This is normal standard operating procedures between a minister and his driver on a daily basis.

Maybe having been around Mallia for a while Sheehan has picked up Mallia’s money saving tricks?

How many people are drunk out of their wits at 900 pm? You might be drunk out of your wits at 5pm or at 11pm, but not at 9pm.

It must be to an implausible low degree of mathematical probability that would align the events to bring possibly the most inebriated driver on the Maltese roads at that point in time, to hit the car of the Police Minister (who is also his lawyer) driven by a Red Bull-fuelled, armed nutcase, in a side street in Gzira.

Maybe someone from the Faculty of Mathematics could work it out for us?

Social services are overworked and under-resourced.

That is the reason why the PN got the recordings.

Let’s see if they manage to get the copy of the contracts with Henley and partners, the Chinese government, and the power station now.

Ghaliex gideb u qal li l-ministru kien fil-karozza mieghu?
Ghaliex qal li mieghu fil-karozza kellu t-tifla tal-Ministru?
X’mod huwa kif il-Pulizija tal-112 jittekiljaw telefonata?

Mela:
Sheehan waqt li kien qed isuq kien qed jitkellem fuq il-mobile u jinstema jispara fl-istess hin? Huwa stess jghid lil Pulizija li Sparajtlu! Kemm il-id ghandu?
Min huma dawk in-nies li hemm hdejn il-karozza taht il-mini fejn hemm il-karozzi?
Xi dritt ghandu Sheehan izomm ostagg lil bniedem iehor u jheddu li jekk jitlaq ‘jahlih fuqu’!
Dan Sheehan minn fejn gab din l-arja kollha?

Min jisma r-recordings kollha jinduna li Sheehan kien fi stat hazin hafna, konfuz, gideb, u sahansitra ammetta li spara u li se jerga jispara?
Dan huwa bniedem perikoluz! Dan illum jinsab barra!
Illejla l-Prim Ministru jkollu jgieghel lil Ministru Manuel Mallia u lil Kurt Farrugia jirrezenjaw mill-aktar fis…..
Sa dan it-tant minn informazzjoni li smajt, minn fonti infurmati tajjeb, jidher li l-Prim Ministru diga kellu laqgha ma’ Mallia fejn fiha ddiskutew ir-rizenja. Mallia ma hadha xejn tajjeb……..
Illejla tkompli s-saga Malliagate.
Sheehan ghandu jittehdulu testijiet ha naraw x’tip ta’ droga jiehu….
Kif ma jisthix Manwel Mallia u jhalli lil bintu f’idejn bniedem bhal dan…..
Fejn tkun Codruta filghaxija? Jaqaw kellha xi reception u marret timla zaqqha b’xejn…..???

Grazzi lil Daphne li taghtina spazju sabiex nesprimu dak li nhossu.

The first reports said Dr Mallia was “attending a social function” at Police Headquarters.

Is it not strange that not a single witness has been called to corroborate or deny this? What social function was it?

Was he there or wasn’t he? Or was it a “secret” social function between the Minister and the Commissioner?
