Sadder still is the fact that he goes out of his way to advertise freely his stupidity.

This is teenager language. Malta is being run by immature corrupt bogans who behave like teenagers, and whose behaviour disgusts everyone except those who have the IQ of a cabbage.

This reflects the pathetic state of mind of the Maltese people, to actually elect such idiots to lead them. People really do get the government they deserve.

I despaired a long time ago and decided the bite the bullet. Left Malta and visit only for family reasons.

It sickens me to know the corruption, stupidity and arrogance are so deeply ingrained in the current government.

It wasn’t nice with the previous one but this government is ten times worse.

Sometimes in life you have to ‘accept failure’ (meaning stop dreaming that tomorrow will be a better day) and move on to greener pastures where democracy tries a little better and where brains are in greater abundance
