It would be nice if somebody in our own government bothered to explain.

    George Vella said he’s optimistic about talks in Libya. Was he lying?

      I’m optimistic about dancing the lead in Swan Lake.

        And you should too, Alexander Ball.

        There is a greater chance of you getting the lead dance in Swan Lake than Manwel Mallia ever finding the source of those 500,000 euro in cash.

    With whom exactly did George Vella have discussions in Libya?

    Easy for this guy to say when he is an ex-pat.

    George Vella has appointed a special envoy for Libya, a fossil from the Golden Years named Joe Mangion. Maybe he can enlighten us. Perhaps he can also tell us why we need a special envoy when we have an Ambassador to Libya. Or is it because Manny Galea is useless?

    Why do we need an ambassador or special envoy to Libya when apparently their diplomats are over here under the wings of Malta’s security services whilst Islamic State supporters hold illegal demonstrations on our Sliema front unperturbed?

    Perhaps the new-fangled co-ordinator of our security services and ex-Commissioner of Police would kindly explain until the Commissioner of Police post is actually filled.

    This person is described as a CIA asset in certain articles. Is this perhaps part of the deal that the Maltese government made with the U.S. not to put up any opposition to its passport scheme?
