Handbags at dawn at Labour HQ

I thought the Prime Minister would appreciate the LGBTQI++++ reference, given how his mind seems to be mainly on these issues while the rest of public life goes to hell in a handbasket.

Read this story on his massive internal party problems and pause to wonder how the man has time to run the country when he is perennially distracted by the severe problems caused by his own machinations.

The country is now transfixed by Panamagate, and Muscat has been hit by a problem to which there is no real solution: Konrad Mizzi, who was already perceived as his pet henchman before the reason became shockingly evident, has been elected deputy leader designate of the Labour Party at Muscat’s request, but Toni Abela has not yet resigned and what they ignorantly believed would be a fait accompli – his appointment to the European Court of Auditors – has blown up in their faces.
