Yes, whatever happened to John Dalli ? Many still say that he is CORRUPT. How about having some insight into what went on on the night he was questioned by the police. There seems to be a serious conflict of interest as the police were supposed to investigate Daewoo and the anonymous letters and the allegedly fake Jersey bank statement.

Dear Dwardu, do you remember the MLP billboard saying that Malta will get Lm1.5 million from the EU? Well that was wrong, as you should know. 

It was nearer to 1 billion. Be credible (if you can). I understand that you still are against the EU. What mentality. Most probably you would have preferred a partnership with Ceaucescus&#039;s Romania, Tito&#039;s Yugoslavia, Gaddafi&#039;s Libya, or Kim il Sung&#039;s Korea. 

And by the way, no regrets Alfred Sant (who is now aiming for a goody job in Brussells) did not come up with the Svizzera fil-Mediterran. It was his arch enemy Dom Mintoff who came up with the idea more than sixty years ago. ]]></description>

Instead, Malta got Lm 1.6 million which miraculously kept increasing to 855 million euro with a further 628 million for the next 7 years.

Joining the EU as full members brought order how we do things, update laws, and conduct Budget processes.

Had we become &#039;Partners&#039; (which doesn&#039;t exist), we would still be in the same morass like we were in during the &#039;golden years&#039;, undisciplined, uncontrolled, undemocratic, etc., etc.

We are still burdened by characters like AST, KV, EB, JDG, LB et al. Just imagine if these plus others are given key ministries should the LP win next election!  Mamma mia, x&#039;biza. X&#039;dizastru.]]></description>
