This gvern li jisma’ should listen to the proposals of the Opposition on how to govern and it would not have come to this tragic situation of Malliagate.

He was obviously waiting for a reply from Manuel Mallia to the effect that he’d be resigning. There was of course no agreement in the end.

Michael Cassar is the new Police Commissioner. What a joke. The fourth Police Commissioner in 21 months.

In reply to Joseph Borg.

I once went to a meeting with Prime Minister Karmenu Mifsud Bonnici to which other people who had taken a 3 hour flight had been invited.

When we had been waiting for a couple of hours already, he came out of the office, offhandedly offered his cold handshake, brushed everyone off by saying that he could not stay for the meeting and rushed out.

At that point our foreign partners understood more about the difficulties of Maltese businesses than all of our explanations put together.

Being Northern European they had not fully understood the arrogance.

Mifsud Bonnici had acted as if that made him look big. From then on he became a joke which we could refer to and even our foreign partners could share.
