					<description><![CDATA[@ moderator.   Oh I&#039;m so sorry, it&#039;s just that  I recall an article of hers where she discussed how many of us use   &#039;talab skuza&#039; instead of &#039;talab apologija&#039;. You&#039;re just repeating her point then.  Ahem.

@ David S.  The story was on the front page of the Sunday newspaper ILLUM, you can find it in their archives; it was around September or October of last year.  As for the qualifications you can find them on his election leaflet which was available on his website.  google the name and you should find it. Fist degree: BA general in Maltese and economics; second degree: Masters in public policy.  Does that make one an economist? Hardly.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@tony Borg    oh didnt know this Joe Vella Bonnici story...please feed us more info.
There are so many MLP sympathisers with some shady background, especially those who were previously PN sympathisers and switched sides for some obscure reason, rather than out of conviction...  this is another reason why labour is such a  dysfunctional party, because there are so many of these devious charaters who are welcomed with open arms .]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@Worker
&quot;As for my level of intelligence - as a matter of fact I happen to have a very high IQ. &quot;
The fact that you mentioned it (not to mention your abysmal English) indicates the contrary:)

&quot;You heard him and believed him&quot;

I don&#039;t have to believe anything dear worker, I lived through those times, when speaking out against the government would result in having a bunch of labour baboons, half of them in police uniform, beating the crap out of you.

I lived through the period when my mother was attacked by the aforementioned baboons for protesting about (lack of) water.

I lived through the times when the baboons in chief closed down my school ( a private school ) when I was 10, so I had to attend lessons underground.

I lived through the times when the archbishop&#039;s kuria was ransacked by a huge mob of said baboons (in front of the police HQ) and they were described as the aristocracy of the baboon movement!

I lived throughout the eighties when one could not even buy a piece of chocolate in Malta, when we weren&#039;t allowed computers, ore even cordless phones or remote controlled cars (my dad had to smuggle one in for me)

I lived throughout the times when Maltese doctors were kicked out of Malta.

I lived throughout the political violence including murders and torture in the police HQ.

You see dear worker, I don&#039;t have to believe anything, you see, I was there!

By the way, I loathe Maltese festi with a passion so there isn&#039;t a chance in hell you would catch me there!

[Moderator - Imma Joseph qal sorry. Skuzi, Joseph talab apologija. Sorry, Joseph talab skuza.]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sorry, my comment should have been for &#039;David S&#039;  not &#039;hope&#039;.  It is the former who is promoting Joe Vella Bonnici of employing-illegal-immigrants-without-permit fame and who calls himself an economist.

[Moderator - Joe Muscat and Alfred Sant call themselves economists, too, despite not having the required academic background. It must be an MLP disease.]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@hope.
yes and maybe the secretary general would employ illegal immigrants without a permit so that he will reduce the Party&#039;s deficit. But then again what do expect from a person with a BA General degree in economics and Maltese and a masters in public policy who claims to be an economist?

[Moderator - Doesn&#039;t Alfred Sant sell himself as an economist when he is nothing of the sort? Joseph Muscat has a fine example to follow.]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@ David S

&#039;and please change your nick to hope(less)&#039;
But do you always have to show your arrogance? You people will not change unfortunately! Just comment politely and that&#039;s it. Your last statement would have been avoided if and only if, you are not a chicken like those labourite delegates! The chickens are on both sides and have bad but different characterististics.

No Joseph muscat as a leader is just perfect. He&#039;s the man. However, yes, about sant and jason I must agree.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@hope
like the labour idiots who re elected Alfred Sant leader after 2 electoral defeats.
The dysfunctional Labour party is just going nowhere thanks to your brainless delegates. Just imagine you elected George Abela Leader, Gavin Gulia Deputy Leader, and Vella Bonnici SecGen 5 years ago, Labour would be in power today.
So Dont blame the people just blame those brainless chickens..
