Sentimenti religjuzi apparti, hu nkwetanti li jkollok policy makers b’dan il-livell ta’ mgiebha u valuri. Dik hi wahda mir-ragunijiet ghaliex il-Kabinett attwali qed igib ruhu b’mod immorali u korrot.

X’ma jagħmlux li jridu. Mill-kbir saż-żgħir, Għandhom eżempju bħal dak.

I find plenty wrong with a cabinet minister who has friends like those. Jose Herrera grew up two corners away from where I did – where exactly did he get to make ‘friends’ like that?

But smoking indoors is a crime whoever it may be.

He would walk in with two or three tattooed Hamrun louts, and sit a table close by. They must have taken me for a tourist, as their conversation was full of indiscretions. It was mostly, however, half an hour of haqq ghoxx il-Madonna this, that or the other. Herrera was the worst offender.
