Anyone who forgets the past is condemned to repeat it.

Also he didn&#039;t help a bit with trying to raise university lecturers&#039; pay a few years ago, he was the stumbling block, I guess.

When MUT was replaced by another union, things actually happened and the raise was given.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The amount of comments on this post shows where the people’s worries are.

Muscat is putting up a too-good-to-be-true act and people are losing faith in him.

The typical Maltese would ask: what’s behind all this?

Same applies to the PN: the unwritten message of the PN is that Gonzi will have Simon by his side like Eddie had Gonzi. It is clear that both tandems worked and can work.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Catalonia and Scotland were informed that if they obtain independence from Spain and the UK respectively, they will not be considered part of the EU, and if they opt to, they need to apply for membership and go through negotiation process. 

Originally both region took continued EU membership for granted, in particular Catalonia, whereas they believed that they will simply become a new EU member automatically, which will not the case. This has worried a lot of Catlonians, who are overwhelmingly in favour of the EU.]]></description>

She was even more superb before the House of Representatives committee this evening.. One very tough lady.

She was very pleasant in her replies, however, the underlying implication was, &#039;Pound shit Congressmen, I know where I&#039;m at, take your shot, duck when I shoot back!&#039;

Really hope she goes for the big prize in 2016.

The contrast with Malta Labour Party&#039;s moteley crew is overwhelming.]]></description>

John &quot;watch-us-strike-at-the-drop-of-a-hat&quot; Bencini&#039;s answer to my taking him to task for denying my children a day&#039;s schooling which I had paid for at considerable expense was to foam at the mouth and accuse them (and me) of being ASBO candidates.

I&#039;ll let those that know me judge for themselves. 

But as for my children, (in all humility), I challenged Bencini to find one single teacher who had ever come across them and found them to be anything but a model of civility and politeness. Of course, he couldn&#039;t.

If this natural born cowardly weasel has gravitated to Labour, I for one am not surprised.]]></description>

It is being predicted that Joseph will climb the steps to Castille and what you are saying is already happening and has been happening for the past year or so.

If we end up having to forfeit the Euro, then it will be up to Santa Rita tal-Impossibbli and il-Madonna tal-Grazzja together with the Redentur tal-Isla and San Gorg Preca to save Malta Taghna Lkoll.]]></description>
