Something is wrong here or I have completely misunderstood your last sentence.

Assuming that you had the right to vote, you were not so wise to leave Malta a month ago which means one less vote against those bastards who played Elvis songs as your grandfather&#039;s coffin passed by their club in Paola. 

You left  &quot;just in case a repeat of 1977 and 1997 takes place&quot;?

Forgive me, but I cannot see the logic behind your (in)action.]]></description>

Mr Sciberras,

My argument is very simple: one should respect and accept other people&#039;s views and beliefs exactly like my grandfather professed and practised and not adopt &quot;an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth&quot; approach whatever the circumstances.]]></description>

Mr. Micallef, on 9 March, Malta is set for a repeat of 1971-1987 (the Golden Years) and 1996-1998 (the forgotten years).  
I do not think that Malta has grown up.]]></description>

Thanks. I couldn&#039;t find it last week for some reason.

Now I wait for Labour&#039;s to compare.

If Labour don&#039;t do one in English then by default PN gets the vote.]]></description>

Mr Micallef, I really cannot follow your arguments.  

You seem to be sticking up for someone who is supporting a party who you confirm had been vile towards your grandfather and who made you leave your job and your island twice.  

You are also saying you are so scared (although hopeful that you are wrong) of Labour that you are leaving the island in anticipation.  And yet you try to make the point that this Lara Boffa (your cousin, I suppose) has every right to join the Labour Party and do not see this as betrayal.  

I would consider it betrayal even to yourself let alone to your grandfather.]]></description>
