‘Fuck this shithole country,’ says Simon Busuttil in fiery farewell speech

Simon Busuttil has called Malta a shit hole country that can go fuck itself in his final speech in parliament before moving to Brussels.

The usually soft-spoken Busuttil delivered an expletive-riddled farewell address last night, as he resigned as an MP to take up the role of secretary-general of the European People’s Party.

“Before I leave, I just want to say – fuck this backwards shithole of a country,” the former MEP and PN leader began, drawing stares of disbelief from both the government and opposition benches.

“Honestly, I’m done with all you fucking cretins and couldn’t be happier that I’m leaving. I tried to show you a new way of doing politics, without all the yelling and acting like a monti hawker. I tried to expose corruption. But it turns out you cunts actually want your representatives to be crooked used-car salesmen, so I’m leaving you to wallow in your shit like the greedy fucking pigs you are.”

As speaker Anglu Farrugia attempted to rebuke Busuttil, the latter replied: “Oh fuck off you illiterate potato. Go and start a tusk force to learn how to pronounce ‘ubiquitous’.”

Busuttil saved his parting shot for former prime minister Joseph Muscat, who resigned last month.

“Look who’s going to Europe, you slimy ginger motherfucker. Enjoy being a disgraced has-been while I eat Belgian chocolate every day,” he said, before knocking his fists together and brandishing two middle fingers.

“Anyway, later bitches. I’m off to a civilised country,” he concluded, before dropping a microphone he had brought with him from home.
