Sad but true…..
I’ve always thought so although I did have some suspicions when he went to watch the famous football match.
True. A bit naive of Tonio Fenech but you shouldn’t look further than that. The irony of it all is that all the while the tycoon switchers were cosying up to Labour. The real scandal isn’t his acceptance of that clock (naive again) or his visit to Highbury, but the appointment by the Prime Minister of multi millionaire businessman Keith Schembri as his chief of staff.

The belief in some sort of justice in the natural order of things and that good – whatever that is – will prevail is as stupid as believing in fairies.
Am posting this here but sorry for being completely off topic. I wish someone would tell The Malta Independent to stop allowing comments in Maltese. It makes the site look like a parish newsletter.
The Malta Independent is an English language newspaper and no other language should be used.
I wish the comments would not descend to the level of those on the Times of Malta website with petty cat fights between people who post comments.
The Malta Independent is an English language newspaper and so comments should be in English only. As for those who want to post in Maltese, there are Maltese language newspapers where they can do so.
And I hope that The Malta Independent has a hands-on moderator who can sort out the wheat from the chaff and nip in the bud any school playground name-calling inane posts.
I truly don’t understand Times of Malta’s policy about internet comments. I have posted a couple of normal non-insulting, but questioning, comments, and they have not been uploaded.
Yet the editor allows an infinite number of stupid, nonsensical, racist and nauseating comments, to say nothing of the cat fights.
Yes it does, but at a price.

You need to go half way and buy a ticket.

Can anyone enlighten me as to how anyone can MEASURE unused energy?
Measurement of energy is done with meters connected to the load: voltage X Current X Time
Power has to be used to become energy.
Energy is power used for an amount of time.
Energy cannot be created, nor destroyed.
Any engineer would tell you that a generator would demand more fuel as soon as the load increases.
So if, for argument’s sake, there’s a public holiday and everyone does not go to work and goes out for a picnic, the electricity load would be at a minimum. Electrogas would be raking in money for fuel which their generators did not even consume.
I think it is high time we knew the contents of that contract.
Very good question! Excuse the exclamation mark but it’s the sort of thing every damn politician and pundit should have been asking and answering.
The generator is the voltage source. The source sets the voltage, but does not determine the current. That is determined by the load. If the load draws no current (e.g. your friza is switched off), then no energy is drawn from the source.
In practice, it means there is less resistance in the generators. However, all generators have to turn at a certain frequency which is controlled by making the engine turn faster or slower according to the current drawn.
If the mysterious unpublished contract stipulates a base load that’s way above the average actually needed, then we’re well and truly Ron Jeremied. Because those Chinese technicians at the new power station would either shut down some of the generators (unlikely) and still bill the Maltese government for they would have consumed or (more likely) just let the generators turn on full whack, because it’s not their money.
One small detail: generators run at the same speed at 50 Hertz in Malta.
The bigger the load, the more fuel is required.
Remember when Simon Busuttil said that 36,000 voters can’t be wrong?
Well he was for saying that and those pinheads were too.
