To win the leadership of the MLP, Mintoff accused Dr Boffa of incest. This slander was made during a general conference of the party while Boffa was in London in discussions with the British gorenment.

But maybe lying about them is all right with him? Dr. Paul Boffa was slandered by Mintoff. He eventually lost the MLP leadership to Mintoff after a Party split.

Now that was something malicious, Saviour.

LE LE LE GEORGE IL-BARRI MA RRIDUHX
ASSASSIN TAL-MALTIN

Niftakar partitarji bil-barrin tal-plastik jew materjal ieħor, jiġru bihom f’idejhom.

Xi żminijiet dawk.

Oh gosh I didn’t know the reason why plastic bulls were stuck on bonnets most especially on trucks. Thanks for the insight, it makes perfect sense.

If my memory serves me right, Ted Heath, who was the British prime minister at the time, felt that if Moira were to return to Dom Mintoff she would be a beneficial influence on him. He was wrong. Mintoff did not treat her any better, and she had no positive influence on him.

I also recall that at a time when kunserva and salted butter were rationed, you would have no problem finding cheap Spanish-souvenier type velvet bulls of varying sizes which were stuck on bonnets and huge from rear-view mirrors on the windscreen.

[Daphne – So that’s why those velveteen matador bulls were everywhere when I was a child. It never occurred to me.]

Correct. I was there with you, Erasmus. But Stefano was not railing at the Maltese for being ungrateful towards Borg Olivier, but towards the behavior of the Maltese government during the negotiations with the British regarding the military base.

They could have hunted down Michael Scholten in Mettlach to ask whether he visited Dalli in Brussels to diagnose Dalli’s psychology-social disorder.

But they didn’t.

No, Dawn Addams’ marriage to Don Vittorio Emanuele Massimo, Prince of Roccasecca was not merely for show. It produced one son, Stefano, who was at sixth form with me during the early 1970s.

I remember him very clearly railing against the “ungrateful” Maltese who had ditched Borg Olivier and elected Mintoff instead.

[Daphne – By a marriage for show, I did not mean a mariage blanc, but a show-business marriage for publicity reasons which would enhance her career. It was done all the time and is still done today. Whether such marriages produce children or not means nothing: you can have a child after a one-night stand.]

Montebello ma tistax tafdah. Moralment imhawwad.
