					<description><![CDATA[Apart from being in complete agreement that Robert Abela had no place at the mass meeting since he will not be contesting the election, I&#039;m rather perplexed as to why he or any other member of his family should feel indebted to the Prime Minister or the PN in general. The latter did not &#039;make his father President of the Republic.&#039; The President of the Republic is appointed by the House of Representatives.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Don&#039;t be ridiculous. Nominations for president of the republic are made by the prime minister. The house then votes. The house cannot pick its own man. It can only veto or approve the prime minister&#039;s choice.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[No, his father should not explain to him (his son) but to the whole country and is expected to make a public apology for his son&#039;s ungrateful and unacceptable behaviour. 

His father is the President of Malta and not merely Robert&#039;s father. Is there any stronger evidence of being a Laburist means &#039;arroganti, ingrat u marmalja&#039;?]]></description>
