There&#039;s a beautiful group of olive trees, driving past Lija cemetery before turning up to Villa Francia, which I think deserve care and attention.  Absolutely fantastic, all gnarled and twisted along the contours of the field.]]></description>

It&#039;s implied that there will be continuity between what this government is doing and what they intend to do. 

Even because it will be practically impossible to perform any radical surgery notwithstanding what Silvio says. They need the civil service in place. 

So in a way, there should be no difference between today&#039;s PL and the PN, anzi, Joseph&#039;s PL owns elements of vintage PN, the &#039;exPN&#039; whereas GonziPN is a personal construct. 

At least that&#039;s what they seem to believe. 

Interesting concept, with one minor defect; politics. Will it be income tax or VAT? Pensions or obligatory civil service? Sargas or djar ghal-komunita&#039;? 

As usual, they underestimate those who&#039;re pouring money into their media machine. No, he can&#039;t see it coming. 

Unless he intends to recreate a diorama of Maltese politics inside the &#039;national movement&#039;  to practise sorting out the differences, he&#039;ll find this fictitious map impossible to tame. 

Word has it the &#039;l-ewwel nitilghu, mbaghad naraw&#039; applies primarily to him.]]></description>
