If they’re boats, then they must be Joseph’s navy

You can’t possibly have missed our prime minister’s reference to his navy, in his Al Jazeera interview. He must mean those patrol boats we got from our friends.
Does that make the army’s helicopters our air force?
I mean really, what an idiot.

And he said he receives calls from Emmanuel Mallia during the night.
But he was careful to avoid mentioning the calls and SMSs he receives from Frankie Tabone…
He’s back: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVAZJn1C-jI
Ah, he always was one of the ‘Village People’.
‘We’re in the Navy.’
Didn’t know that their line up included a vicious clown.
He doesn’t think before he speaks. It is obvious to me that he is surrounded by incompetent people.
The man is out of his depth.
One is reminded of Mintoff’s coast patrol craft “navy” being sent out on the high seas to confront Gaddafi’s real navy expelling Saipem from oil exploration in what Malta considered her territorial waters ending up with our “navy” needing assistance from the Libyans.
British humour?
Definitely.
He’s well under water
I think you’re being really unfair because you fail to mention Gozo Channel and Virtu Ferries. I’m sure they lose as passenger ships when in reality the bar is manned by the secret service.
I do not have perfect spoken English but I would expect the prime minister to be prepared and to speak proper English. He translates Maltese into English there and then.
It is quite obvious that that is what he does.
And he’s Popeye the sailor man.
Well, his connection with the Spinach has already been given wide coverage in the media…
If this is the ‘Inglix’-speaking top end of the new ‘High Society’, I would dread to imagine what the bottom end of their ‘Low Society’ is composed of.
‘Inglix hjumer’? Int bis-serjeta’?
Oh yes, there’s the question of those 36,000 votes.
Might I say just a case of ‘Never mind the quality, feel the width’.
At least he did not tell Al Jazeera that he was the Commander-in-Chief.
I wonder who’s for the next iced bun :
First Lord of the Admiralty or First Sea Lord as they call him nowadays
This guy will tweet “Malta expects that every man will do his duty”.
If it were not harming our poor country, it would be all so hilarious.
Don’t go giving him any bright ideas.
You’re so funny, Daphne.
Thank you Dr Joseph Muscat. Another kill me now moment.
OMG. The captain’s black. The sailor’s black. The Indian is black. And they’re all gay. Can our prime minister, when he stands up to make them smell the coffee, please use his magic podium?
Or maybe his Mrs could organize a gingerbread man day and a pied piper to Libya? What hypocrites.
By this token, our naval prowess exceeds that of larger countries such as Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria and even Switzerland – alas, all landlocked
Morna l-bahar
The way the UK is heading, they will end up in the same situation as Malta with more generals than tanks and more admirals than ships.
It is not so much a matter of being, or not being, an idiot, but the danger that the leader of a government could delude himself that he has so much power, when the reality is obviously otherwise. And also, in believing that he is impressing the world.
Such delusions of grandeur led Mussolini to bring so much misery to his country, Italy.
And Mintoff to Malta.
Mummy must have given Little Joey lots of boats to play with in the bath.
The point is that Malta does not have an armed forces with separate services: army, navy and air force. We have an army, which we call “Armed Forces of Malta” (rather confuses matters. Could have called it “Maltese Army).
What the ignoramus Muscat calls the “navy” is the Maritime Squadron. It’s an army unit. Just like the Air Wing.
You may think I’m splitting hairs but hair-splitting is the basis of rational thought. Without it you end up with some fool as prime minister.
