GET IT STRAIGHT, FOR ONCE
If you take a look under my Beck column, you'll notice a number of comments lambasting me for pre-judging Mr John Dalli. If you actually read my column, you'll see that nowhere do I judge Dalli to be guilty of anything, though I do make comments on...
BOGEYMEN EVERYWHERE
The state to which some areas of the media have been reduced is pathetic, really. These so-called journalists seem to have dedicated themselves to following the outpourings of characters such as that Debono fellow and the other bitter...
MUSCAT'S FLIP-FLOPS
"A Labour government would build on the success in the gaming sector..." said Joseph Muscat last Thursday, no doubt while he was in the flip cycle of his mode of electioneering. Out of this side of his face, Muscat sends the message that Labour in...
DEMOCRATIC CREDENCE
Carmelo Abela, writing in the other paper on Monday morning, made something of a noise about how it was time for the country to be returned to democracy and such-like stirring calls to arms. You'd have thought he was about to take up knitting and...
GUNNING FOR FUN
Austin Gatt is firmly in the sights of Franco Debono, aided and abetted, cynically and opportunistically, by the Labour Party in all its (in)gloriousness. That film title fits the lot of them well. The reasons why Debono has it in for Gatt are...

The confusion compounded by Joseph Muscat's moveable feast about the minimum wage was made even more profound by his Writer-in-Residence, Karmenu Vella and his (gaffe?) about how the living wage concept is still on the cards. Come on, guys,...
BABY YOU CAN PARK MY CAR
So it came to pass that the Government listened to the people and suspended a decision of immense national import, the privatisation of car parks, of all things. It came to pass, thus, that the Opposition's motion to have the notion of privatisation...
PROMISE THE EARTH, AND THE MOON
Just noticed I haven’t blogged for a bit – so sorry, time flies and all that. Don’t you think that Labour Lil’elves, and sometimes I wonder whether we shouldn’t start calling Joseph Muscat L.I.C. (work it out) slightly missed the point about the...
TALK, TALK
According to Mr Lino Spiteri, Labour's Mass Meeting in Ta' Qali was impressive, to which all I can say is that anyone who finds himself impressed by the size of a crowd (at either of the party's meetings, actually) should be somewhat careful, lest...
