Armed and dangerous at St Edward’s College

Published: November 25, 2014 at 12:09pm

Here’s a photograph of one of the Police Minister’s Glock-toting drivers (they all seem to be skinheads, bar L-Olandiz) waiting by his official car GM14 at St Edward’s College yesterday while his boss – or was it the wife? – was inside talking to teachers on Parents’ Day.

Those official plates, eh? So now parents’ day at his children’s school is official government business.

Meanwhile, I have received reports that Paul Sheehan, the Police Minister’s state-funded driver, routinely collected Carmela Mallia, the Police Minister’s daughter, from St Joseph’s School in the Police Minister’s state-funded car wearing official GM14 plates.

    This man is only 47 , but he looks as if he’s 75. I wonder why…

      He’s a lot older than 47. You’re mixing him up with Patrick Sheehan, not even with driver Paul Sheehan.

    The minister driven around in a car with the driver’s mirror missing. Motorcyclists advised to make sure they hoot before going by.

    If it were one of us, we’d be pulled over.

    Best of Mallywood.

    Could we have signs at entrances to school premises – starting where the school traffic signs begin – that guns are not permitted at a perimeter that gives wide berth?

    We don’t want another mirror, or a child, to get in the Honourable Minister’s car’s way.

    ‘…asked if the reason he was so harsh towards Dr Busuttil was due to past personal issues he had with the PN, Dr Castaldi Paris said that such issues are past and forgotten and that he was simply commenting on Dr Busuttil’s speech during a “normal” budget-focused debate…’

    I suppose calling Busuttil negative and childish is budget focused.

    On last weeks’ Reporter, he made it a point to describe, in his great detail, the new witholding tax system.

    Pity both Frank Salt and the council of notaries thought otherwise of the tabled budget document until yesterday.

    Maybe Castaldi Paris was teasing us with mods still missing from the minister’s text.

    Time to ask whether he’s on the payroll.

    Loaded weapons next to a school, how very reassuring! Thank goodness no one bumped his car mirror there.

    I remember a minister’s driver taking his mother shopping.

    When they took/ take the Passport Applicants around with all the outriders, were/ are the outriders and drivers armed?

    This is the first time in history that I am getting to know the ministers’ vehicle number plates by heart.

    The minister was in fact at St Edward’s yesterday for Parent’s Day with the Mrs.

    At one point they walked (he wobbled actually) past a very long line of other parents as they waited outside the various classes.

    Everyone noticed them but not a single person acknowledged them or even looked their way. In fact it was amusing to see ALL the parents turn their backs towards the couple and pretend they did not see them.

    It must have been embarrassing for the couple as they walked the whole length of the college grounds without receiving as much as a nod or a greeting from anyone.

    It must have felt like the proverbial ‘Walk of shame’.

    I assure you that many of the parents present were NOT Nationalist supporters, quite the opposite in fact.

    I actually felt sorry for them in a strange sort of way.
