					<description><![CDATA[If Cyprus funds are finding their way to Malta it is only because MALTA is a safe proposal for business, for investments and for everything and this is only THANKS TO GONZI PN and not to Joseph Muscat and his Labour Party who wanted us to go down the &quot;Cyprus way&quot; so that we would end up into the brick wall which Cyprus has crashed into. 

And I won&#039;t gloat about it like that fool by the name of Frederick Testa, because with such a large cabinet of ministers we may still be on that cursed road to damnation. I don&#039;t gloat about the misfortune of others.]]></description>

Harry, was thinking recently about what had happened to the trio of finance and economy speakers employed by Joseph Muscat while on the opposition benches: Charles Mangion, Karmenu Vella and Edwarrrd Scicluna.   I mean them three here:

Mentioned a week ago, Ciccio, that, with a commie government, my friendly international economic ambulance chasers would soon put Malta under their banking vulnerabilty radar. 

Although, erroneous comparisons with other EU countries put us at the top of the list of &#039;potential problems&#039;, the charts and pictures employed speak a thousand words. 

However, with these incompetent yahoos in charge, frankly, we&#039;re about to be fucked.]]></description>

Let us see how Little Joey and his Minister of Finance will deal with this.  

The last thing we want is someone in the British media undermining our banking system after our own Minister of Finance sends signs of discouragement in articles he writes in the media, the purpose of which really was to tell us and everyone that he sat next to a German Minister of Finance. 

The Minister should have written what he wrote on The Times of 19 March in a private letter to Joseph Muscat - it was Muscat who had advised Dr. Lawrence Gonzi to follow the &#039;economic miracle&#039; of Cyprus.]]></description>
