					<description><![CDATA[Chris Cardona has been sending promotional SMSes to my mother. 

She could not SMS back to &#039;unsubscribe&#039; and called Go many times to try to stop them. 

These SMSes came in at times like 8.15am or 10pm. 

My father has been very sick in the past months and recently passed away. They still came it at those inconsiderate times. Where do they get the numbers from?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Labour have from the start of this been doing their utmost to dispel the idea that we will be buying a power station. 

They make sure they call it a &#039;unit&#039; whenever they mention it, never mind that it is not just a complete power station but actually even more than just a power station. 

It passes the duck test on all counts - If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Am I the only one who is irritated with this kind of door to door salesmanship of power stations?

A year ago the Labour media and Malta Today barraged us with John Dalli’s Sargas coal fired power station trying to convince every Tom Dick and Harry on this rock that it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread . When someone pointed out that a cable connecting Malta to the rest of Europe was going to provide us with 200Mw the Sargas SALESMAN said that we could export our excess electricity to the rest of Europe! This was coming from the one who wants to obliterate the“Cancer factory” .

This was Gonzi’s reasoning a year ago.He didn’t change one iota in his arguments for a pipeline.
http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20111219/local/PM-lays-into-Sargas-proposal.399032

The choice should be on making the country independent. “I prefer having the interconnector cable between Malta and Sicily, the Delimara extension working and the gas pipeline with Europe, which will allow us to buy energy at European prices,” he said.

These PL Tupperware Ladies are trying again to sell us another power station which we don’t really need. They’re trying to tell us that we NEED to virtually scrap the interconnector project by using only 20% of its capacity and take no benefits from the smart meters .Instead they’re telling us to carry and store gas to Delimara in shiploads when we can have a gas pipeline project on the way financed by the EU !


We have to buy what Joseph wants to sell us not because our next door neighbour bought  one, but because someone is &#039;sucking our blood&#039; in the form of an 0.5% commission on these oil purchases , what they don’t tell us is that the interconnector won’t be burning any fuel in Malta and there wouldn’t be any commissions on the contract . Believe it or not,commissions are paid to company representatives of LNG suppliers also.

Sort of like Lydia Abela said: “Let’s change the clique&quot; ,”mhux dejjem huma”!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not defending anyone who had a conflict of interest at Enemalta or is proven to be corrupt. I can understand that ‘senserija‘ is part of the oil trade and agents/representatives don’t get their hands “dirty” by taking commissions on product sales.

Do these Tupperware Ladies think that we’re so insane to approve this half a billion euro door to door sale? There will be no cooling off period on this one.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[All that Labour did is that they have waited for the PN to come out with their serious proposals for our future and they are now copying the same proposals without having worked the costs for such proposals.

Whilst the PN is fully equipped with all the details to primarily explain to the people the details of their proposals, and secondly to reply to any questions anyone might have on any of their proposals.

All this clearly means that the PN is the party who have serious and solid proposal for the future of our country.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Labour are all fully aware that the people did not like the idea and that they made a huge mistake with this proposal.

Now they even put Konrad Mizzi aside as they realised that he was taling nonesense when challenged by the real professionals on the subject. 

Konrad Mizzi thought that he will be challenged by some mentality like that of a Dockyard worker but when he was asked questions by certain people he got totally confused and had no replies at all. 

So now Labour are doing their best to change the tune about this stupid proposal.

The fact is that Labour was in oppostion for nearly 25 years less 22 months and during all these years they were not able to come out with a decent electoral programme yet. All Labour did they]]></description>
