Big-head, pompous Joe Grima should note that Barroso sacked Dalli after having read the report he received.I am sure Barroso did not act without having a fool-proof background story. Joe Grima should shut his mouth. One can see what type of a person he is when he went begging the Nationalist Party for a job at the NET set up. No person with some decency would stoop so low.

Unbelievable ! Has this chamaleonte forgotten when his party was in government with a minority of votes, now he is saying Gonzi has no majority? My My Mr Busy Barroso is in cahoots with tal-Pieta! These people always thought we are the fior del mondo (including their brains). They never changed or change.

… u ma qal xejn dwar il fatt li 80,000 minn hutna qed jghixu fil faqar. Probably, Mr Barroso, like me, took that statement with a pinch of salt, especially when this time he himself could observe the number of obese people in Malta, not only but even statistically, the Maltese (men, women and children) are almost always topping the lists of obesity surveys.

Joe Grima should note the following:

Code of Conduct for Commissioners:

“2.1 Resignation of Commissioners
A Member of the Commission shall resign, if the President so requests, in conformity with article 17.6 of the Treaty (TEU).”

http://ec.europa.eu/commission_2010-2014/pdf/code_conduct_en.pdf

Article 17.6 of the Treaty:

“A member of the Commission shall resign if the President so requests.”

Those are the rules of the game.

Ma nohodiex bi kbira daqsekk din ta’ Joe Grima ghax ahna li xofna l-imrar ta’ gvernijiet Laburisti kollha nafu li dawn dejjem kienu nies li jorganizzaw il-korruzzjoni, u oltre minn hekk meta kien jissemma xi hadd kienu jiddefenduh.

Ahna niftakru zmien li biex igib television tal kulur, telphone jew xi affarijiet li kienu ipprojbiti kont ridt thalla lil ministri taz-zmien il-Labour. Dan missu jghidlu Joe Grima lil Barroso. Joe Grima jiftakar tajjeb dawk iz-zminijiet u qatt ma’ jitkellem dwarhom. Anzi kien kontra Alfred Sant ghax prova jnehhi dik l-anqbuta korrotta mill-partit tal-Labour.

U kif qal xi hadd bdiet tfaqqa l-bomba li dawn tal-Labour baqghu kontra l-EU b’sahha u hdura liema bhala. Ma’ hemmx dubju li jekk Alla hares qatt jitla il-Labour inkwiet kbir ikollna mal-EU u l-pajjiz jerga jmur il-bahar bhal ma’ konna fi zmien meta Joe Grima kien Ministru.

This time, at least, Joe Grima stopped just short of treating Barroso to one of his famous “f**k you” compliments.

In reply to Jozef. Let's call Kev; he's the resident expert on conspiracies.

He is certainly not one of the 80,000 dying of starvation.
