Then Deputy Leader Anglu Farrugia was made to resign for a comment on a magistrate. Then what should the PM do with all the comments he’s been passing on the magistrate in this case.

Leading by example, yeah right

If the Labour government were to govern just 5 years, than they would have really brought us all to our knees and can’t find a suitable word enough to describe what state Malta would be in in four years’ time. So as much as I dread it, for the ‘good’ (whatever that may be God help us) of Malta, I hope they last longer than five years. Did I really just say that?

In reply to H.P. Baxxter. That's why it's always better to prepare for the worst. We must dig in.

Kiesah, ardit u imbecilli.

Unfortunately that is only the assessment of the minority.

And, by Jove, he knows it and takes huge advantage of it.

We happen to be the cultural and political backwater of Europe and there is nothing anyone can do about it.

Just grin and bear it.

In twenty years’ time, when the PN is desperately trying to sort out the mess and devastation, refer to the second and third decades as the Golden Years Mark II.

In reply to ciccio.

It’s a forty -year-old human.

That makes him a five-year-old dog.

Therefore an adult dog.

Some puppy.

I would give anything for the opportunity to wipe that sarcastic smirk off his face. I really don’t know how he survived in the school playground.

In reply to John T.

He can’t do otherwise, preempt argument to kill it.

He was adamant he never chose the luxury of abstaining or not taking a stand, this was yesterday.

If I’m not mistaken, he refused to take a political stand on divorce giving his MP’s the free vote.

Yet he’ll say he never did that.

Something will give, it’s his person which isn’t sustainable in Labour. There’s this shift in the press, given that perhaps their business depends on credibility. Muscat doesn’t care for credibility, not when it serves him, all he wants is to enforce his persona.

What’s happening at the moment, is provocative, open dissent will be blamed as the cause why he’ll have to take ‘difficult decisions’.

Text book manipulation to deligitimise any potential adversary really, least of which being the PN.

He said he put in his declaration of assets last year, what’s the fuss?

An “underdog” is a person or group in a competition, usually in sports and creative works, who is popularly expected to lose.[1] The party, team, or individual expected to win is called the favorite or top dog. In the case where an underdog wins, the outcome is an upset. An “underdog bet” is a bet on the outsider in which odds are high.[2]

Underdog, my ass – with all the hype he’s been preaching . And boasting that his election as PM is the best thing that happened to Malta…he gives us the message that he has become god’s gift to Maltese politics and the economy.

He’s a top dog right now not an underdokk – kiesah u ardid ir-ragel.

In reply to H.P. Baxxter. I fail to see how anyone can actually predict anything.
