He can’t act his age because his wife is 55. So he obviously thinks he’s 55 too. That was my point a while back. You end up losing touch with reality in those situations.

For God’s sake, the man is 73. Do you know any 73-year-old surgeons? Because I don’t.

That’s the irony: he’s too old to operate, but thinks he’s not too old to run the country in five years’ time.

Welcome back Daphne. It’s great to read some sense about Malta’s political scene.

Those of us who lived near Frank Portelli and his wife Sarah (his current wife is Jenny) in Attard/Misrah Kola in the 1980s know the full story that you told.

Frank has long behaved like a spoilt child. He should just disappear and not try to return to politics after 30 years. He has long been a skewed Rubik’s cube.

Do the jokers who seconded Frank Portelli nomination know that he is many millions in debt which he cannot repay, but still refusing to file for bankruptcy?

No wonder the Laburisti are out in force supporting him.

In reply to Newman. People such as Portelli think the plebs have their memory wiped after each election.

In reply to Newman. It's a personality disorder that allows men like Frank Portelli, Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando and Franco Debono to actually believe that there is nothing wrong with them.

I really don’t understand why anyone with that sort of track record would even dream of contesting the leadership of any political party.

I think you are underestimating Dr Portelli . If he can solve a Rubik’s cube he can solve anything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aX_9HiUXkXQ
