I’d sack him on account of those sentences alone.

Don’t mind the gibberish, penned by one who thinks Xewkija should subscribe to Berlin, when all it chooses is to challenge Victoria for attention, going for a blatant copy of the Arsenale’s Santa Maria della Salute, the novelty of portraying it as a challenge to San Marco. Hats off to Xewkija which kept a sense of proportion then.

As for the Carmelite vs Anglican dichotomy, perhaps Giuseppi should read the correspondence Her Majesty warning of possible upheaval when the latter was proposed, even because the plan was to tear down the curtain replacing it with steps leading down to sea level.

Parthenstic to say the least. It was the Brits imitating the place; Tuscany opposite Mdina, clock towers and all, Palazzacci transposed from the Tiber to Floriana and so on.

The Carmelite dome just the final say, so there. Seems Giuseppi can’t fathom constance, brutalistic soviet that he loves.

And if so, he’d hate Novara’s San Gaudenzio, baroque made skyscraper. Just look at the thing, Antonelli the mystic in his 19th century Piedmont, land of symbols and Dan Brown’s obsession.

Move over Washington, European jewry wouldn’t remain silent either, the greatest of all synagogues was theirs, a few kilometers away.

Taste remains ideological with some people, that irremovable faith be monstrous then.

Wonder what he thinks of Gaudi’s curse on the people of Barcelona, working on something which result is beyond one’s lifetime. The exact opposite of today’s ultra efficient costing exercises, fractals made money.

But no, architecture must perforce be of utility, not function.

Labour are very fortunate to have so many brain-dead zombies to vote for them.

You find it hard to believe how many still use this provider, just to help the partit.

Don’t worry, George Vella won’t need to worry. He’s being replaced by Manuel Mallia. He’ll sort it out, OK siehbi.

No need to say you’re sorry. From your original comment we realised you’re the sorry type.

As soon as I press “submit comment”, I’m giving you a standing ovation.

You missed out on the Finance Minister this morning on ONE radio defending the gong given to the Saudi Prince on the grounds that it isn’t our place to question how they repress, I mean, run their kingdom (and disregard human rights), because money is money.

So much for the moderate, liberal and most femminist government Malta ever had.

Barberini succeeded where the barbarians had failed.
