Maybe he doesn’t have that particular expression in his rehearsed repertoire.

Look at Dr. Farrugia, she did the work, put herself on the line of fire, so her expression is genuine and appropriate.

Journalists who between them do not have the balls that Dr. Farrugia has.

Prime Minister, did the Maltese government pay any ransom?

Cue the furrow.

She has a story to tell.

What about the prime minister? Does he have a story to tell? Don’t think so.

And what kind of journalists do we have?

Not just NET TV. It’s the ENTIRE Opposition which needs to wake up. This country is a field of gold for a serious party in Opposition, but all we hear is whimperings and groans. Wake up and smell the coffee, dear leaders.

The mind boggles. Why would the PM go to welcome a man returning a country that only last week he termed as safe and stable?

Mr. Galea’s recognition of Dr. Farrugia’s work was so natural, because it reflects the truth.

The prime minister’s objective in this charade was to get back to those who criticised the poor way in which his government handled this matter, now we can say, right till the end of it.

The faster they divert the public’s attention to something else – what is it this time, euthanasia? – the better.
