Oh what’s the use.

(As if we’d ever have got anything done if it weren’t for il-barrani keeping an eye on us from Brussels. )

George Grech: You mention marriages. Normally marriages break up after some time, sometimes after many years. But the BWSC power station is alreadyb having very serious problems before the ” marrriage” has been announced !

Josephine: Don’t you remember that before we had the labour government in 1971, there had been a PN government in the 1960s ? I remember the electricity and water cuts of those times too ! But ironically, we are having the same electricuty cuts TODAY after so many years of PN governments !!!!!!!

H.P. Baxter: I have been to Switzerland too. I realized that for a country to prosper, it doesn’t have to join the EU. It depends on its people and governments. The EU doesn’t change that, as it has shown in Greece, Spain, Ireland etc..etc.. !

…and there it is, the hallmark of a true Mintoffian – ending comments on blogs with insults…

Sometimes I feel angry at the PN because they do not ‘propagandise’ their wares enough.

I forgot to mention the subsidy on double insulated windows,and the opportunities students are getting with government/EU aided scholarships amounting to €8,000 per student.

This government does not hand out money in subsidies but pushes you in investing in your future…you have to fork out your part and it forks out the rest,creating a win-win situation.

So was it LM 300?

I will tell you what I got more.

I got a “parent rate” in income tax. I have a daughter at university who has a stipend which your Labour Party will again meddle with.

I’m not at all surprised by your stupid comment which is repeated ad nauseam: the prime minister’s so called “raise”.

A prime minister of a small island like Malta deserves a salary of around €200,000 considering that he should be 24/7 on the job and that he manages a budget of €2,000,000,000.

I’m sure he’s not getting that much, but around half of that, which by the way is the total income lawyers like Franco Debono, Anglu Farrugia and Jose’ Herrera earn with less effort.

How would you, Eddy, explain why people like Jose’ and Anglu would occupy the seat of a minister for a pittance of €500 per week less for all the work and travelling a minister has to do in this day and age?

There are two answers to my question, either they love their country so much that they are ready to sacrifice everything to serve us like Nerik Mizzi did, or else they will trade in influence.

Probably the commission Joseph Muscat will set up will conclude that the ‘raise’ the ministers got was more than fair.

On second thoughts I think that the Minister for the South would deserve less than the salary the ministers had – after all, if you pay peanuts you get monkeys.

I am waiting for a sincere reply which I will keep in my records.

Privitera, ma tantx int mgharuf biex tirrispondi. Mela ha nerga insaqsik ghar reba darba. Bhala attivist kontra l-EU x’ qed tistenna biex tressaq mozzjoni f’ konferenza tal-MLP biex Malta tohrog milEU? Issa ghamel ftit kuragg u irrispondi mhux tahrab u tistahba.
