“Nationalist and homosexual? Don’t worry! Just run into your closet whenever Gonzi is around. The rest of the time you can stay out because nobody minds - honestly.
Failed marriage? Lucky enough to have found someone else to put up with you?
Living together for the last 5-10-15-20 years? Don’t worry! She’s only your best friend - Gonzi will believe you!
Failed marriage? Had the money to go away and get a foreign divorce? This is possible if you have the money, and if you have the money - you must be a Nationalist! It makes you a far more privileged European than us - why not? You’re worth it!
Don’t worry, if you don’t tell Gonzi, he’ll never know, just keep wearing your wedding ring “taht it-tinda”.
As for the rest of you homosexuals, divorceés and cohabiteés, if you really, really want to be a Nationalist candidate; Lawrence will surely put on his blinkers once again - don’t worry! Nowadays they are part of his everyday attire. Remember; flimkien KOLLOX possibli”
“Ma jisthix?”
That is what comes to mind when I think of this potentially politically suicidal notion that dear Dr Gonzi pushed himself into in 1998, when he said that he will not have any homosexual, divorced or co-habiting candidates within his party (heqhim, I will refrain from commenting in order to avoid a libel suit , but thankfully certain people’s limp wrists are far too evident; so you can guess the rest).
This point of view is medieval. I can’t understand how what happens within someone’s bedroom can reflect on their credibility in government.
Personally I’d rather have a divorced, co-habituating with their same sex partner CREDIBLE prime minister; then one who sends me bills of over €400 because he can’t figure out when to buy oil (even though everyone’s screaming that the price is about to go down).
Does this man realise that there is a large number of nationalists who are separated and who co-habitate? Does he now not acknowledge them? How closed minded can this person be to say “no, I don’t want any candidates who are like that!” … why not though? What do YOU have more than them?
Actually let’s take it this way;
Could it be that Dr Gonzi is insinuating that I am better than one of his darling youths who sit behind him in mass meetings - just because my parents are still together?
Could it be that Dr Gonzi is insinuating that I am better than one of his lovely campaigners (who might actually be –le Gasp- homosexual) that go door to door for him every five years, reminding people to not vote for the “hamalli socialisti”?
-Le! Gasp!- I must be so privileged!
Can I have my job at OPM now please?
