The Duke would probably know, with precision, what the contents of the envelope are.

Best “funny caption” in a long time!

Oh, I guess Myfanwy was referring to the prince.

I wouldn’t be too convinced.

I have long thought he was a closet gay. If that is the case, as the only son of a doting older mother, and an activist in a political party that thought of and still thinks of gay men as ‘pufti’, it would be highly unlikely that he’d have dared come out, preferring to fulfill his ambitions with a wife as a beard.

The Silk Road. Huh. A term which refers to the land trade route which existed in the primitive times between China, Central Asia and Europe. That was before the discovery of America, before Europe became industrialised, before new trading routes were invented between Europe, America and Asia via the Suez Canal, and before the invention of planes and modern ships, making the land route obsolete.

Now China is re-proposing the Silk Road for another purpose. To benefit from the oil and gas resources en-route and to establish itself as a regional power in a territory of the world which is neighboured by Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan to the south and Russia to the north.

I see that Joseph Muscat did not speak to European and Asian leaders about his innovative idea of selling EU passports to Asian citizens, making them ‘global citizens.’ Was it not such a great idea, after all?

What value exactly did he add to the conference? What innovative ideas did he contribute? The Silk Road? An idea first ever heard in Malta on this website last year.
