Remember we had commented about St John’s Cathedral Foundation losing the public affairs game. Frankly I think so did Austin Gatt vis-a-vis the utility rates. One was an obvious lack of healthy debate (prior to your contributions), whilst Austin’s was a total communication eff up. Seriously someone must be accountable.
As someone said on Super 1, “dasester”.

Carnival is extended by another week, no?

We should not forget the mass produced A2-sized ‘posters’ printed in bold black letters, stuck to 20 mm PVC pipe with cable-ties…….”ISSA DAQSHEKK” , “IL-POPLU MA’ JIFLAHX IKTAR”, “FEJNHOM IL-BOZOZ?”, “IL-HADDIEM TMATTAR”, “WE WILL ROCK YOU” .
With or without the rally we still have to face the same reality: we are going to have lower tariffs when Austin says so. Are these eleven unions posing as the liberators who will rid us of Caesar on the Ides of March? Will there be a soothsayer in this (wrong) crowd?

How do they plan to fight them? With batons? With tear gas?
