This is the woman who led a march – alongside Jason Micallef, then secretary-general of the Labour Party – on the unobtrusive Fawwara (or was it Bahrija) house that Victor Scerri, then president of the Nationalist Party, was building, but who has retired her megaphone and her hired lorry since March 2013 as shocking planning permission is granted for skyscrapers and ‘American Universities of Malta’.

There is nothing more dangerous in public life than a stupid person who is also arrogant.

The same can’t be said for many, including your heroine, who is not trusted.

And Chetcuti’s meeting with Astrid Vella was revealed by a newspaper.

Exactly. He also stated that ‘it was revealed’. There was no skulduggery involved. He conveniently omitted to say that it was Din l-Art Helwa themselves who stated, ahead of the meeting, for all to see. Oh, and late last year is not ‘ages ago’, not by anyone’s yardstick, except possibly his own.

It was just a statement of fact: to be able to cost things out, you need the experience and the arithmetic skills.

No – you can’t pay full-time salaries off holding pizza and cheese parties, and painting en plein sessions, for the likes of your archetypal FAA supporter who won’t part with a euro unless you wrest it out of them.

Unless the FAA has wangled itself some kind of EU or government grant, it is getting donations from more generous sources.

I’d be interested if you could mention other dates.
