This week(ish)

May 29, 2008

Martin Schultz’s endorsement – Who cares? He’s going to win anyway. Michael Falzon can write all the letters he wants, and Daphne can go on explaining to us why she thinks it’s wrong. The Nationalist Party has changed tactic: from the reverse-psychology of “endorsing” George Abela to the harsh criticism of Joseph Muscat. The threat lies in the funny man with ginger hair, the Santian clone with a likeable personality, the Laburist-cum-yuppie poodle who’s going to give it to Gonzi where it hurts.

Vodka’s downer – Morena gave a decent performance of a slightly less than decent song. The guy with white hair should resign once and for all, and he shouldn’t be replaced by Becky’s evil twin sister or Claudette the Challenger. He should be replaced by someone who can get sponsors to fund our participation so that we don’t have to spend half our nation’s culture budget on the kitch fest. He should also be replaced by someone who actually understands in music and has an ounce of creativity.

Labour’s loss report – Hahahahahahaha. So it was Forum Zghazagh Laburisti who fucked up after all, not the rent-a-mob crowd at University. Please take the report seriously, we can’t have Gonzi’s non-government for another 20 years. Oh and remove that retard Stefan Zrinzo who, judging by his pathetic interview on Bondi+, thinks that the job of the President of the MLP during a campaign is to go on house visits and ignore polls.

Austin Gatt and his roads of perdition – Stop talking and do something. It takes me 15 minutes to walk to my nearest bus stop, and an average waiting time of 1 hour. Bus drivers are rude and smelly. It costs too much, and it’s insanely inefficient. I have a car but I can’t afford petrol and I always have problems to find parking. I don’t think boats are the best solution. I don’t know what the best solution is, but all the Nationalists seem to think that you’re the God of getting things done, so I’m giving you six months to do something. Just make sure no bridge-construction is involved.

The Times, the MLP’s leader contenders and Divorce – Thank you Mark Micallef and Herman Grech for asking the five contenders about their views on divorce last Sunday. Not because we did not know their answers, but because we didn’t expect them to be asked on the Times. Thank you Joseph Muscat for being clear. Thank you George Abela for mentioning gay rights. As for Varist, Marie-Louise, and especially Michael, stop being pussies or get out of the race. Labour does not need Nationalists at the helm.
