Well, on paper, yes - but you must be very naive to believe that.  I can assure you that the civil service is jam-packed with people who not only will do whatever their party will tell them to do but they also pass on confidential information, sabotage and in extreme cases do physical harm to people and resources without mentioning the substantial skiving and absenteeism of some (anti-government) workers within the civil service, because the government is not &quot;theirs&quot;.

Obviously, there are some on the PN side too, but luckily in smaller numbers.  This is because some of these persons thrive on sucking up to those in power or even those who might be in power tomorrow and also because some think that the government is like a cow to be milked (as though the government is not funded by our taxes...).]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Just a small question..............what gives an opposition party the right to have in its possession an envelope with the government emblem? Labour has NOTHING to do with government.

And another thing Mario De Bono: I sincerely hope that no &quot;suldat&quot; or anything obeys orders from tal-Labour. Their only loyalty is towards the state.]]></description>
