What I learned about the Junior Eurovision from Facebook

 

  1. On Friday, there was a power cut (Konrad Mizzi, you fiend, you)
  2. No, Enemalta did not supply the power; there was a technical fault in the generator.
  3. “How typical of an incompetent Labour government” (ah, that satisfying feeling of Schadenfreude)
  4. No, the show was produced by PBS, led by Anton Attard (so indirectly it was the Nationalists’ fault, innit?)
  5. How embarrassing for Malta, we were humiliated, oh the shame, how will we face the world tomorrow? (because, you know, the world’s press was all agog with what was happening at Malta shipbuilding)
  6. “Relax, this was only a dress rehearsal, and why do people always have to criticize everything?” (Repeat after me: I will defend my party no matter what, I will defend my party no matter what)
  7. Let’s hope it doesn’t happen on the night! (but half-wishing that it would happen in order to be able to crow with delight about disastrous Labour again)
  8. On the night, everything ran smoothly, no glitches, great show (humph! But why did presenter Moira Delia have to mention Friday’s power cut? Oh the shame, the humilation, how moritfying etc.)
  9. It was a terrific promotion for Malta with the edited clips showing the island at its best (Thank God for the PN who made it what it is today)
  10.  It was a terrific promotion for Malta with the edited clips showing the island at its best (Thank God for Labour which brought the whole show to Malta in the first place because Gaia last year won under a Labour government – so there)

Roll on the adult Eurovision next week so that we can make a song festival all about partisan politics. Inevitably, inexorably, interminably, everlastingly, for ever and every Amen.
