You are silly then.

Let me rephrase: How does Lowell plan to stop immigration?

I say the EU consider North Africa as ripe for our values. Even because it will be in the interests of those states haemhorraging under the onslaught of Islamic fundamentalism and Chinese neo-colonialism.

Europe is an ideal, just like Rome.

Do you now see how limited Lowell, with his brain fried on excess Youtube is? All he does is alienate issues from the mainstream.

The problem isn’t the phenomenon, it’s the absence of a sound convinced right. Muscat tries hard but can’t shirk off his vulgarity, ergo prefers to give it a wide berth or turns it into anti-EU mumbling. Some socialist. .

That’s another space the PN can fill, given that both Muscat and Lowell use the same language; a fear of the unknown.

One is mentally deranged, the other, dim.

@ Daphne: why are you taking it like this? Bear in mind ‘symbolic’? As in ‘symbolic vote’?

[Daphne – The vote is not a symbolic act, but a personal choice. You made a personal choice to vote for Norman Lowell. You are now upset because you are being criticised for it. If you didn’t want to vote for Labour or the PN, you could have voted for AD or even for harmless Zaren tal-Ajkla. But you chose, literally CHOSE, Norman Lowell – a thief and a vicious racist who is also mentally unsound, accompanied by his long-time girlfriend Arlette Baldacchino who was so stupid at school that she didn’t even survive in the Stupid Stream and had to be held back, failing to leave school with the rest of us. I’m sorry, but if you don’t realise what this says about you, you should be worried. By ‘symbolic’ I suppose you mean ‘hu go fik’. And you actually want praise or understanding for that, when you are a grown man with some education?]

What has, in practice, came out of such a vote? My calculations and conclusions proved correct. There was no margin of error – the vote for ‘Lowell’ translated into nothing in practice. I do not speak on behalf of genuine Lowell supporters, if there are any. I am not one of them. Now it is up to the main-stream to take the hint, as they are apparently already doing in Europe.

@ La Redoubte: you enjoy sitting on that high horse, don’t you? Looking down, fantasizing and theorizing. All those who did not vote your side of the divide must be wrong; surely they don’t have a clue. Get real and don’t be so judgemental please.

[Daphne – When people express their dismay at the fact that rational people vote for mentally unbalanced candidates who lost their job at the bank where they had worked for years for embezzling around Lm1 million or so, and whose prosecution only collapsed when the file was stolen, and whose policies include human rights violations like preventing dark people from ‘breeding’ while creating a white super-race presumably made up of Middle Eastern types like him with a criminal bent and the most catastrophically stupid girl in my class at school, Arlette Baldacchino (and that’s saying something), they are not being “judgemental”. They are right to express their perplexity and concern. And you should be concerned about your choices too. Please don’t tell me you didn’t know why Norman Lowell was fired from the bank. Please don’t tell me you didn’t know he was prosecuted for embezzlement of a large amount of money. Please don’t tell me you didn’t know his policies include gross violations of human rights. Please don’t tell me you didn’t know that his sidekick Arlette is so genetically stupid (can’t you tell by listening to her?) that she didn’t even make it out of St Dorothy’s Convent – hardly the Massachusetts Institute of Technology – with the rest of us, including those who barely got a single O-level. I could go on, but I shan’t. It’s shocking, even leaving his views on ‘negroes’ and his obvious mental unsoundness aside, that you would vote for somebody like that.]

Now that you’ve mentioned Louis Grech. He gave Muscat the fabulous idea of leasing/renting his own car to himself as Prime Minister. That’s what he did when at Air Malta and he still owns that BMW. For his suaveness, he is stingy with his employees and never there to take a decision.

Well I never. There may not be 300 of us yet but I’m glad to see I’m not alone.

And anyone else can join. Try it. It’s fun.

At a recent embassy party, the great, noble and dead gorgeous Alex Sceberras Trigona was going round pressing the flesh. Everyone was in awe. The men were practically scraping the floor, the women wobbly-kneed and desperately invading his personal space.

The air was thick with compliments and niceties. The atmos. was all bonhomie and sophisticated grovelling.

Then he came round to me. So I stood to, made sure the pinstripes on my jacket and trousers were perfectly aligned, raised half an eyebrow, stiffened the upper lip and calmly sipped at my champagne. And I met his gaze with an eye like Mars, to threaten and command.

That confused the hell out of him. Was I a barrani? Was I the exhibiting artist? The ambassador’s son-in-law? Some rich and famous high-net-worth investor?

It was great to watch his growing confusion. Then he walked on towards the next group of grovelling Maltese.

See? It’s fun. Try it, and report back.

[Daphne – Not quite. Alfred Sant won his first general election.]

bob-a-job: You will find many PN activists who have experienced this first-hand.

@Another John

It is perfectly possible for thousands to be wrong, so out with the self-satisfaction that Europe is flooded with irresponsible cranks and that therefore you are right.

I encourage you to read Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds. It is stuffed with stories of people who believed they were right because so many others behaved as madly as they did.

Did you vote for Lowell and his bitch and lapdog because you expected them to be elected or because you assumed they wouldn’t be? If you did the former, you are seriously deluded (exactly how would MEP Lowell stop immigration?)

If the latter, you are madly irresponsible and completely irrational because it means you voted while hoping for a contrary outcome brought about by others not voting as you did.

Daphe, you ask why Muscat disses Busuttil all the time. The answer may be quite simply that finally he can have his come-uppance and not be dissed himself, as he was at school.

I don’t think we value the personal nature of Muscat as much as we should. The best defence in that case is a very strong attack back.

Exactly how was that a problem if it was untrue? The only reason you knew about it is in jail for life.
