Jose Herrera was recently invited on a television show. When the floor manager asked him where he’d like to put his mike pack, he very elegantly replied ‘Tridx tpoggihuli mal-bajd’. Charming.

Did he say that live?
No. While being miked in an ad break.
Not surprised. I heard him once at the Law Courts, walking along with his assistant lawyer, talking loud and vulgar, for everyone to hear. He was not arguing about any case, but telling his aide, or whoever she was, what she needed to do.
He gave me the impression that when he is vulgar he feels himself cool.
Is that a prison tattoo on the arms of the other ‘gentleman’?
Likely, because it’s of poor quality.
This is nothing. His average lunchtime conversation contains more blasphemy than twelve reruns of the director’s cut of Scarface.
Quite true H.P. Baxxter, he blasphemes often and I remembered him telling jokes about Alfred Sant (also dirty ones) during lunch especially at the Casino Maltese and with other Labour MPs.
Ah, the Casino Maltese. I’ll give a review one of these days. Charming Czech waitress, but the food is dire. So is the company.
The Honourable Jose Herrera.
Tourette’s syndrome with coprolalia.
And I’m expected to refer to these people as “Onorevoli”?
He probably simply does not suffer fools easily. Why must a soundman ask where to put the radiomike? Soundman should just say “can I put it in your inner pocket?”
Or clipped to his belt.
Just the language to go with that gaudy bracelet of his!
Tghid lill-Onorabbli ohtu hekk ikellimha wkoll.
One doesn’t suddenly start swearing and being vulgar at age 30, or 50.
It’s more likely to be the revert-to-form language he’s most familiar with.
There’s an ‘honourable gentleman’ for you.
Jekk mhuwx gh**** Lawrence Gonzi, il-bajd ta’ Herrera.
Most probably because there was ample space there
‘Tridx tpoggihuli mal-bajd’.
That sounds like an old Agatha Barbara joke.
They would have needed a microscope to comply with his request.
