In reply to Be-witched. Hang on. I'll ask Metsola. She usually forthcoming. As for Alfred Sant, forget it. He's currently inhabiting such rarefied heights of intellectual detachment that the very pixies in the sky are using his wig as a tent.

In reply to Spock.

These things are going to come up before him again when he comes to overhaul the Birds Directive, as promised when he was approved as Commissioner.

How will he be deciding on “these things” then, or is the Commissioner planning to abstain from taking decisions?

“…these things come up before me.”

What things? Has he started taking Viagra since he became commissioner?

Is it me, or the info from the NO campaign has not yet been forthcoming? And this apart from incoherent messages trying to be put thru by members, who ultimately are showing that this campaign is an ego boost for their political career.

Definitely not a united front up till now…..

Ma tarax li l-Guy ser jiddikjara ruhu kontra dak li qal: His Great, Big Master Joseph who gave him such a perk in Brussels.

I wonder what the PL and PN MEPs have to say about the spring hunting issue now both their respective masters were such huge fools in declaring how they will be voting in the manner they did. Any MEP with courage enough to gainsay their leaders?

Another falsehood being bandied about by the “yes” lobby is that spring hunting happens elsewhere in Europe so why not Malta.

I was at my local butcher and he was adamant that this is true and happens in Sicily. Is it possible that Italy also has a derogation? If not then of course the hunting that is going on in Sicily is illegal.

This point also needs also to be clarified by the “No” lobby.

In reply to Jozef. Karmenu is actually smaller. Maybe he is shrinking.

In reply to Jozef. I never knew he is that small.
