That’s why cabinet ministers have what are known as ‘bag carriers’, Mr Mizzi

I cannot abide hand-held briefcases and thoroughly approve of shoulder-bags for men. But they have to be the right sort, and this one is not.
This one looks like it belongs on somebody going to university or off to a job at the sort of office where the men wear zipped-up fleeces in winter.
Doesn’t the minister for health and energy have an aide or bag-carrier?
Another point: last year he was svelte. Now, he is tubby. Either the progressive Labour government has discovered a way to get men pregnant, or this one – like many men in the absence of their wife – has been loading up on fast food and take-aways or avoiding the kitchen altogether by eating in restaurants.

Some keep them under a mattress and some carry them in their carrier bags
He’s an idiot and always has been. I remember him from school. He’s a proper idiot. And he’s Labour, so don’t expect him to know how silly that bag is. He thinks it’s cool.
Oettinger most likely didn’t understand a word Mizzi was saying anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RrEQ8Ovw-Q
It think it would be the other way round having seen the video clip. Oettinger’s English is abysmal.
And his mannerisms are so Frank Spencer-ish.

I don’t remember the Ombudsman ever having to resort to the courts of law to function.
The cultural revolution takes hold.
Is that really Konrad Mizzi? Wow, fenominali. A paunch at his age.

Remember when it was Rutger?
And a bloody good actor he is too. ‘The Legend of the Holy Drinker’, Jozef.

He is living the high life… that’s why the extra kilos…
‘Doesn’t the minister for health and energy have an aide or bag-carrier?’
Yes he does; he’s called Rick Shaw.
This member of the cabinet is a prime target for the reduce obesity campaign.
He has the paunchy alcohol-soaked look brought on by a rapid/rabid descent into the bottle. The blotchy, puffy face and bags that turn his gaze into a pig-like squint.

I would guess Comrade Mizzi’s shoulder-bag contains some toiletries and a spare set of underwear.
Why hire a bag-carrier to trundle about with your intima?
A bag-carrier, besides, involves fees – possibly quite hefty – as well as flight and hotel costs. Remember that Comrade’s other comrade – a certain Edward Scicluna, professor of economics – is set to reducing public expenditure by no less than 40 million euros this year. Every ‘drop’ counts, you know.
It’s the lack of exercise in the bedroom since his wife left Malta
Just out of curiosity, why can’t you abide hand-held briefcases?
[Daphne – The reasons are too complex to go into, and I’ll end up offending and upsetting a whole other raft of people.]
Not even a battered, handmade 1950s one?
Can you show us how you like them then?
[Daphne – Never in that context, never with a shoulder pad and never like anything that would be carried into the office by somebody in a fleece. And always good leather. And they must always go one of two routes: either really well made but not flashy or branded, or well-used and battered but in a good way. This is hard to explain so I don’t think I’ll bother. People should understand these things instinctively.]

As a matter of fact, men make super cooks and most of the best cooks happen to be men.
What you are implying is, a woman’s place is in the kitchen cooking for her man.
Even mother nature seem to be of the same belief, as a matter of fact it gave women smaller feet, and this, so that they can move closer to the kitchen cupboards.
But those days are gone and men are expected to do their part in the kitchen.
Could it be that the minister has gone back to glorious pasta, after years eating noodles?
You’ll be telling us the one about women, legs and snails next.
I’ve just come across The Honourable Konrad Mizzi doing his grocery shopping at Chain at Tigne Point, and I confirm that he has developed quite a belly.
They all have. There isn’t a single government minister, MP, or public official who has lost weight after taking up his post. Not a single one.
And they would have us believe that they want to fight obesity.
Liars.
Malta must be the only country on earth with no correlation between income and excess weight, because these people are all loaded. And yet they balloon. And so are the poor. And they balloon too.
