Kulltant għalhekk nitfa’ kummenti bil-Malti fil-kuntest Malti.

Nibda nistħajjel lil xi impjegati jistaqsu “What does “Kemm konna aħjar meta konna agħar?” u “Ħawwadni ħa nifhmek.” mean ?

Is the “Bitter/better” play with words Lesley Skipper’s or Luntz’s?

Knowing how the US campaign took a turn against Clinton, with the “FBI-Clinton emails-investigation story” . I wouldn’t be surprised if Muscat comes up with a local version .

Talk like that doesn’t work in Malta. This is a country where people struggle to understand English, and where they certainly don’t understand concepts like The Establishment. Even many of my friends and associates, who speak English as a matter of course, need to have The Establishment explained to them. It’s just an alien concept.

I think that was his larval phase. He must be coming to the end of his pupal stage now, and that’s why he called the election early. When he emerges it ain’t gonna be no butterfly. More likely an alien overlord.

Do you mean there are no checks and balances for the Muscat clique? Of course there are. Plenty of cheques, and balances in the Dubai banks.

My vote, can’t wait, definitely without a shadow of doubt, goes to Simon Busuttil in four weeks’ time and all you Maltese out there in Malta and elsewhere, should do the same.

I too have witnessed the immense corruption around us. Had to change my job four times in the last four years to free myself from the serious corrupt systems the present government has allowed companies in Malta to adopt.

Ultimately when you vote Nationalist, you vote for Malta to save it from these vultures.

In reply to Daphne Caruana Galizia.

Joseph Muscat has had his teeth (badly) crowned, too. This is a screenshot from an online video uploaded/taken yesterday.

Most people are far more glamorous in their 20s than they are in middle age, Barabbas, so there is something weird going on here.

In reply to Evarist Saliba. His wife, too. Her face is now completely different to what it was like four years ago. She seems to have had surgery around the jaw and teeth recently, and something around the cheekbones to plump it all out. Very insensitive to be so preoccupied with vanity in the current climate.

One thing that I have noticed all along is that Joseph Muscat has been changing his appearance. He is too preoccupied with the image that he projects. There is no genuineness in him.
