Iced coke, you got it totally wrong on Pitre. 

Pitre is just a victim of a deep-rooted propaganda machine. Some people befriended him during a vulnerable time in his life with the intention of dragging him into this situation.]]></description>

Can Audrey tell us if she would have had the opportunity to be accepted as a police officer (2000) and a MEPA officer (2006) as well as offered the opportunity to read for a diploma, then a degree and finally a Masters in Art and Creativity, while at the same time being a full time mother (http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20100425/university/audrey-harrison-mother-student-actress.304389), back in the days of Labour?

Is she another one who expected a teaching role at the university?

From what I have seen, most of these switchers are only after their own selfish interests: new jobs (Willy Mangion), easy cash (Kenneth Zammit Tabona, Pitre), promotion (Ramona Frendo - magistrate, judge anyone?), spite (Drake, Bencini and the Muglietts).]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There seem to be two types of switchers: those out of convenience and those suffering from the Stockholm syndrome. 

It is no coincidence that all the Patty Hearsts out there have lived through the worst years of Labour and have done so in fear. 

Just like Patty, after voting Labour in they will deny any responsibility for having elected a morally and ethically bankrupt prime minister.]]></description>
