Malta Council for Science and Technology chairman in shameful exchange with member of the public

The Malta Council for Science and Technology’s executive chairman has been involved in a shameful exchange with a member of the public, on Facebook.

The chairman, Muscat-government-appointee Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, responded to one critical remark from Karl Baldacchino, with a stream of insults and abuse, which are reproduced below.

To which Karl Baldacchino responds: “The sleazeball has spoken. You had better check whether somebody has spiked your drink – you right and proper idiot.”

Malta Council for Science and Technology chairman: “Here’s a photo of a Nationalist Party corner meeting in Zebbug. I think there are more people in the public latrine in the square. RCC’s and DCG’s tactics are really working.”

Karl Baldacchino: “If the camel were to see its own hump, it would die of fright (Maltese expression meaning that you are blind to your own serious deficiencies). Seek professional help.”

Malta Council for Science and Technology chairman: “Il-lallu how original. Predictably quoting that poor wretch, Daphne, now, Karl? And I quote Einstein. I was right to tell you what I did, hi…YOU ARE A COMPLETE IMBECILE.”

Malta Council for Science and Technology chairman: “IMBECILE: a person of the second order in a classification of mental retardation, above the level of idiocy, having a mental…”
