					<description><![CDATA[Dalli chose former AD chairman Harry Vassallo as one of his staff in Brussels because according to him Vassallo is very knowledgeable in the field.

Let&#039;s not forget Harry Vassallo&#039;s hdura towards GonziPN before the last election, claiming that he was arrested days before the election because he did not pay VAT. 

Vassallo also went to celebrate with Labour supporters at the MLP club in Naxxar when stupid Jason told Labour supporters to start celebrating.

Was this choice made in defiance of Gonzi? I wouldn&#039;t be surprised.

Dalli is surely not being considered a Nationalist at this point and hasn&#039;t been for a few years now. One hopes that Labour will not come out claiming that Gonzi&#039;s govt suffered another blow with Dalli&#039;s resignation. 

If anything, l-ghaqda tal-progressivi or better l-ghaqda ta l-ghajjurin u mdejqin did, for making him feel so welcome at One TV just because he has a lanzita for Gonzi because he lost the leadership race to him.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Anybody watched One TV today?  What did they have to say about their much beloved guest of honour on Hamilton&#039;s Bla Agenda? Are they saying that Gonzi&#039;s government suffered another blow now? I wouldn&#039;t be surprised, the hypocrites.

Maybe with hindsight Gonzi should have discarded Dalli completely and not sent him on such a highly paid job (in the region of  20,000 euros monthly) whilst he seems to imply on One TV that Gonzi got rid of him. Vera wiccu ma jafx jisthi.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - The high salary has nothing to do with it. The point at issue is the sheer irresponsibility of sending somebody so obviously high risk, who would find the temptations too difficult to ignore. Effectively our problem was dumped on others. You just don&#039;t do that. And now look at the consequences.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[So we just take your word for it. Actually your friend&#039;s word as you weren&#039;t there yourself at Peppi&#039;s.

Daphne has spoken? We can stop there and take it as fact!

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - You&#039;re sounding desperate. And this from somebody who takes Super One, Jeffrey Pullicino, Franco Debono and Maltastar as the gospel truth...Yes, I do take his word for it. Unlike you, I know him.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>
