Is the ambassador the new lady’s maid?

Qabel xejn, merħba mill-ġdid. Tabilħaqq m’aħna xejn mingħajrek Daphne. Monotonija sħiħa.

Imma dik l-EĊĊELLENZA l-president mhux xi impjegat tas-servizz ċivili! Ma’ dawk taf kif tagħmel l-arja l-ambaxxatur.

Well said. She was given a cushy job in defence matters, for which she was decidedly unfit for purpose and of which she knew zero – by a parrinu within the civil service. Remarkably for someone flying the national flag as a diplomat, she is considered as ‘very pro-US’, possibly because she is married to a US citizen. Wikileaks cables have this and more.

Oh well. All’s well that ends well with another cushy station in Rome, with a beaming Uncle George Vella in the foreground (and Auntie Miriam Vella, also in red as it happens).

Where is Her Excellency’s PRO – does she not know that one does not hand a microphone to an Ambassador but arranges to have a stand-up microphone. How pathetic they all are.

…or possibly she now wants us all to know that she no longer likes blue. It no longer serves her to be so.
