What changes have been made because of that idiot of Franco? That criminals are now running scot free instead of being where they should be? In prison? 

What changes did he make? He could not make any changes. Only Karm Mifsud Bonnici had the authority to effect changes - which he did. Franco was a NOBODY.]]></description>

Daphne, Ghandu x&#039;jaqsam hafna. I am sure you know quite well, that there is a difference between being arrested and being judged and punished.
The fact that , as you say, we still have policeman/soilders acting on their own initiative, makes one dread the idea that we are living in some third world country.
That was a very lame excuse and God forbid that we are nearing the times when  peace enforcment officers,can act  as to their whims and allowed to act on their own initiative.

Each and every officer has to answer for the actions of his subordinates, and than there is also political responsibility of the minister in charge, and finally if the primeminister does not take the appropriate actions, The buck stops there.

So let&#039;s stop this  talk about the golden years,we are still there.]]></description>

I&#039;m as right as they come.
The problem with persons like you is that you are actually Left but think you are right.
You just don&#039;t have an inkling of what being right really means.
Just living in a fool&#039;s paradise.]]></description>
