Karmenu Vella
Karmenu Vella’s daughter-in-law, Miriam Dalli Vella
Mr and Mrs Karmenu Vella are not going to be deprived of access to their grandchild, their son or their daughter-in-law when Miriam Dalli (who is Mrs John Vella) becomes a member of the European Parliament in June.
Karmenu Vella will be EU Commissioner concurrently.
How really cosy.
Taghna lkoll, taghna lkoll, taghna lkoll.

I expect Simon Busuttil to endorse Karmenu Vella, for the sake of national unity, as per bloody usual.

Not quite backing, but groaning about how much of a ‘fait accompli’ it all is.
Karmenu Vella jista jinbidel.
What is she doing with that hairstyle in her 40s? Looks like Little Bo Peep on a night out.
Let them lick the gravy train, “veru qatt ma raw xejn jahasra”.
As Joseph Cuschieri can barely contain his rage at being sidelined in the party’s EU campaign.
‘halliena qisna vazuni ghad-dehra’ he said.
Muscat seems to lack cognition of the one cardinal rule in politics: never break your promises.
Kellha bzonn baby sitter, u gabet il kunjat .
Same thoughts :)
That voice will be great for lulling the child to sleep.
Kif jghid il-Malti: il-guh ikrah.
That’s the root of all the corruption that has decimated Malta.
Miriam & Guy.
Karmenu Vella will be subjected to intense grilling by MEPs. I wonder whether he will pass the test.
Is this the same Karmenu Vella who did not know about the requirement of informing port control re overnight stays in unauthorized areas?
Will they be televising the assessment?
It will be held behind closed doors.
The EU is enough of a laughing-stock as it is.
That makes him ideal for trade and borders then.
Tara kemm se jaghmel bizniss. Imagine il-Guy addressing the EU parliament on Chinese imports routing the continent’s productive fabric.
‘Allura b’daqshekk, mhux tajjeb kollox irhis..?’
Does Jo stop to think for a minute on the image we are portraying outside these blessed shores?
We are ‘exporting’ people like The Fat Controller, Karmenu l-Guy to represent us in world forums. Not to mention the appointment of quasi octagenarians as ambassadors.
To be fair with the commissioner designate, perhaps he’s one of the former minister who both in the 96 short lived government and the current government kept away from controversies. What taints him is his Mintoffian past.. let’s see if he’ll be grilled on that in the Commission’s appointment process.
[Daphne – How exactly did Karmenu Vella ‘keep away from controversies’ in 1996-1998? He was part of the controversial government.]
What I mean is that he wasn’t involved in any scandal, unlike other Ministers of the day.
[Daphne – No minister of the day was involved in any particular scandal, except for a brief bit of rubbish with Charlie Mangion. It was the entire government that was a scandal in itself. In 22 months, Karmenu Vella didn’t have much time to get involved in scandals. In the 1980s, it was an entirely different matter. His driver was implicated by a fellow thug in the drive-by shooting on several PN clubs which resulted in the murder of Raymond Caruana, for one.]
