					<description><![CDATA[It was not until my mid teens (1987) that I realized that people who lived in the past actually had colours, and were not living in black and white as we saw them on TV.

Now, at 40, I&#039;m preparing myself for a future in grey.

&quot;Everything under the sun is in tune, but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.&quot;

Isn&#039;t it ironic?]]></description>

The 600 million Euro question.

So many thousands have been asking themselves just that - the answer somehow escapes us. ]]></description>

The reform removed the sanctioning process from the equation.

Basically, proceed to break rules get sanctioning later, isn&#039;t theirs any longer. It&#039;s clear the amnesty, in their book, shouldn&#039;t discriminate objective criteria.

We can&#039;t have &#039;developers&#039; disciplined to a market now can we?  

Jackie Mercieca was on ONE trying her best to turn rule of law into some oppressive measure, albeit defining herself &#039;ambjentalista&#039;.

The problem here is the mentality they want to bring back, mistaking it for individual right. 

Aesthetics and a sense of order, by deduction, fascist.]]></description>

To me, the MLP are a joke, good for laughs and nothing more.

Alfred Sant loses a confidence vote and subsequent election in 1998.

They keep him as leader.

He campaigns for &#039;No&#039;, spoil ballot paper, abstain, on the EU referendum and loses.

Not content with this fine display of democracy from the Maltese voters, he chooses to ignore the result, pretends &#039;partnership&#039; won, and says if MLP wins election then Malta will not join EU.

When MLP loses again, Sant resigns but MLP begs him to come back.

Finally when the serial loser loses again in 2008 they decide to get a &#039;younger&#039; model as leader.

Here we are, less than 5 weeks from the election, and still nothing produced to say what and how and how much.

They are a big joke and if Malta votes MLP into power then the joke will be on the whole country.]]></description>
