    In Joseph’s case, he didn’t even get elected – he needed to be co-opted to Parliament instead of the Brussels sprout.

      I think you mean the kohlrabi.

    • Matt B: Who knows, we may see Simon Busuttil co-opted to parliament soon. What will you say to that ?

      • Matt B says:

        Alas, the likelihood of Simon Busuttil being co-opted to Parliament is very minimal at the moment, Mr Privitera, considering Franco’s intentions to vote against the budget irrespective of its contents.

        Besides, the two situations are VERY different.

        Tonio Borg is freeing up his seat in Parliament readily, on his own accord; while Cuschieri’s hand was essentially forced in order to make way for Joseph Muscat.

        There could also be a situation whereby someone else is elected instead of Borg from his district by means of a by-election, to fill the gap until the next election comes; with another Minister being appointed Leader of the House in the interim.

      Yes, could happen too to Simon Busuttil at the tail end of the legislature.

      You know, shit happens.

    The problem with the political joke is that once you gave the vote, you can’t have it back.

    • canon: Just as many thousands did in 2008 to Lawrence Gonzi after hearing him say – and wrote it in the electoral manifesto – that he would be lowering the tax rate from 35% to 25%. They couldn’t take their vote back then. But many will be giving him their answer in a few weeks/ months time !

      • canon says:

        According to Charles Mangion, taxation in Malta is adequate and need not to be lowered. So why are you complaining?

    Franco never had a normal carefree childhood. He was too busy preparing his priedka tal-milied and being a tifel biezel to graze his knees. Wrong move. He never got the child out of his system.

    Though he attained physical maturity – his cock (sort of) grew, and his hair has begun to fall out – he remains psychologically arrested at Form II level, quite incapable of forming a proper relationship with a woman.

    I fear he may be condemned to a life of seething contemplation of his ‘enemies’ and of his martyrdom in his mother’s gold and velvet sala.

    Made in Brussels, assembled in Malta.

    Robert Abela said Labour carried out its research and concluded the PM was lying. Chris Cardona did the same.
    They even carried an ad on Super 1, saying what Gonzi said ‘mhux minnu’.
