“Hi. I used to be a poodle too once but now I’m going to be prime minister.”
I’m trying to picture him humming and hawing over the press call notification:
Joseph Muscat jzur l-Island Sanctuary f’Tas-….”Madonna, x’se naqbdu niktbu, ras?”
You’ll notice from the press coverage that he wasn’t too crazy about meeting the dogs. Instead, he posed with the volunteers. When a dog was brought out for a close encounter – a poodle, chosen either by somebody with a sense of humour or by somebody who never knew what his nickname was – Muscat made the same mistake he makes with children. He didn’t go down to its level and instead looked at it nervously.
The guy hates dogs. Why bother? It’s like it is with people who can’t stand children: when you put them into forced contact situations, it shows.
