A fine one to talk!

If they will not, we will then know who is exactly ‘iggranfat ‘to what.

What a difference there is between the attitude of Jesmond Mugliett and other ex-ministers/parliamentary secretaries.

Francis Zammit Dimech and Edwin Vassallo come to mind. One of them was a minister and the other was a parliamentary secretary and both were not re-appointed after the 2008 election.

But their loyalty to the party and to the electors who voted for them because they were on the PN ticket hs been exemplary.

There are others who were not re-appointed but remained loyal. Ninu Zammit is one, and although one rarely hears of him now he has never uttered anything against the Prime Minister who has not re-appointed him.

Ninharaq meta nara lil dawn is-suppst ribelli, li l-unika raguni tal-attegjament taghhom hi biss vendetta personali, jkomplu jsahhnu is-siggu parlamentari f’isem il-Partit Nazzjonalista, barra li fil-kaz ta’ tnejn minnhom ghandhom karigi li jirrendilhom dhul finanzjarju extra.

Kick them out. The worst that can happen is that they would vote against the government again. So what?

Some recently enacted regulations are irrational.

They make as much sense as FIFA would, if it suddenly announced new regulations re what constitues a valid goal and what does now, AND INSISTED THAT SUCH REGULATIONS ARE RETROACTIVE when deciding on the validity or otherwise of historically controversial gaols like Maradona;s (in)famous ‘Hand of God’ Goal.

I say , let the little folk be and let them enjoy their lawfully obtained little properties whose construction they were not responsable for, in peace.

As far as I know Mintoff’s Gharix was built irregularly , yet, not only did he have it sanctioned , but he even got compensation because its value plummetted when the power station was built. .

To H.E. Richard Cachia Caruana.

Dear Colleague and friend, For more than a quarter of a century we have been virtually collaborators and vigilant in seeing our beloved Malta not only to punch above its weight but to successfully overcome difficult situations and challenges leading to the winning of seemingly impossible battles if not wars! Richard, nobody should ever doubt the meaningfulness of your potential and prowess but as we all very well know through personal experiences, jealousy breeds hate which are twin thieves… Those who matter know that the directions given to you to undertake have always been executed with unwavering loyalty until the goals are reached…Malta is proud of you…It is very true that the Jealous are troublesome but they are also a torment to themselves. There is no escaping the fact that Jealousy is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity…my humble word of advice to you as the quintessential prime mover of Malta’s international global development is to keep up the good work in flying high the flag of Malta. You still have a lot to contribute for the emerging beautiful and exciting Chapters of the History of the Maltese Islands..God Bless and good luck.

Anthony (Tony) De Bono..

Irrespective of yesterday, I still hold firmly with my message to Richard and being myself an Ambassador I do not mind if I have to face a ‘no confidence vote’. Throughout a career spanning more than 3 decades I have had occasions to negotiate myriad agreements aimed to enhance Malta’s international profile without prior consultations but on the basis of my full responsibilities arising out of my pertinent official position – Indeed as expected by every Civil Servant. Individuals with the highest degree of intellectual capacity, like Richard, are at a premium and Malta cannot afford to irrationally eliminate…

U iz-zejt issa tela’f wicc l ilma. Jien nghid li kull deni hudu b’gid u ahjar issa milli lejliet l’elezzjoni generali li jmiss.

Ftit hafna huma in-nies li naf jien li huma floating voters jew bierda politikament , jew Nazzjonalisti inkazzati (ghal xi raguni jew ohra), li javdaw lil Muscat U LESTI LI JIVVUTAWLU, specjalment issa li hu imdawwar ‘b’tilja Mintoffjani li lanqas Fredu Sant ma ried jidher mejjet maghhom meta kien leader! Nies bhal dawn, jippreferu jivvutaw b saqajhom billi ma jivvutawx milli jivvutaw lil Mr The-End-Justifies-The-Means Muscat.

Dr Gonzi , is-successi tieghek fl’edukazzjoni , sahha , ekonomija, investiment u ix-xoghol ma jmerijhom hadd. So please ikkoncentra aktar il laqghat tieghek fuq oqsma ohra fejn hemm l aktar tgergir u min fejn jintilfu l aktar il voti., u burokrazija zejda u azzjonijiet drakonjani min certa awtoritajiet, li minnha hadd ma jiehu xejn , SPECJALMENT il PN , razzanhom.

GD, as far as I know, no MEPA policy/regulation is enforced retroactively. Can you give one or two examples of such enforcement?

Ganni, the Pm cannot “clean his house” at this stage of the legislature. What do you suggest: that Pullicino Orlando, Mugliett and Franco Debono are expelled from the PN?

We have to wait for the elections before we can free ourselves of these elements; I don’t see any other way.
