					<description><![CDATA[This Audrey Harrison wants more. She was given all the tools to go to university  as a civil servant, went to live in Marsaxlokk and now she’s complaining about the non existent smoke from the tall chimney which was built ages ago.

To put her mind at rest and that of others the exhaust fumes going out of the Delimara power station are continuously monitored and available on line.

Oh I see that this excuse which she dished out at the Eden Arena does not feature on the billboard. 

Labour knows that it does not hold water.

What we’re not told is that her husband is Assistant Police Commissioner Neil Harrison.

The more I see and read about switchers the more I’m convinced that Gonzi’s last five years have been based on meritocracy.]]></description>

&quot;... I consider myself as a man of average intelligence&quot;

Let others decide whether you are of average intelligence, Silvio. Self-praise, even if modest, is not on.

By what you write, you can&#039;t be that bright.

If the Nationalist Party is bad by your assessment and you switched to Labour, then it&#039;s not a case of not being bright. It verges on being stupid.]]></description>

You will still get the government that you deserve and there is no way how your conscience could be cleared, just because you did not vote.

If you really think that Joe&#039;s hotchpotch movement is the best government for Malta in these times of turmoil, then you are duty bound to vote it in power, and not abstain.

Just keep on cutting your nose to spite your face (actually the Maltese translation suits you even better!)]]></description>

Maybe she has been offered the position of a magistrate or judge.

Same as for Audrey Harrison - my feeling is that with a Masters in Creativity, she expected to be offered a University or a national theatre job. And when this did not materialise, then she became INvolved with hamburger Joe&#039;s movement.]]></description>
