On the campaign trail with Lawrence Gonzi, Ariadne Massa got an insight into the prime minister's regrets on Arriva, his ailing eyesight and dislike for makeup.
Follow a day in the life of the Prime Minister in the video above.
as I said ... 2:36 the car is moving and you can see the PM for maybe 2 seconds without the seat belt.
M.Farrugia - there is no seat belt. He clearly takes something from his side pocket and there's definitely no seat belt!
I feel sorry for both Joseph Muscat and Lawrence Gonzi, and any other politician for that matter. Politics often demonizes or venerates an individual and makes us forget that they are actually "human". I am not a nationalist by any stretch of the word, but there is one golden quote here:
"The moment when politics changes me, is the moment when I will leave."

No thanks. Only if he gives me 500 euro per week for two years and does not want them back.

I wonder what the papers he signed were? Some last minute, pre-election, vote-catching favour, perhaps?

I believe diplomats,ministers ,taxi drivers and the opposition leader are allowed not to wear seat belts for security reasons.
Chris at least he’s at the back seat, Joseph is at the front seat without a belt. "Staying at the back makes him feel queasy.” reports Ariadne.
