought him over to Malta, and he was on Hadd Ghalik.

And, to the delight of HP Baxxter, he was also on Xarabank.

“Television Malta brazenly promotes the Labour Party’s electoral chant”

Not only. Expect the following on the night of the Eurovision.

“And now we go to MALTA for their vote.”

Following which, Joanne Cassar appears on the screen from PBS:

“Hello Europe, Hello Copenhagen, this is Malta calling. What a wonderfullll showw tonight. You were phenomenal. Wow, what a positive energy…wow. Here is the result of the Maltese televoting…

…And, our douze point go to….Conchita Wurst.”

We know that the Eurovision is popular with the LGBT community. So TVM is probably influencing their televoting here in Malta.

This government loves to laud the ludicrous and the absurd and wants us to think that in doing so they are liberal. But that is not the true test of liberalism.
