No, you don’t sound like a nice person. And I am astonished to discover that you are my age, because you sound like you should be a generation younger.

Ask me again why I have no time for Maltese men, bar a few exceptions.

In reply to Georges Bonello DuPuis. Personal corrupt business. Ara what a loser: it's not even a case of black market earnings or earnings off crime in the traditional sense: he's there, with all of MALTA'S coffers open before him, the passport scam takings on which there is no trace, and he is helping himself freely to it all.

‘Sloth’, that’s a very apt noun for people like you who wouldn’t want to lift up their arse from their bed to go do some research into Malta’s recent history.

I’m not going to take long in case you doze off while reading a rather lengthy comment.

Everything of value (and I don’t mean monetary value, but ‘value’ in its widest sense of the word) that you can identify in Malta was conceived and constructed by the PN. The MLP never added anything of value but instead always tried to destroy what we had, only to be fixed again by the PN. t’s a sort of cycle.

That the PN are not perfect is moot.

Now go back to bed.

I couldn’t make it past 6:02 and the fist pump and kiss. It felt like he was reading a fairy story.

If you couldn’t assess Muscat and his party for what they were, before 2013, you’re not up to much. And if you can’t work out that Busuttil and his colleagues are not going to open companies in Panama three days after being voted into power, to put a carefully crafted corruption roadmap into effect, you’re up to even less.

You don’t sound like a very nice person yourself. You also sound like you have it in for Ivan Bartolo. Let’s put it this way: Muscat would probably kill to have him as a candidate, for more reasons than one.

In reply to Thomas Rubicon. On the contrary, you sound like a student who has just discovered that "all politicians are corrupt".

In reply to Daphne Caruana Galizia. No I am not: that is why I am much the wiser now.

Doesn’t say much for those thousands who swallowed his bullshit, and elected the most crooked of prime ministers in history.

He was as fake then as he is now with his ” ….let me tell you a story…” and his ‘Rags to Riches’ parody.

Your honeymoon is over,” you screamed to the then Prime Minister. “We are back in business big time, big time” you shouted to your adoring subjects.

They and others fell for it and you were elected leader of the country and your rags to riches dream turned into the people’s nightmare. The country has been ruled by money and power ever since.

You, as the country’s leader meant business. And big business, big time. The rich and the powerful got it all. But it was not enough. You and they wanted more and in the lust for even more power, money, gold and silken riches, you and they then abused your power and the trust of the people.

So the truth is Mr Muscat, your rags to riches story is just a fairytale after-all. For how can your story be an honest and true one of a journey from rags to riches, when the riches you have are just the ill-gotten gains of blatant corruption and dishonesty.

Just take a long, hard look at where you and your rhetoric are now Joseph Muscat. Methinks that it is your honeymoon that is soon to be over.
