Why worry it is their funds, it only bothers me when I hear of Ministers who gets jobs done in their homes, through promises of works contracts being given to the contractors.

[Daphne – I hear of lots of things, Jacky, including some very unusual things Joseph Muscat got up to in Brussels. Fortunately, I am not one to take ‘what I hear’ as fact. You have also heard that I am a witch who flies around on her broom at night. You obviously have a great need to check whether this is actually true. Please give me a call and I’ll show you that my broom doesn’t do ‘megiks’. Credulousness and believing ‘what you hear’ are signs of a medieval mind, Jacky. As for your ‘why worry because it’s their money’ argument about the leader of the Labour Party buying himself a seat in parliament to make himself leader of the Opposition, I now realise just how frighteningly poor the Maltese understanding of democracy really is. Buying your seat in parliament, or offering money to a member of parliament in order to take his seat is a serious issue.]

Since I don’t donate any money to any party so they are not using my hard earned cash, on the otherhand the government takes a good part of my wages, and I hope it is not misused.

Is it because there is no Northern Irish government?

James – please refer to Daphne’s above comment re the dockyards, when it comes to tax money going down the drain.

Re your comment here – so, you’re saying that YOU won’t be paying anything simply because you DON’T support the current administration? Isn’t it rather because you don’t work and pay tax here in Malta, the country you chose to settle in when you left Northern Ireland (for whatever reason…), and do nothing but find fault with? You definitely need to get a hobby James.

And while we’re here – your calling the Prime Minister a retard, simply because you are not of the same ‘colour’ is disgraceful and vulgar. You are an embarrassment to the British.

@ Beowulf

So the retard has now become idiot. He’s the prime minister of the country in which you choose to spend most of your time while not being one of itc citizens. How would you feel if a group of Maltese went to live in Northern Ireland and spent their time on the internet calling David Cameron a retard and an idiot and insulting his every move?

I had the privilege of meeting a lot of Irishmen in my professional life. Most of them are great people, some of them absolute lowlifes. But you sir take the cake. You are an absolute a**hole.

Go back to wherever, why don’t you? And while you’re at, get a life.

[Daphne – Is he actually Irish? Or just an Englishman in Northern Ireland?]

Another plus :Plus Martin McGuinness as Deputy First Minister at Stormont; that must really stick in Beowulf ‘s craw.

Beowulf, leave us to it. You can bury your dead.

I refer to De Filippo’s version.

Tyrell, if you are not Maltese and don’t live in Malta, why on Earth are you even commenting on the Maltese government?

“Are you saying that it was right for Gonzi to break YOUR countries own laws in order to build this new Parliament? ”

Hmmm, what’s YOUR country, Beowulf?
