The Labourgeoisie: Malta has a new class of people which cuts right across the social spectrum

The favour-seeking, money-paying, contracts-scamming, posts-for-sucking, privileges-for-lackeyism giant army of people who are now having the country run according to their (lack of) ideals needed a name.
We can’t keep calling it the Taghna Lkoll brigade.
So I thought I’d coin one: the Labourgeoisie.

Let’s not forget posts for agents.
I trust the UK government is keeping tabs on this blog.
The UK election campaign has many parallels to what happened in Malta.
So many, that I am of the opinion that Labour in Malta has exported some of its agents to the UK.
Who in the UK is backing such moves? Who is opening up the doors?
It’s the long-promised new mittelkless.
The Labourgeoisie excel in labourparasitism.
As you have described them above, an apt term would be , erm, “Chinese”.
Fl-opinjoni tieghi, ‘Labourgeoisie’ tinstema’ sabih imma hi eleganti wisq biex tiddefenixxi lil tal-lejber. Ha nghiduha kif inhi, ma hemmx farka eleganti f’dak kollu li jghamlu ghax qishom iljunfanti ghadhom jitwieldu.
And the chosen few of the Labour clique:
Labour-choisi
How about Labourarchy?
One only has to look at economic statistics to realise there’s something consistently malfunctioning.
One of the PN’s greatest legacies was the MCESD, focussed, short reaction times and which objectivity and consensus was never put into question. It was one sharp instrument.
All we’re getting right now is unions contradicting government or complaining they’ve been put aside. That Bencini’s turning out useless. But then, what does he care about the private sector?
As for the other major promise, participation in environmental talk, it now results all members of all boards are appointed by the minister.
Malta deserves so much better, even because we had gotten used to open government, bickering every which way. Call it mental belt tightening
I like it, and not in a Facebook way.
Now you have to find a term for the forgotten minority. I can’t keep calling them Stricklandjani.
Whichever name we want to call the”Taghna Lkoll brigade”, they will remain severely misguided, amoral and pathologically narcissistic.
Laburgeoisi has a nicer ring to it
Mario Vella will love the term.
Love it.
It is too difficult to write with all those vowels let alone pronounce. I’d prefer il-mittelklass ta’ Joseph
I already see it morphing to Lejberguz.
Much easier for the masses to pronounce, and the guz will will of course be associated with Joseph.
But actually I think the Taghna Lkoll is more appropriate, even if just for the irony of it.
Il-hmar tista’ tharislu minn fuq, minn taht, mix-xellug, mil-lemin, minn wara jew minn quddiem. Id-dehra tvarja, imma flahhar minn l-ahhar, dejjem hmar jibqa.
I’d love to hear one of them try to pronounce it.
The New Middle Class he has been mentioning before the last election
It’s nice to have a choice of terms. It’s like having different suits for different occasions. I also like to call them the Muscatoffjani. And their economic style is Mintoffianomics.
Perhaps La Burgwazì (il-g bit-tikka) sounds more like it. Issa mhux kollox bil-Malti qed nispellu.
I love Labourgeoisie. COLPO DI GENIO Daphne!
