This is also the way the government is treating our art, which has become a Sunita Mukhi handbag with a Maltese cross.

I do have a problem with this national pride taken to extreme levels. Art is not a marketing tool to sell off the country to the rich.

The pastizz is the least of our problems. Valletta’s stint as European Capital of Culture is just around the corner, and I really hope it’s not going to be about Maltese crosses and kavallieri, far right nationalism, carnival and nativity cribs.

What really worries me and bothers me is that the government is turning this country into a brothel, when the economy can be driven forward with cultural projects and a bit of intellect, both of which are completely lacking.

Lanqas jaf jikteb li suppost hu.Irid jiddeċiedi jew “Eks-Nazzjonalist” inkella “Ex-Nationalist” .

We really are not interested. This is not a discussion about where to buy the best pastizz.

Roger ta’Zejtun’s pastizzi are pretty good. There’s a few spots in other villages that sell them.

Ghandek bzonn tiftakar li l-kultura Maltija mihiex sempliciment il-kultura tal-klassi tal-haddiema.

Iz-zball li hafna bhalek jaghmlu hi din:

Malti = working class

Affarijiet tal-Maltin = affarijiet tal-working class

Ikel Malti = ikel tal-working class

Kultura Maltija = kultura tal-working class

Mhux kulhadd suppost middle-class issa taht Muscat?

Bit slow on the uptake, aren’t you. Stick to voting for Muscat.
