Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando doesn’t have EUR2,000 to spare

because I really give a damn about charity

Golly, I’m SO impressed.

Rabid Jeff’s carnival party at the Malta Council of Science and Technology HQ at Villa Bighi has raised EUR2,000.

Wow. A-may-zing.

Which kind of proves the point that this was all about the party and not about the charity.

Please don’t tell me that Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, his wife Carmen, Consuelo Herrera, her boyfriend Robert Musumeci and her brother Jose Herrera couldn’t come up with 2,000 euros between them.

But then they wouldn’t have had a party at Villa Bighi, would they, using state premises and staff on the MCST payroll – and Jeffrey wouldn’t have had a naff photo opportunity with a cheque.

Il-vera racanc ta’ nies, jahasra. Birds of a feather and all that.

    Does anyone know what costume Jeff put on at the party ? Must have been one in red and blue stripes.

    Should the Chairman of the MCST make an official presentation of a donation wearing jeans?

    Daph, the party was advertised as having a welcome drink, free-flowing wine and soft drinks, no spirits, at Eur50 per person. Since the venue was free, then surely a minimum of Eur 25 per person should have gone to charity.

    Was the turnout a measly 80 persons? Or did Jeffrey charge an organiser’s fee and keep part of the takings? Or was it such a flop that as per your suggestion he and his close buddies donated Eur 2000?

    Jacket, shirt, tie, jeans, and that cocky body posture.

    Can’t believe how he fooled all those voters 5 years ago.

    He must have put some money aside to top up his cellars with Earl Grey 12 year old.

    What’s wrong with those cars?

    Was that not the time when any Mintoffian, even a dwarf used to be recruited? Anything larger than a Mini posed a problem reaching the pedals.

    To hell with height requirements. To hell with the Constitution.

    To hell with you Dumink.

  8. Aunt Hetty says:

    With the sort of hyperinflated fees Musumeci charges his muggins clients, one would have expected the donation to be at least 20,000 euros.

    Malta Today will not get this story as they did with Malta Enterprise. Two weights two measures.

    The chairman of MCST should be “King Karnival” of MCST.

    The Marxist Ghoul could at least squeeze out a smile.
