Daphne,
Mr Xuereb had no authority what-so-ever to act in such a manner. (i.e: NAZI style).
To be frank the rest of the issue (ie Ms Garrett, Austin Gatt or Arriva) is of no concern to me since I do not use the service in question.
Further; this is not about politics ( ie Blue or Red) however something has to be done or the situation will get worse.

I agree with you.

This is something totally different, regarding school transport and traffic.

My daughter arrived at home @ 4.15pm last Wednesday from school which finishes at 2.45pm. BTW I live at Tarxien and my daughter goes to Sta Lucija Secondary School.

Since both my wife and I work till 5pm, she has to use the school transport, which is a mess. So parents are forced to collect their daughters from school, which means more traffic.

We phoned the person in charge of transport at the school who gave us the mobile number of the garage responsible and the telephone number (always busy) of the person responsible at Education department.

A fortnight has passed and nothing has changed. As mark v said no-one is responsible in this country.

“Austin Gatt is about as much of a fucking wanker as I am a witch or a whore. ”

If that is so, then he is the biggest fucking wanker of them all.

[Daphne – Is it necessary to suffer from retarded development to get into some university courses these days? What next, ‘look in the mirror’?]

Andrew, ‘obscenities in English’ are NOT ‘perfectly fine’. I have lived in the UK for the last 30 years and more, and I can tell you that anyone who uses the ‘f’ word in company or public would lose respect.

The English language is more than rich enough to express displeasure without resorting to vulgar language.

Very well said. Good advice.

So was it “fucking wanker” or ” “fucking wanker” ” or “fucking “wanker” ” or ” “fucking” wanker”? I think we should be told.

Negative publicity instigated by those whose sole aim is ARRIVA’S failure.

The routes were set by Transport Malta, not Arriva. Fair’s fair.

If Austin is a wanker – no, even more, a fucking wanker – then I would say let’s have more f. wankers in politics.

I never believed that the breakwater bridge and the Barrakka lift projects would materialise, but they are there for everyone to be enjoyed soon.

Along with these projects there is the city gate project. Today I saw the new parliament’s last base beam being put in place, and also saw how professionally the Theatre Royal is being restored.

I’m also suffering because of the roadworks leading to the airport, the road to Cirkewwa and the Xewkija /Rabat road. I would blame hard-working Austin for that.

My idea of a fucking wanker is someone who feigns that he has a fractured leg or who does not show up in public for a whole summer and is seen only when the prime minister is on a week’s holiday abroad, or pretends that he’s compiling an important report when he actually is playing for time to be eligible for an MEP’s pension.

Ray Camilleri, neither you nor this student Nicola know the definition of a fucking wanker.
