Michelle Muscat: a thick layer of foundation not matched to her skin tone is what every girl needs if she's in Manchester or Malta

What certificates was our Michelle handing out to these O-level resit students?

Please don’t tell me it was their actual MATSEC certificates.

Does she now represent the Education Department as well as the Labour Party?

And why is this voluntary initiative being organised through a political party, with parents stupid enough to send their children along to Brainwashing Central just as long as they can get something for free?

Another point: surely the news is that 50 girls and boys passed their resat (not a typo) examinations, and not that The Wife of Labour Leader Doctor Joseph Muscat Mrs Michelle Muscat handed out the certificates?

Again, what certificates?

MALTASTAR NEWS
(this evening)
Time for celebration: Michelle Muscat hands over certificates to 50 students

It was a special day for 50 students. All the effort and energy for attending private lessons in order to master the MATSEC exam resit finally paid off. In the Labour Party club in Naxxar there was a woman who understands the struggles that can come across when studying: Michelle Muscat.

“As a woman who also studied until very recently, and as a mother with children myself, I understand the anxiety of many students and their parents. It’s obviously easy to say that you want youngsters to succeed. The problem is, however, that many simply can’t find any help when they actually fail. We need to help them”, Michelle Muscat said.

Proudly, Michelle Muscat was handing over the certificates.

The initiative to support young people struggling with their studies started two years ago in Paola. Amazingly enough, all those teachers worked on a voluntary basis. Next year it will continue in Haz-Zabbar.

‘As a mother with children myself’ – it would be news if she were a mother with kittens. Or a mother without children.

    Daphne, I agree with the question you pose.

    I must note that it is good to see 50 more students pass the MATSEC with some voluntary help.

    But is it me, or has Michelle Muscat now taken over as party leader? Looks like Joseph is happy to stay home and let her take over.

  2. df says:

    You should view One’s news coverage. It seems that after each presentation our Michelle planted a double kiss on each participant. I am not that into etiquette but surely a handshake would have been enough.

  3. Tim Ripard says:

    Already anxious about the kids’ exams??

    • Isard du Pont says:

      Did you have any doubt that she was going to be the pushy mother from hell?

      At least she won’t be sending them over to nannu’s to help pack the explosives.

    • Grezz says:

      Yes, and they’re probably not yet four years old. Can you imagine what a pushy whatnot she’ll be by the time they reach their teens?

      [Daphne – Well, you know, she bled really heavily while carrying them. We know because her husband told the nation. Oh, and he used to wash her between the legs. He told us that too. Anything to deflect attention from the explosives that paid for his swimming-pool.]

  4. Bla Vot says:

    “Proudly, Michelle Muscat was handing over the certificates.”
    Proudly? She must have worked really hard to get them.

  5. Bus Driver says:

    Mid-dehra dawn kienu ic-certifikati tal-prajvit lessins li nghataw fil-kazin tal-lejber.

    Jigifieri ‘certifikati’ li ma jfissru xejn u li, allura, ma jiswew xejn – hlief biex Joey M ikun jista jzattat lil-mara tieghu w jiehdu daqsxejn ‘media coverage’ ga la darba f’tul sentejn ghadhu ma hareg b’xejn ta’sustanza..

    Wiehed jithasseb kif ma baghtx lil-siequ ghac-ceremonja tac-certifikati, flok lil-mara, daqs kemm l-ghaqsa tieghu ila tinghata publicita.

    • Diagnosed with dementia says:

      Oh, you mean like those ‘diplomas’ they give out to certify attendance at a one-day course on head massage?

  6. Antoine Vella says:

    What a pity that the persons who work for Maltastar did not attend English private lessons with the students.

    • Hot Tongs says:

      Why would they bother?

      They know the English really a lot, even if struggles came across them when it they studied.

    • Grezz says:

      Why send them to lessons? Why not just get rid of them and replace them with people who can write the language?

      • Not Tonight says:

        But who’s to say they don’t already have the best among those who are willing to write for Maltastar?

        As for Michelle, if she is so familiar with ‘the struggles that can come across when studying’, then was she used to resitting exams? The person who wrote that was certainly struggling with the language.

    • Rene Debono says:

      These lessons were for RESITS, therefore I doubt their level of English would be much better than Maltastar’s. How much can you teach in a month?

    • ciccio2010 says:

      Maltastar was listed in the recommended reading.

  7. rigu says:

    Can you see the trend here?

    “…a woman who understands the struggles that can come across when studying: Michelle Muscat.”

    “…He never complained, always feeling it was his duty to save the young boy, whom he did not know, and he would undoubtedly do the same again. That man was my father.”

    “…Malta may be a small country in size but should never be a small country in ambition. We need to play a role on the world stage; we have a lot to contribute. One person who readily understands this is Joseph Muscat.”

    I guess they will appeal to a sector of our society.

    [Daphne – I don’t wish to start up THAT debate again, but it sounds like the script for Gensna: the heroic struggle of the valiant Maltese in the face of adversity and surmountable obstacles, like a hairline fracture incurred while dancing at the August Moon Ball.]

  8. Cannot Resist Anymore says:

    “a woman who understands the struggles that can come across when studying: Michelle Muscat.”

    It reminds me of another Maltastar sentence elsewhere:

    “One person who readily understands this is Joseph Muscat”

    And since when are certificates “handed over” and not presented?

  9. Natural Beauty says:

    Her horrible foundation isn’t the only problem she’s got:

    http://everythinghco.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/bad-mascara.jpg

    Why would a woman in her late 30s need to wear enough make-up to sink a barge of explosives?

    She could at least get Jason Micallef to show her how to apply it properly. Oh sorry, they fell out.

    Two ladies are company, but three are a crowd.

  10. Hot Tongs says:

    Somebody please tell her that the bed-head look is strictly for those who sell sex for a living, whether on screen or off.

  11. maryanne says:

    And while they’re at it they can pay a visit to Norman Hamilton and give him some advice on jackets and ties. See Maltastar photo where he interviews Miss Tiff. http://www.maltastar.com/pages/r1/ms10dart.asp?a=11880

  12. Alan says:

    “… and as a mother with children myself, I understand the anxiety of many students and their parents.”

    Sun and Star having trouble with Peter and Jane ?

    Trigonometry should make for interesting times.

  13. I’m beginning to think Muscat has some condition we don’t know about. I refuse to believe a healthy young man wouldn’t be able to cope with most of his public engagements just because he broke his leg.

    After all, he wouldn’t be travelling by public transport and he could, for example, sit during the presentation of the certificates
    or while giving a talk.

    My neighbour is in her late sixties and broke her leg. Yet she carried on doing her shopping, most of her housework, hearing Mass and going to tombla/rummy.

    Another elderly woman I know broke her hip. She would do her basic shopping and errands walking with two sticks. She wore a bag across her body and managed.

  14. Anthony says:

    The only situation where a mother is without children is when all the latter predecease the former.

    God forbid!

    [Daphne – But then you’re not a mother, are you, though you were once.]

  15. claire maire says:

    Maybe they were certificates of attendance only, anda means of propaganda for Mrs Muscat.

    Her daughters are still in kindergarten kids, so why is she so anxious?

  16. ASP says:

    ‘As a mother with children myself’

    ‘as an electrician who deals with electricity’

    ‘as a butcher who sells meat’

  17. Herman says:

    Reminds me of Romania back in the 80s. Remember Elena Ceaucescu?

  18. Rita Camilleri says:

    Mhux ahjar qadet id-dar taghmel il-gingerbread men for her gay friends from abroad? Ara vera m’ghandiex taghmel.

  19. LG says:

    I hope the person who wrote this article was not the one who taught English language and literature at the Naxxar Labour Party Club.

  20. bookworm says:

    She certainly has a bit of the WAG about her. And what’s the point of those certificates? It wouldn’t boost your morale if you were to be handed a certificate for attending private lessons to resit your examinations and get the whole episode filmed for TV – for the whole of One TV’s audience to see.

    When the Labour Party uses Michelle Muscat as its frontman, it only strengthens my view of Michelle’s rise to WAGdom.

  21. robert says:

    These MUST have been attendance certificates. MATSEC resits were held in the last two weeks and results cannot be out yet. Il-Partit tal-FAKE!

  22. Shaun Azzopardi says:

    It seems as though Michelle is keeping Joseph under lock and key at home and attempting a coup as party leader.
