The White Trash Convention

Published: September 22, 2012 at 7:37pm

I don’t wish to be rude, but new flags or no new flags, talk of movements or no talk of movements, Labour still has a really seriously bad image problem.

I’m sure it’s not just my imagination when I look at stills and films of Labour mass meetings and think that they look just like a White Trash Convention On Better Life In A Mobile Home in some US dust-bowl.

It’s almost incredible.

It says a lot that while tal-pepe electors are perfectly content to go to PN mass meetings, not one of them will be seen dead at a Labour mass meeting no matter how proud they say they are about voting Labour.

What is it that puts them off being there – their fellow Labour voters?

    X’qed nitilfu, Ciccio.

      Well, try Gonzi instead!

    • The Phoenix says:

      X par dawk, Baksi. Iva hej, qed nitilfu skoss eye candy. Can’t imagine why they all look so grim. The ones behind Joseph seem as if they are all holding back a shit.

    • H.P. Baxxter says:

      Jien se naqbad lizar abjad u mmur, Ciccio. F’dik il-folla, fejn se jindunaw?

        Bexter, Her name, the babe in photo 4, is…wait for it….Kimberley Vassallo. and i think the fotografu is wanting a barxa with her, ghax he gets her many times in his fotows

      • The Phoenix says:

        Her mother is called Maria Vassallo and her mother’s partner seems to be a guy called Herbert il-Bumblu. They live in Rabat.

        They seem to have a huge tattoo fetish. But look them up on Fejsbook. Kimberley truly is stunning in a hamallish way. In a better situation, with better upbringing, no tattoos, and no acres of plastered make up, she could have gone far in the modelling world…..but then I am not an expert.

      • H.P. Baxxter says:

        I never asked for any names. Let us not turn this into one of those vile Kullhadd name-publishing exercises.

      • Harry Purdie says:

        C^mon, Baxxter, any port in a storm. And we’re in for one hell of a one.

    • ciccio says:

      Baxxter, what does the Feminist Commission in the Most Feminist State led by the Most Feminist Government of the Most Feminist Prime Minister have to say about picture 2?

    • The chemist says:

      I pity that guy lifting the ‘girl’ in the middle pic. Im sure he has a slipped disc by now and is on welfare.

  2. Rover says:

    Come on Daphne. Showing a bit of cheek never did anybody any harm. I would draw a line if it were accompanied by a bucket of KFC though.

  3. gogemini says:

    Rude? You? Where ever have you been rude? As if you are ever rude, its not as if you ever wrote stuff like:

    “Zobb f’ghoxx kemm ghandkom ja qatta liba” or stuff of the sort.

    Ma tarax daqs kemm int edukata, pakata, gentili u femminili!

    [Daphne – No, in fact I haven’t ever written anything like that, except in mocking imitation of your sort of person, gogemini. I wasn’t raised in the gutter, or wherever it is that most Labour voters seem to have grown up, judging by the way they think, speak and write. But you don’t get mocking irony, do you, so why bother explaining? As for that reference to femininity, didn’t your boss-man just say that Labour is going to be the most feminist government in history? So how does accusing a woman who swears of being ‘unfeminine’ square with that? You Labour men and your right-wing, atavistic prejudices are a cabaret act unto yourselves.]

    Classy – sculpted lipstick, beer & fags in one hand, lit fag and mobajl in the other . Chavtastic.

  5. Paul Bonnici says:

    Is that Dr Muscat in the first pic or a look alike?

    Is-sinjorina ta’ l-ahhar ritratt wahda minn dawk li ma tistax tghaddi miskina. Wara s-sigaretti, il-birra, il-kont tal-mowbajl, in-nuccali parigg it-topp, l-imsielet u l-lights bil-blowdry ma jifdlilha xejn biex tghaddi ghax dal-gvern qeridna.

    • H.P. Baxxter says:

      • Angus Black says:

        Tghid ilha ma thallas il-kont tad-dawl, jew qed tistenna sa meta Gowzef irahhasulha?

        Nahseb li Gowzef mhux ha jrahhasulha imma x’aktarx iwahhalulha!

        L-ewwelnett ic-cans tiehdu int, mhux jigi moghti lilek. Inkella tkun beta male patetiku. It-tieni nett, kull gentleman ghandu jgorr condom mieghu kif xi darba kien igorr xabla jew bastun. It-tielet, ma fhimtx it-tieni sentenza tieghek, ghax hija totalment inkoerenti.

    • The Phoenix says:

      Insejt id-dwiefer foloz.

      He is rabbitting on about some mittilkless shite now. Bla sustanza.

      Diskors tal-buzzwords. Qed nisthajjlu Hitler jitkellem. Absolutely the same oratorical style. I don’t mean he is like him in deeds, obviously.

      • ciccio says:

        Have you noticed how she’s got her mobile color coded with her “dwiefer”? She doesn’t write SMS messages on her mobile. She carves them in.

      • heidi says:

        Yes indeed. It will be a government for gays and women, but I am a woman and I surely am not enticed to vote for someone who treats me like a token or a trophy to show how ‘feminist’ his government is.

    • ciccio says:

      U nsejt il-piercing fuq xoffitha (qisha tal-KISS), u dawk id-dwiefer artificjali li hdejhom ta’ Grace Borg jitwerwru.

    I feel sorry for the guy carrying the hippo.

  9. ron says:

    They have already given up. They are waving white flags of surrender even though the race has not yet started.

  10. Maria says:

    Absolute freedom is what we will NOT have if the Malta Labour Party gets elected. Have you seen what happened today? Festivals at Hamrun and Qormi, stopped because of the mass meeting. Yes Vive le liberte!

  11. Paul Bonnici says:

    Could she get any work done with those long nails?

    She is a staunch Leyber supporter by the looks of it, she is even wearing red sunglasses. How naff can one be?

    I can’t imagine a PN supporter wearing blue sunglasses with a matching t-shirt. They are in-your-face hamalli. We are getting this lot next year because of an incompetent spineless PN.

  12. heidi says:

    wow…the nails in the last picture are surely something…but she has one missing….

  13. Tania says:

    I’m watching Joe Muscat on One TV. It’s his speech at the mass meeting earlier.

    What a humiliating display. He is not at all convincing or in the least inspiring.

    How can any self respecting person admit to following this party and more so this “leader”?

    What a contrast to our Prime Minister and the brilliant speech he gave in Floriana for our independence celebration.

    I know the polls are saying Labour is ahead but I just cannot believe the Maltese people will choose Muscat over Gonzi. It beggars belief.

    • The Phoenix says:

      After the years of Fenech Adami and Gonzi, who tried in every way possible to educate and give thinking skills to this mess, we end up with this.

      Truly, we have got it wrong somewhere. Hate to say this, but we run the risk of being hoist by our own retard.

      [Daphne – He’s Joseph’s, actually.]

  14. heidi says:

    Michelle is dressed up with the EU flag’s colours…yellow and blue…no red in sight…how sweet…

    Is the one in the second photo, with her back to the camera, Michelle Muscat by any chance?

  17. anthony says:

    I was born fifty years too early.

    Foreign beers, cigarettes, fingernail jobs, mobile phones, designer clothing, sunglasses and costume jewellery..

    Veru hawn l-ghaks.

    We urgently need a bidu gdid to go back to the seventies and the eighties.

    Democratic Revolution my foot.

    Do any of these people know what it was really like then?

    They obviously do not.

    The PN has failed miserably in reminding (and convincing) all Maltese that, less than thirty years ago, this country was a glorified pigsty.

  21. Bidu Gdid says:

    Back to Red.

    And am I the only one to notice that in pics 1, 3 and 4 the supporters are carrying the old Malta Labour Party flags?

    A clear admission that nothing has changed in Labour.

    Teleprompter convention.

    http://www.maltatoday.com.mt/en/newsdetails/news/national/Muscat-says-Labour-will-build-new-middle-class-20120922

    Picture shows Muscat speaking to the teleprompters.

  25. Qeghdin Sew says:

    Love the t-shirt in the first photo: “Cocaine”. What sort of idiot would publish that on an official photostream?

  26. Village says:

    The persons in these pictures do appear to form part of a society in which the material benefits of prosperity are generally available.

    Certainly they do not look anxious or bitter because of some hefty electricity bill or as poorly dressed as the typical 1980s Mintoffian in his undervest and torn shorts.

    I claim these Labour supporters are having a field day enjoying the frills of a consumer and affluent society.

  27. foxdaphne says:

    f’ox il-liba ommok Daphne ahjar tibda tipprepara biex temefra terga ghax wara l=elezzjoni inqattaw lillik u l-ulidek u nehhulek in-nejk l-ghandk. Jista mhux ikkolok pilizija wara il-biebe tad-dar ghax inqattaw u imbghad tista tghid li zobb f’ox kemm ghandek li trid

    [Daphne – Ara, mela ghadhom qabda slavag il-Laburisti? X’sorpriza din. Slavag irabbu slavag ohrajn, u addio l-education policies tal-gvern Nazzjonalista u l-opportunitajiet tal-EU membership, ghax fil-fossa bqajtu, bhal dawk ig-genituri u n-nanniet taghkom, li niftakarhom sew ikissru u jfarrku. Jidher li hadd u ebda policy ma jista’ itellaghkom minn xagharkom. Il-vera hasra.]

    • ciccio says:

      Ghal dan ma kellux xi “linja gwida” Joseph Muscat?

      Per ezempju: “Il-Laburisti slavag norganizzawhom fl-Aristokrazija tal-Haddiema, korp ta’ bla dixxiplina, u minn zmien ghal zmien nibghatuhom ikissru ‘l hawn u ‘l hemm.”

    • Hubert Zammit says:

      Daphne, as you already said in another post some months ago, what really amazes me is that these people think that as soon as their party is returned to government, they have the divine right to do what they want, even if it is illegal. “Ikollok jew ma’ jkollokx pulizija mal-bieb inqattawk bicciet wara l-elezzjoni!”.

      Why don’t they try and do it now then? (don’t get me wrong) Why wait for “wara l-elezzjoni”? Bunch of uncivilised mobsters.

    • anthony says:

  28. Reuben Sachs says:

    “White trash” is a racist term, are you aware or just plain ignorant?

    [Daphne – It’s obviously not a racist term, because it’s used by white people to describe other white people.]

    • anthony says:

      White trash is just that.

      White trash.

      It is a racist term only for the plain ignorant.

      Otherwise racism does not come into it at all.

    • Reuben Sachs says:

      If you were to say ‘Black trash’ it would most certainly result in accusations of racism. ‘White trash’ is a racist term.

      [Daphne – You know, one of the most tiring aspects of running this website is dealing with people who have dysfunctional thinking skills. Yes, if black trash were actually a term (it isn’t), and if it were to be used by white people (it isn’t), then it would be racist. Also, if ‘white trash’ had been coined by black people to be used by black people, then it would be racist. But it wasn’t and it isn’t. It was coined, and is used, in much the same context as the evolution of meaning of the Maltese word ‘hamalli’. Is that racist? No, it is not. Now grow up and give it a rest.]

  29. joseph says:

    sewwa jejdu fuqek li int mara bla principju
