She worked for Sant and she knew precisely what the game was.

If she knew, and still went in for it, and still does, that’s not goodness.

It seems to be infectious. Renzi now has the bug: provocation in Scenario B that will “hurt Europe.”

The proper thing to do in those circumstances is to boo.

It wasn’t at all about the Marigold Foundation and the work it does, but just showed Michelle Muscat as busy, running in and out of meetings, and portrayed as some sort of national heroine.

It looked like it had been put together by the same people who make propaganda videos for Kim Jong-Un.

And that right there is his brown envelope.

They went absolutely wild for Karmenu Mifsud Bonnici (I remember it clearly), even though he was ugly as sin and totally weird. Imma kien single, hi.

It was only Alfred Sant who gave them pause, but they did their best there too.

I have no idea how things will be tackled in 2018. Things are changing swiftly.

One thing is for certain: nobody is boasting about having voted Labour or for Joseph, which is a very telling indicator.

I’m quite happy to discuss food and clothes. Food is, in fact, a big part of my work.

But then not to the exclusion of everything else.

I like the ‘adult schoolyard’ concept. It explains so much about some women I know and why I find them so boring.

It also explains why my female friends and I seem to find it uncomfortable discussing fashion and home issues. Anything else seems more interesting than discussing our particular recipe for lasagne.

You must be a man if you haven’t yet noticed that Muscat isn’t even remotely interested in his wife, or any other woman, for that matter.

But then I don’t think they’re a heterosexual couple. It’s a shame, really, because she would have made a very good wife to a man who loves her. Beyond all the showing off and the limelight seeking, I get the feeling that all she really wanted was a bourgeois life with a fond husband.

She’s not a bad person; he is.
