Manuel Mallia wrote a convoluted sick-note to say he was too indisposed to be in parliament on Wednesday, but last night he was sitting outside in the cold with Codruta Cristian at the unveiling of a statue of Dom Mintoff.

I have been trying to see whether John Dalli and Alfred Sant were there also. So far I have been unsuccessful.
The campiness in that last picture is off the scale.
Chav level……unlimited
What hypocrisy . A few days ago he was boasting that he was a front liner against the excesses of the Mintoff regime.
Who’s the Korean guy?
Mela m’ghadux indispost miskin?
Isn’t this the same square where Mintoff told his “Suldati ta l-azzar” that they had no family jewels , to put it in decent English.
Well they can enjoy him and use him for taking their dogs to relieve themselves.
I see the Chinese Communist Party has their delegate sitting amongst Labour’s.
Lou Bondi did a good job; top brass at the front, Mintoffjani standing on the sides and at the back, out of sight.
There’s a Mintoff statue? Really? It’s bad enough Malta decorated Ghaddafi- a blatant human rights abuser. Do we need statues of Human Rights abusers now too?
Another example of the anything goes mentality in Malta. God forbid we pull down Lorry Sant and Mintoff statues. Then it would be seen as unfair.
In fact, I m certain this comment is going to be attacked too, for being unfair towards Labourites because I don’t respect their “opinion”. God knows what that opinion is.
Sometimes, to have things done properly, one has to upset a few people. If those people were professional, they would get over it.
Sadly the strong and emotionally charged bond between the Maltese and their political affiliations – a sign of intense immaturity and ignorance – is so prevalent that we will forever have to tiptoe around it lest we end up with civil unrest, protesters demanding the statues of Human Rights abusers. What a joke.
Edward, have you ever heard of Marcel Duchamp’s “Fountain”? It is said that only 17 replicas exist. Our leaders, in their benevolence, gave us more.
What a pathetic pose Joseph Muscat strikes in the third photo. He wants us to believe he is calm and cool as if nothing untoward is happening.
U dawn huma l-istess nies li kienu jgħajjru lil ħaddieħor li moħħu fil-monumenti, iċ-ċerimonji u l-pompa.
Kemm il-monument full-size għamel s’issa u kemm bi ħsiebu jagħmel bi flus il-poplu?
Biex tiskonġra trid tkun pur: “L-ewwel il-pappa u mbagħad l-umpappa!”
A statue of Mintoff with his hand deep down in his pocket – interesting. Well, he was just another w*nker.

This is the real Mintoff – all the rest is lies and nonsense.
It couldn’t have been very late because Joseph wasn’t in his cot yet.
He was not late but was speeding with sirens and blue lights escort from Burmarrad on the way. He must have had a long siesta.
Now I have another place where to take the dogs for a walk.
Unfortunately, the builders decided to place it on a plinth. I’ll have to aim at the brass plaque.
Unless any of you chaps can lend me one of those crane contraptions.
Just look at all those red ties. That’s one hell of a comeback for a colour that went out of fashion just a couple of years ago.
What were those Chinese dudes doing there near him?
So if he claims that during Mintoff’s time he was fighting to safeguard human rights and ‘maghkom Tal-Barrani’ how does he rationalise his being at this unveiling ceremony?
Ghaddielu il mimmi, miskin our little sick boy.
I am tempted to get a Great Dane, to be tall enough to be able to piss on the statue.
I’m getting a pet giraffe.
Still haven’t given up. Waiting for the prime minister to appoint his new post. The greedy pig!
That statue should be thrown into the landfill, it reminds us of the shameful years Mintoff made us go through.
Don Manuel has managed to fall asleep out in the cold.
Make the connection. Manuel was an acolyte of Mintoff’s great PN friend. One of those former eminences he listed in Parliament as having an armed security driver. No prizes therefore as to why Manuel would attend a ceremony in Mintoff’s honour.
