Communications aide vacancy at the Office of the Prime Minister: must have the IQ of a pigeon

Gland Bustingfield, the Prime Minister’s communications aide and travelling companion, has said that Net TV has dispatched Mario Frendo to Velbert (that bit is true, I gather) to “pay prostitutes for fake information”.

You don’t need to have the intelligence quotient of a pigeon to work as a tool for Joseph Muscat, but it helps. Why would anyone pay for fake information? If it’s fake, you can invent it for free – and without going to all the trouble and expense of sending a reporter and a television crew to Germany.

It’s a shame no newspaper or TVM took the initiative to do it, but at least the Opposition media did. It’s most unlikely that the prostitutes or the brothel management will talk, but at least we’ll get a proper overview of the scenario.

Closer to home – and a lot cheaper, too, so perhaps the independent media will not be put off by the outlay – they should do the same with Steam, the nudie/lap-dancing place in Paceville. The Minister for the Economy is there so often, and has been for years, that the police and punters know it unofficially as Cardona Hall. His favourite girls are Oksana, Mihaela and Natalia.
