Trolls who support Adrian Delia are full of venom these days for people identified as ‘blue 17’. The Adrian Delia trolls, presumably concerned that 17 is a very large number when deducted from 28, have shortlisted 10 usual suspects and called them Judas, traitors. I got a shade of that too. People tell me my [...]

So today it seems we’re back to the waiting game. Replacing Clyde Puli and Robert Arrigo will be side shows in which, one would imagine, the support base Adrian Delia still enjoys will be measured. That only really depends on whether there will be candidates that clearly represent a position in favour or against Adrian [...]

Someone who means well put up a collage of 17 members of the PN parliamentary group and labelled them “17 Blue Heroes”. They’ve been identified as the small majority in the group that has told Adrian Delia to pack his bags. As a snapshot of what happened the last time the PN’s parliamentary group met [...]

Sent in by Spartacus. What Sidney Smith (a clergyman and author) said of George Canning after the latter became Prime Minister in 1827: “Canning in office is like a fly in amber. Nobody cares about the fly; the only question is: How the hell did he get there?” (The reader is advised to substitute Adrian [...]

Adrian Delia’s act of schoolyard bullying from this morning has to be some sort of turning point. For everyone else, if not for him. In an earlier piece, I wrote how Adrian Delia compared the investigations into his Soho affairs with the evidence planted on Pietru Pawl Busuttil’s farm to frame him for the murder [...]

At a meeting of the PN parliamentary group Adrian Delia lamented the lack of sympathy he found from his parliamentary colleagues after a police superintendent confirmed in open court that the police are investigating reasonable suspicions of money laundering when Adrian Delia allegedly helped a London prostitution ring clean proceeds from crime. Superintendent Ray Aquilina [...]

Sent in by someone known to me. “Don’t allow the Government to blackmail the Opposition Leader” Partit Nazzjonalista leader Adrian Delia in a hysteric rant on the party radio on Sunday urged party supporters to not allow the government to blackmail the Opposition Leader. Only for the graduate lawyer conveniently forgetting to point out that [...]

Adrian Delia thinks nothing can bring him down. He draws on to an imaginary past where titans led parties and no one could touch them. He conveniently forgets their hard work behind the scenes. In the past three years since he’s been on the scene people have weaved all sorts of conspiracies to try to [...]

Adrian Delia’s case for his stubborn permanence at the headship of the PN is flimsier than ever. He said yesterday he did not want to betray those who wanted the PN to be closer to the people. Who’s that? The 13% who said they trust him? Because nobody else is impressed with his efforts so [...]

The PN are asking people to send them money because it’s Eddie Fenech Adami’s birthday tomorrow. There can’t be a worse day for PN supporters to be nostalgic for the days of Eddie Fenech Adami. The fact is there won’t be anyone like him and people need to start getting used to the idea of [...]

US prosecutors have charged Bahram Karimi with busting US sanctions against his native Iran. The bill of indictment lists but does not identify two co-conspirators with Bahram Karimi. Financial crime blogger Kenneth Rijock identified in a post today the two co-conspirators as Ali Sadr Hashemi Nejad and his father Mohammed Sayed Hashemi Nejad reputedly one [...]

PN stalwart Louis Galea, engaged by Adrian Delia in 2019 to recommend reforms to revive the party, published a letter he wrote today to the party leader insisting on immediate changes to the leadership. In the letter Louis Galea complains that the party leadership has dragged its feet for several months after Adrian Delia had [...]

Do watch this classic Jacob Borg interview with Adrian Delia on his way into the office this morning. Adrian Delia looks beat. He’s disheveled, slouched, squinting and logorrheic. And he doesn’t even have the energy and presence of mind to realise how pathetically pointless his deflections are. The fact that Jacob Borg is taller than [...]

The leadership of the Labour Party last November had a problem on their hands. The party leader was extremely popular with their supporters such that in surveys anyone who voted Labour said they trusted Joseph Muscat. But he was implicated in a murder cover-up that had engulfed the government’s agenda for two years. The party [...]

A statement by the PN Parliamentary Group set out the numbers. 17 of 30 members of the Parliamentary Group has told him to leave. That’s a larger majority than it looks because the complement of 30 includes 2 Members of the European Parliament that are not relevant for the President’s evaluation of whether Adrian Delia [...]

Robert Abela ruled that Owen Bonnici did not need to resign after he was found to have breached the right to free expression in a case I brought against him over the systematic removal of flowers and candles from the protest site opposite the law courts demanding justice for Daphne Caruana Galizia. When he gave [...]
