Comment of the Day

Kukkudrill – posted beneath the photograph of Karmenu Vella, Dom Mintoff, and two male friends on board a yacht (see previous post)

That yacht is none other than the Noneta tal-Marsovin. Anzi m’hemmx xi wahda topless maghhom like there was when Oggi or Gente – can’t remember which one it was – took pictures of them and published them in a spread, and the government banned the importation of that particular edition. Anke fil-bunga bunga kien qammiel pesti, Mintoff: somebody else’s naked ladies on somebody else’s yacht, ma jmurx jonfoq sold.

    Give thanks for the death of Speedo trunks, especially the white variety. Please don’t tell me that Dom and Karmenu and the beachboy and footballer they’ve got with them there have been oiling each other, because that’s what it looks like.

    Creepy.

    The link below speaks for itself – the one and only Brigata Laburista in all its glory.

    And right below the pictures of indoctrinated children firmly holding onto pictures of KMB you’ll find reminiscences of past gaiety…”L-akbar sodisfazzjon hu li minn dawn iz-zewg Brigati hargu laburisti attivisti kif ukoll laburisti bi principji sodi daqs l-azzar !”

    Too much from our sad past may not have been laid to rest forever after all.

      “Sfortunatament fl-1987 il-Partit Laburista tilef il-gvern u bosta familji, mhassbin minn possibilita’ ta’ transfers u vendikazzjonijiet b’rabta politika, kontra qalbhom kellhom jaghzlu li ma jibqghux jibghatu aktar lil uliedhom fil-Brigata. Hekk sfaxxat ukoll it-tieni Brigata Laburista fir-Rabat.”

      Dawn possibli hutna Maltin?

    Sadly, not much had changed in the 80s from these days

      Stephen, you were probably replying to Lest we forget!
      What you point out is also not different from similar Fascist movements, the Balilla and the Avanguardisti.
      Political despots share common traits.
