					<description><![CDATA[Would it be possible to take the government/Curia to the European Court of Human Rights if the NO votes win, as this is surely discrimination against those who have not got the opportunity or finance to get a divorce from abroad.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - It is states, not religions, which are sued in the ECHR. Besides which, the Curia/Roman Catholic Church has nothing to do with it, because it doesn&#039;t run the country.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am quite convinced that we have all been taken for a ride by JPO &#038; Co. I am sure the Labour Party is behind this charade.

Divorce could have been presented as a pre-electoral pledge by Labour, yet...there came JPO and Varist with a private bill. Why, I wonder?]]></description>

HP, Daphne has predicted that if the No position taken by the PN at the forthcoming referendum wins, then Labour stands to win with a landslide in 2013.

I am only saying that, in that case, Pullicino Orlando&#039;s political profile will be lifted to the same status of Joseph Muscat - after all, they were on the same side of the referendum and on the side of the liberals if you wish.

I am not suggesting that the PN will ever consider him for leadership.

Well, the PN can claim that he won them the last elections, even if he could equally have lost those elections for them.

If Daphne&#039;s prediction comes true, then we can all be sure that it was Pullicino Orlando who lost the next general elections for them.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - No, we can&#039;t say that. We are all responsible for the consequences of our actions: Pullicino Orlando did not force the prime minister to handle the divorce issue this way, or form the thoughts of the cabinet ministers who are irritating the very people who voted for them.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

Malta&#039;s future lies with Muscat as PM in 2013 and JPO as leader of the opposition!  What a future indeed ... and it&#039;s all brought about by us.

Daphne, ghid li trid fuq id-divorzju imma ma naqbilx mieghek li ggib powsters simili li jkasbru u joffendu d-dinjita&#039; taghkom in-nisa.

Which prediction do you mean? Labour winning the election and JPO becoming PN&#039;s candidate for the PM&#039;s job in 2018? No comprende.

Please elaborate because this could be an interesting, if horrifying, scenario.]]></description>
