They’re not even sure whether it’s a manifesto (not a MANIFEST, idiots) or an electoral programme

It’s one big show – in fact they did not launch the manifest(o) at the MLP HQ where political discussions are supposedly to take place, but at the Eden arena, a place for entertainment and make-believe shows.
They can’t even spell February correctly.
Nor do they like red any longer … until the 10th of March.
Haha, I came on her specifically to post this.

Cracked me up.
Very easily-perceivable costings.
They are moving into freight now.
Labour is manifestly stupid.
9.30 am! But Joseph’s always late.
11.30 more like it.
His constant lateness is an indication that he is inconsiderate and has no respect for others.
Does anyone know if or when the manifestos are going to be released in English.
My vote goes to the party who does it first.
Having the torch logo on a blue background is an insult to all. (and that includes the blue background AND the torch)
No, ‘Manifest’ is correct.
If I am not totally mistaken the translation for ‘manifest’ is ‘invoice’ or ‘bill of lading’.
And a mighty one we will all be slapped with if the clowns make it to Castille.
The freaking invoice will be such that there will not be enough money in the banks to cover.
Above all, it is not just money we’re talking about, here. We are talking basic human rights and freedom of speech and expression, two things we had to go through tear gas, beatings and real bullets to regain.
At least, for once, the Labour Party comes clean, declaring in advance what clearly it has had in mind for years.
Must be a pure case of ignorance. They just don’t know, do they? It’s always the basics that get ignored.
What is the difference between Manifesto and Programme?
Buy a dictionary. In addition to that Debrett’s that’s so lacking.
This, was meant to have been their Programme.
A Manifesto sets out what you already stand for, not what you are going to try to set out to do IF you get elected.
That’s why the reasoning is flawed through and through. As well as all the pursuant aggressive arguments by their supporters.
I think the thing to say already decades ago was “Garbage In Garbage Out.” That means, that if what you understand initially is wrong, what you deliver is also erroneous. It doesn’t ever magically come together in the middle.
Now Joseph SHOULD know the difference, and unless he wishes to obtain the dizzy spin effect from chaos in true con-man fashion, I can’t think why the enlightenment hasn’t yet spread down the ranks.
Louis – at the very least – should have known – even if Karmenu Vella can’t really be bothered with such details.
If Louis is looking after the implementation of it, best start the whole team on the basics always. Word by word.
And as to Leo…. what was the caption on him this morning?
Standards are relative Joseph.
Now do you understand why I will never, ever accept what you say Joseph? because when words are spoken there is normally intent and meaning behind them. At the very minimum, understanding of definition. Appreciation of the weight they carry.
However, I can see quite clearly that whilst the basic meanings and definitions of words may escape you & Co., and most of your supporters, you are all quite happy to string them together endlessly as though you mean them.
Gosh, why on earth didn’t the ‘We’re in’ club spare you this gaffe?
What happens when we get to concepts?
When words are cheap, they are an insult to those you are exploiting.
Or, let’s see….
Perhaps they’re trying to twist it into being their (…whose?) Manifesto for the 2nd Republic?
I wish they’d decide once and for all what it is they stand for and what it is they’re called.
If one reads the manifesto it is a good example of lots of smoke without the fire. The fire will come in March after a campaign of kindling.
Their manifest is a complete fraud, and I call upon the UN to impound their dubious cargo.
The manifest shows that the Labour ship is carrying a consignment of gas.
Someone mentioned empty vessels. With this manifest, it figures.
Let me light an enlightening match.
A manifest is a document listing in detail the entire contents of a ship.
Cargo, crew, passengers etc.
In Maltese “il-manufest”.
I just finished reading a piece in which researchers are exploring the possibility of cloning a Neanderthal from a 25,000 year old fossilized femur of said ‘person’.
I have just contacted the group to inform them that it is not necessary. There are thousands of them in Malta. They can be found congregating around a very little, fat dwarf, every morning, standing behind a makeshift porta potty.
Harry, it’s actually easier to find those thousands of Neanderthals in Malta.
Why should the researchers take the trouble of coming to Malta in this cold weather?
Couldn’t you direct them to the fat dwarf’s Facebook page? There are at least 26,000 Neanderthals who have liked that page, and they can easily be traced on Facebook, with their pics, location, and so on.
They’re giving animals their own commissioner.
Cunning plan: get the dogs to chew our voting documents.
A friend of mine (oh how I wish I’d come up with it myself – I’d be peacock preeningly proud) replied to the invite with the following:
Grazzi imma ha nkun ix-XOGHOL, fl-EDUKAZZJONI.
SAHHA

Brilliant.
