Nice bit of doublespeak there, Floater.

It doesn’t matter what Joseph Muscat thought of the EU, read what he thinks and what he can think, what matters is cash and jobs.

I can see the EU blamed for every move he’ll make to undermine Malta’s membership and the Union itself.

They never did, and they’ve been working to inculcate a perception that there is an alternative to the EU for Malta (Russia, China, Azerbaijan, etc.).

They will test core EU issues until the Maltese believe that they need to blame it on being part of the EU for their sufferings.

The truth is that Malta flourished when it joined the EU and adopted the Euro and thrived when the rest of the world was in disarray.

The only difference is that there was the PN in government. But the MLP will re-write history as it suits it best, as it has always done.

The hands should never protect the family jewels in a posed photograph. It transmits vulnerability. If you’re sitting, it’s hands on knees. If you’re standing, it’s hands at your side.

Incidentally, what’s with Michelle Muscat’s splayed finger pose? Is she trying to show off HER family jewels, the real ones?

What is immaterial? The deception? The lies? The rewriting of history?

On the contrary there is much food for thought. The government and the Labour Party is systematically eroding the belief in the EU.

Eventually, it will have garnered enough public support to make some bold moves against continuing membership.

And it is the “floaters” and the “switchers” or whatever you want to call yourselves who would have enabled this to happen. All because they did not stop to critically evaluate the shallow utterances of the MLP and get to what Muscat has been truly saying.

The hypocrisy is not immaterial: Sant froze membership and voted against it. Muscat was similarly adamant against Malta joining the EU. At first blush, today they appear to have accepted Malta’s place within the EU. However, that is only a ploy. There is more than meets the eye as with everything else that has happened over the past year or so.

I am sorry to say that only the blind see this as immaterial.

So by your reasoning, PN should have won the last election. But no! People did not vote on the premise of sound economy etc.
Read this article, published today on TOM which gives a very good description, especially at the end, of why PL won the last election :

Why do they put lousy small grainy photos of Simon Busuttil (ON HD TV)and posed and retouched pictures of our fat hairless prime minister looking seven years younger and 20 kilos lighter?

This is the picture of the other prime minister: http://292fc373eb1b8428f75b-7f75e5eb51943043279413a54aaa858a.r38.cf3.rackcdn.com/19b6a5f29dd88a490bc5cab0c1b6250e560993433-1319043975-4e9f0387-620×348.jpg

and here’s the other prime minister again: http://www.gov.mt/en/PublishingImages/a%20DR%20JOSEPH%20MUSCAT.jpg

The PN PR people should make it a point to supply the TVM newsroom with decent photos of Simon Busuttil. No need to Photoshop them and there’s no need for Busuttil to pose sitting partially on his desk with hands protecting his family jewels.

We’re back to the 80s with this kind of news.
