@Blackadder – I was not referring specifically to Mintoff but to his circle.

I would however have no qualms about referring to him because if he swung one way, it does not, in any way whatsoever imply, that he may not have swung the other way too.

Including “Smiles”?

“…I brought him breakfast in bed. He asked me to sit down beside him so we could chat…”

Let’s not be silly in nobody’s interest. Mintoff loved women and had some success because of his position, power and a certain charisma. He only liked men around him because they were yes-men and, like all dictators he absolutely had to have this constant approvation and adulation to bolster his ego.

I stared at the MDA website and got a few others.

http://mda.com.mt/council/

4th Floor must be a busy place.

Is it split into subsections: National and International?

Perhaps Mrs Farrugia can tell us?

In Malta, things stare at people but they still miss all the clues.

And about the PM’s comment on jobs to the Nationalists, I heard from the grapevine that the grumbling from the grass roots actually is about the cushy jobs for the switchers like Robert Musumeci, Marisa Micallef (Leyson), John Bundy (though I’m not aware that he’s had his iced-bun yet), JPO, Franco Debono etc.

If Muscat was referring to this then he is really hollow.
