The Justice Minister: the strain is showing

Published: November 28, 2014 at 9:48am

I have received this comment from a reader:

Late last night we saw Owen Bonnici going down Old Theatre Street, from St George’s Square, in the direction of the Manoel Theatre, and he was positively sloshed.

He couldn’t walk in a straight line even if it were chalked on the street for him.

What a prize pair

    If he has hit the bottle then expect more car crashes.

    And did anyone watch the prime minister on Dissett? He was lying in every reply. And his face and attitude showed it.

    He now has a standard set of replies to the criticism which the government is receiving from the media – e.g. about Don Manwel, the price of fuels – and he continues to repeat those replies ad nauseam. He is quickly detaching himself from the public.

    He continued to lie about Enemalta, and how China will pay Eur 300 million for 35% of it. Even Reno Bugeja told him this was not correct, because China will be taking over control of key assets and that it was difficult for the public to understand the issues involved.

    • La Redoute says:

      Reno Bugeja was on a paid junket to China when Muscat snuck out of Malta along with Konrad Mizzi, Keith Schembri, Louis Grech, Mario Vella, Carmelo Abela (who had no government role at the time), and Kurt Farrugia to China to sell Enemalta to China’s communist dictatorship cunningly disguised as an energy company in September last year.

      Bugeja did not question the deal then. So his questions now are compromised.

      Muscat accepted to be on Dissett and to address those questions because he knew he’d only face friendly fire that would deliberately miss its mark.

      • Mike Farrugia says:

        If I am not mistaken, I saw Joseph Muscat blush when Reno Bugeja informed him that he was not supposed to know who is being investigated by the Commission for the Administration of Justice.

      • Dave says:

        The president chairs the commission. You do the math.

      No doubt about it. The true characteristics of a compulsive liar.

    • Viva il- Farizej says:

      You know Joey is lying when he puts on that dead- pan face and robotic expressionless eyes.

    I came across Carm Mifsud Bonnici in St. George’s Square yesterday evening and he was positively unassuming in demeanour.

      Mhux ghalhekk.

      Polar opposite difference in values to cool “fast with it” Labour.

      Give me Carm Mifsud Bonnici’s reasoning any day, at its own pace.

    I hope Janice Bartolo is worth the carnage.

  5. observer says:

    A little word of advice to Owen:

    Walk tall, head high;
    Tell the truth and never lie.

    One can’t do that when half-drunk, can one.

  6. edgar says:

    Janice must be thinking the opposite: hope that Owen was worth the carnage.

  7. chico says:

    Quite like “Manoel” theatre.

  8. wondering says:

    Are they all drunks? Shall we start naming them all starting from OPM staff? Their liquer drinking buddies all seem to be getting into the same habit of drink and women.

    Can you repost this please Daphne, because it deserves more attention:

    Jeff always has that puffy-eyed look typical of drunks. But Daphne, you should give Jeff a rest and tell us what Owen had to do to buy the silence of the 13-year-old with whom he had a fling. Or rather, her parents’.

    Is it possible to contact you by email?
