					<description><![CDATA[I call it the saturation point. Malta cannot remain held up by those who cannot subscribe to the real world. Too much at stake. 

Labour tries to justify itself by relegating policy to a number of individual wishlists. 

Where individual interest groups get something. That&#039;s usually their interest alone. 

When Musumeci explained Labour&#039;s reform, he unwittingly outlined why people like him stand to gather. No way will he form part of a reform which puts his role to rigorous use. 

I look at the PN&#039;s proposals regarding the property market and the exact opposite is underlined: 

Stimulating demand instead of inflating supply coaxed by the &#039;developers&#039;. 
Preempting the bubble and avoiding risk to the value of property at the same time. . 

Owen Bonnici gave the game away yesterday, his words were clearly on behalf of the building lobby. The disadvantages he mentioned were those of the speculators. How dare owners get to hire property, maybe even put what buyers are looking for on the market? 

What happens to the lobby&#039;s unwanted stock?  

Even Astrid seems confused, chum enough to let it pass and ignore the PN&#039;s proposals which dovetail with her supposed mission. 

Who said that&#039;s hers anyway? 

The same can be said for education, energy, health, you name it, the style in policy is in total contrast. It is the difference.]]></description>
