					<description><![CDATA[Daphne, I cannot see how Malta Labour Party becomes Partit Laburista in Maltese.  I can understand the logic behind Nationalist Party being Partit Nazzjonalista.

I think that MLP should have been Il-Partit Malti tax-Xoghol.  Where did Laburista come from?

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Good point. Maybe they think Labour is a name rather than just another word for work.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

This makes things worse.  Euro 7 less euro 1.16 (member&#039;s cost of voting) = euro 5.84.  Now, that is actually already a cheat if the annual rate is euro 5.  But then, if another billing is made on 1 Jan, then the euro 5.84 would have lasted for only about 3 months.  There is more those communication experts at Mile End need to tell the &quot;non-party members.&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Comment from timesofmalta.com&#039;s comments board:

&#039;&lt;em&gt;A Vella(16 hours, 50 minutes ago)jien l-ebda wahda ma togobni..u ghadni ma nistax nifhem ghaliex dal plejtu kollhu fuq l-arma. Seta facilment giet irrangatha li ghandna ghaz-zminijiet tal-llum. L-appell tieghi lil-leader hi biex jikkunsidra dan il-pass. Zgur li ser jibqa jkollna nies li jxejjru l-arma t&#039;issa u allura ser ikollha konfuzjoni shiha ta&#039; armi !&#039;&lt;/em&gt;

I particularly like the &#039;konfuzjoni shiha ta&#039; armi&#039; at the end.

And thinking that Labour supporters are still trying to contend with the much &#039;disgraced&#039; EU flag.

&quot;Liema bandiera niehdu ghall-meeting Mjer, il-gdida, l-imqatta, tal-Ewrupa jew ta&#039; Multa?&quot;

A Vella got a reply, incidentally:

&lt;em&gt;&#039;A Vella ....Naqbel mieghek mija fil mija. Jien ilni inxejjer l-istess bandiera mis sittinijiet, u minhiex ser inxejjer l-ebda bandiera ohra ghax dik kien ixejjira missieri. Min irid jifimni.&#039;&lt;/em&gt;
