In reply to Silvio.

As far as his school result, may I remind you that Einstein never passed an exam while at school.

So we need not worry, we have a surfeit supply of genii for the coming years.

In reply to Rosie. Are we seriously discussing Albert Einstein and Franco Debono in the same thread...

In reply to Rosie. Einstein never became a lawyer. I'll now get all the LLDs angrily writing in, saying they're not all subliterate and dull. When I'm dealing with so many of you, my dears, 99% is as good as 100.

His maths was as good as his Arabic.

In reply to Silvio. Albert Einstein never needed to show anybody his school reports, or felt he had to.

When he has them by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow.

Debono is able to give the Labour government a hard time because he knows how much he was pushed by them to do what he did when Labour was in Opposition. Owen Bonnici had to say what he did because he had no choice.

While I am sure his intentions are good, I do not agree with the way he acts.

As far as to the message, are we to accept it as gospel truth especially as it seems to be anonymous?

[Daphne – It’s not anonymous. Not to me, anyway. When people send me messages and information and ask me to respect their anonymity in publication, I am obliged to do so. I would never publish anything like that if it is sent to me anonymously, for the obvious reason that it might be unreliable, as you correctly say.]

These type of messages are usually the work of cowards.

[Daphne – Not at all, in this particular case, I can assure you.]

As far as his school result, may I remind you that Einstein never passed an exam while at school.

I don’t think he will ever accept to be a judge. His present position carries more power than that of judge.

Franco Debono is holding out for the top job: a vacancy at the European Court of Human Rights, as Malta’s nominee.
