Why did they not investigate this matter back in January 2013?  It is too late now.  Konrad Mizzi is already at Delimara, drafting a 10 year power purchase agreement - the first of its kind in the world.  

Speaking of PPA, as far as I am aware, the Labour movement never said it would enter into gas purchase agreements, since the movement never said it would build and operate a gas plant.  

The movement has always stated that it will buy electricity under a PPA from a private operator who will in turn build the gas plant.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Rewarding blackmailers and traitors is also sending out the wrong message to young people. 

Instead of installing a sense of values and morals in them, it is teaching them that evil pays, that the liars and swindlers are rewarded while righteous people are downgraded and set aside. This does not augur well for the behaviour and performance of these youngsters when they are older.]]></description>

&quot;Joseph Muscat uses anybody as long as he gets what he wants.&quot;

There will always be somebody wanting something.  This is what will ensure that the pyramid is refreshed and the prize always offered to the person offering the best &#039;value&#039; in the exchange. 

The announcements of the past two weeks are also an announcement or confirmation that this is the way the game is being played. 

Survival of the fittest in this territory and automatic recycling of the comparative deadweight &#039;underachievers.&#039;]]></description>
