					<description><![CDATA[@ Dr.F. Saliba, the PM can&#039;t just pull the plug on these stooges. He is not a dictator.

The PN executive committee didn&#039;t do their homework in 2008 and allowed these ego maniac people to stand on the PN ticket. In 2008 I never heard of these people, but the committee knew them very well.

The PM&#039;s options are few and has to be handled very delicately. The PM&#039;s responsibility, in addition to running the country, is to kick them permanently out of the party and at the same time win the next election. A very tall task at the moment.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Power corrupts and absolute power tends to corrupt absolutely.

Unfortunately, Franco, Jeffrey and Jesmond have had power thrust upon them by pure chance and not through any merit of their own.

Fortunately, the Prime Minister has the power to render them powerless instantaneously as soon as he decides to do so.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[You know, in view of recent events, I believe that JPOS has overtaken Franco Debono as the most hated individual on the island. 

Franco behaves like a 10-year-old brat throwing tantrums (albeit ones with serious consequences).

But this Jeffrey.... Jeffrey strikes me as being a nasty piece of work. Evil even. He&#039;s a proven liar and a piece of shit.

Richard Cachia Caruana colluding with the Labour Party? This coming from someone who&#039;s sharing his bed with a Labour candidate? Fuck off, Jeffrey.]]></description>
