Your faith is touching. The prime minister wouldn’t even answer a straight question about whether the Mayor of Qormi was put on the payroll at the CHOGM office (she was).

To me they look like just the sort of garish thing devoid of style that a Mexican drug lord might buy for his teenaged daughter.

It may even be worth having a Xarabank programme in which that clock is exhibited along with the gifts so far received by Joseph Muscat and his spouse.

A comparison of prices could then be made. Why is there such a deafening silence now from the press and other media?

Has there been a major change in the way they interpret acceptance of presents by those in or close to government?

The reply, if we are ever enlightened with one, may prove to be very interesting.
